Visting Romania from Smederevo

by GyuriFT

Do not know about any bus connections. For trains you either go back to Belgrade - or go to Dobreta Turnu Severin via Derdap Dam. Belgrade option sound easy but not very pleasant: there is only one direct train a day departing 15:55 and arriving 20:57 going via Pancevo-Vrsac-Stamora Moravita. That train is sloooow (and it's the Bucuresti "express"...). While in Belgrade, I did observe the cars of that train. Romanians sent their worst equipment and Serbs don't care less about that train (don't compare it with Beograd-Venice car or Avala train to Vienna, even to Thessaloniki looks much better). The public transportation between Yugoslavia and Romania never was really good: mid 70-s/80-s nothing was developed because of Ceasuscu and later the Balkan-turmoil did not contribute positively.The route via Derdap national park on the Serbia side, much closer to Smederevo sounds more interesting...

Join a Pilgramage

by Basaic

Join the locals in a pilgramage to the Church of the Black Madonna in Letnica. The pilgramage is held each August around the 14th, 15th, and 16th, in conjunction with the Feast of the Assumption, a Roman Catholic religious holiday. The pilgramage draws people of Catholic, Orthodox and Islamic faith as well as those of Albanian, Serb, Macedonian, Croat, Roma and other ethnic groups. All these ethnic groups coexist peacefully during the pilgramage. The pilgramage leads to the Church of the Black Madonna in the center of Letnica. The church is a stark white Catholic church, built in 1866. The site where the church is built has been considered a holy place since the 14th century. NOTE: The pilgramage is approximately 5 km over very rough terrain.
