Welcome to Niš
Monument of Kalča biggest liar
Today I want to introduce you capital of south - east Serbia Niš.
Niš
About 240 kilometers from Belgrade, at the place where the roads to Bulgaria and Macedonia are separated, there is the seat of the former Roman Empire Naisus and today Niš.
Since Niš last weekend hosted a Davis cup national team of Serbia and the United States, I decided to come to Niš to watch the matches (Serbia lost unfortunately because it played in a significantly weakened form)
and as I see it as much as possible during my three-day stay in Niš. Niš is a city with an extremely rich history, very important for the Serbian people.
Throughout history, Niš was the birthplace of many well-known and significant figures, or some of the characters were of significance and spent their lives in Niš.
Today, Niš is a university city, the third largest in Serbia with a commercial airport, Konstantin the Great , which is the second largest in Serbia.

What to do in Niš?
In addition to the obligatory visit of sights and cultural values. If you are a grilled specialist, I recommend that you try something with barbecue wherever in the city. The prices are extremely affordable and the quality is excellent. If you are with a slightly deeper pocket, then you can relax with a snack from the Fancy Restaurant in Tinkers Alley . Where you find it you can see here
