Zaječar in the rain

Eastern Serbia has a humid continental climate, so wet days happen. These destinations still work.

Indoors and underground

Museum, cave, thermal spa – three destinations that ignore the weather.

  1. 9:30 – 11:00

    National Museum

    Around 750 square metres of exhibition space in the centre.

  2. 12:30 – 15:00

    Lazar's Cave

    Serbia's longest cave, with an 800-metre visitor trail. Inside the weather is irrelevant – but it is always cold.

  3. 16:00 – 19:00

    Gamzigradska Banja

    Thermal water in the rain is not a contradiction – it is the ideal case.

3 days in Zaječar

The standard plan for first-time visitors: one day in town, one for the Roman heritage and thermal springs, one in the wine country. Without a car, days 2 and 3 only work in part.

Zaječar with children

The town is not a family destination in the classic sense, but it has enough open space, water and caves to fill two days.
