Eastern Serbia » Istočna Srbija » | 95 LAZAR’S CANYON Cut into thick limestone rocks under the mountain of Malinik, covering a distance of nine kilometres of vertical, wild cliffs, complete with numerous fissures and caves, this area represents Eastern Serbia’s longest and deepest canyon. Only three to four metres wide in its narrowest part, it reaches depths of as much as 500 metres. In certain places, the river passes between natural stone blocks that have been wedged together to form natural bridges. The territory encompassed by the natural monument of Lazar’s Canyon is characterised by a wealth of exceptional natural treasures: a network of limestone canyon valleys of impressive dimensions and distinct morphological forms; numerous significant speleological objects (more than 70 caves and pits); rich flora and fauna etc. KRUPAJSKO VRELO Legenda kaže da se u Homoljskim planinama nalazi blago na dnu zlatne pećine za kojim stanovnici tog kraja i danas neumorno tragaju. O tome se može diskutovati, ali nema diskusije kada je reč o pravom blagu ovog kraja – Krupajskom vrelu, koje predstavlja pravi egzotični prizor sa svojim promenljivim nijansama zelene i plave. Krupajsko vrelo je jedinstvena prirodna oaza koja će učiniti da steknete utisak da ste u Tajlandu usred Srbije, u zagrljaju planine Beljanice, Kučajskih planina i Homolja. Tirkizna boja vode, obilje zelenila i visokog drveća, pećina iz koje voda izlazi konstanto puneći kraško jezero, kao i čitav ambijent, deluju kao razglednica koju ste upravo primili sa neke egzotične destinacije. KRUPAJa SPRING According to legend, the Homolje Mountains are home to a treasure that’s located at the bottom of a golden cave that the locals of this area still search for tirelessly. This claim could be up for debate, but there’s no debate when it comes to defining the real treasure of this area: the Krupaj Spring, which represents a truly exotic scene with its fluctuating hues of green and blue. Krupaja Spring is a unique natural oasis that will give you the impression that you are in “Thailand in the middle of Serbia”, wrapped in the embrace of the Beljanica, Kučaj and Homolje mountains. The water’s turquoise colour, the mass of greenery and tall trees around the spring, along with the cave fromwhich water constantly emerges to fill the karst lake, but also the complete ambience of this place, give the impression of observing a scene from a postcard that you’ve just received from some exotic journey.
