- Mediana - Start your guided city tour with a visit to the Archaeological site Mediana, a significant Serbian Late Antiquity site, constructed between the 3rd and early 4th century. The centerpiece is a villa with a peristyle, featuring over 1,000m2 of exquisite floor mosaics.
- Skull Tower - Proceed with your guided tour to Skull Tower, a grim reminder of the unsuccessful First Serbian Uprising against the Ottoman Empire in the early 19th century.
