Historic Places And Monuments

Traces of history in the Balkans, have left behind countless sites and monuments for tourist attraction. Visiting them often brings tourists feelings of going back in time and reliving some of the most influential moments in history. In the Balkans, a tourist may expect old bridges, traces of old kingdoms, the remains of battles (wars), monuments, Spomeniks (monuments memorizing events during WWII). Other monuments are tombstones, fortresses, castles, cathedrals, towers and old monasteries. It is amazing how these old monuments have survived hard times and are here to make sure we do not forget past events that have given us what we now consider touristic recreation.
