Introduction
This itinerary caters to travelers who wish to experience a rich blend of history, culture, and gastronomy, all packed into a sweet 3-day journey through Niš, Serbia.
Day 1 - Stepping into the Past
Start off your Serbian adventure by delving into the deep history of Niš. We kick off the day at the picturesque Niš Fortress, a 18th-century Ottoman marvel, where you can explore the narrow paths, and take in the panoramic view of the city from the top. Won't it feel great to see the entire city from up there? After catching lunch at a nearby restaurant, with their mouth-watering local dishes, we'll switch gears a little bit and head to the haunting but historically potent Crveni Krst Concentration Camp and the Bubanj Memorial Park. A solemn reminder of the city's sorrowful past, it's vital to understand everything that this city and its people has been through. Agree?
Day 2 - Embrace the City Vibes
On day two, it's time to hit the bustling city center! Roam around the vibrant Pedestrian Street, a hub for shopping and street performances. Got room for some delicious Serbian pastry? Visit the local bakeries and savor the taste of Burek. Next, it's time for a little breather at the serene Nišava River. Now, who said breather couldn't be exhilarating? We'll wrap up the day with a pulsating open-air concert at the Summer Stage. How's that for a vibrant day out?
Day 3 - A Gastronomic Extravaganza
Get ready, foodies! We are dedicating our last day to exploring the gastronomic marvels of Niš. Begin with a local breakfast of Kačamak and Proja, traditional Serbian dishes. Isn't it a great way to start the day? Up next, we'll head to the lively green market, Pijaca, where you can buy local fruits, vegetables, and delicacies. For lunch, we'll indulge in the famous Serbian barbecue. End your Serbian tour with dinner at a traditional Kafana, where you can experience heartfelt Serbian hospitality and traditional music called 'tamburica'. Hope you've packed the stretchy pants!
