  • Departure from Belgrade and a drive to the extreme north of Serbia. Arrival in Subotica - a town of Art Nouveau style, cultural heritage, and multicultural spirit. Close to the Hungarian border, Subotica is famous as the border between Central Europe and the Balkans and a crossroads of nations that traveled around southeastern Europe. On a city tour, explore Freedom Square, City Hall, the National Theater, City Library, Serbian Orthodox Church, Subotica Synagogue, City Museum, Franciscan Monastery, and Saint Teresa of Avila Cathedral. The Family Palace of Raichle is an unforgettable site in Subotica.

• Winery Zvonko Bogdan, Subotica
  • We finish with the excellence of this region: wine. The Pannonian Sea, which covered this surface during the prehistoric period, left hectares of sandy soil, perfect for the production of so-called "sand wines." The wine-growing tradition here is more than 2,000 years old, as the sandy terrain and mild climate create ideal conditions for growing Italian Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Hungarian Ezerjo, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet. The exquisite representative of winemaking is the Zvonko Bogdan Winery. A visit to its complex will show how modern production technology, a business-savvy marketing approach, and the traditional architecture of Palić create a splendid blend worthy of attention and respect.
