Imperial palace was built in the fourth century for Roman Emperor Gaius Valerius Maximianus Galerius and it’s considered as the most preserved imperial palace in Europe. Today Felix Romuliana is on UNESCOS’s World Heritage List.

Tour starts from arranged point in the morning hours. From Belgrade to Gamzigrad  we are travelling on a highway to Paraćin, then over a moody mountain pass Čestobrodica, passing mysterious mountain Rtanj, which is believed to reflect an underlying pyramid. With stopovers for coffee and taking photos of wonderful scenes we reach Gamzigrad around noon.

Felix Romuliana (Happy Romula) is the name which Roman Emperor Galerius gave to the palace after his mother Romula. Turbulent history of the palace witnesses about periods of ultimate splendour, but also dreadful devastations, but one thing is sure, this palace is one the most beautiful palaces in Europe.

From Gamzigrad we continue to Bor – a mining town and one of the biggest copper mines in Europe, in order to visit deserted open pit mine which is the biggest artificially made dent in Europe. You can notice that there are a lot of places here in a very small area, which are the most famous in Europe for “something”. For observing this sight from Mars we will use terrace especially made for visitors.

After open pit mine we agree on where to have lunch, in nearby spring Brestovačka banja or in Grza at the foot of Čestobrodica.

For return journey to Belgrade there is an option to use road over mountains Crni vrh and Homolje, where nature is intact and full of diverse landscapes.

Return to Belgrade is in evening hours.
