Things to Do  

Good place to go Mokra Gora

Good place to go Mokra Gora, Uzice

 McCoq Says:  Uzice is placed moreorless between Mokra Gora and Zlatibor. So could be a good place to stay if you are planning to visit the Sargan Eight and the Zlatibor region, althought these 2 places have their own hotels. Connected to both towns with public bus service. 

Mokra Gora

Mokra Gora, Uzice

 Steph_Paris Says:  Around one hour from Uzice by bus, Mokra Gora is definitely a place to see. First for the Sargan Eight Railway, a lovely little train that goes through the gorgeous mountains of western Serbia. Second for the ethno-village of serbian film-maker Emir Kusturica, just 10mn... 

Walk in the green hills

Walk in the green hills, Uzice

Partisan Square (Trg Partizana)

Partisan Square (Trg Partizana), Uzice

 McCoq Says:  This big square, too large for a town of modest size, is the meeting pont for the young people at night. In summer the cafés put their chairs in the outside, and the square seem more animated, but in spite of this the square seems too large, and lacks of any focal point....

Public bus or auto-stop, Uzice

 McCoq Says:  To move around Uzice you just need to walk, but if you want to go to Mokra Gora or Zlatibor, you need to take the bus from the station, near the river. Ask the driver where to stop, and he will advice you when you arrive. Another option we did to return from Mokra Gora,...
