I was actually shocked at how poorly maintained this place is. It's a UNESCO world heritage site, they have plenty of staff on site, you pay 500RSD to enter, and the place is a mess. Grass looks like it hasn't been mowed for months, there's piles of random stuff piled up inside walls, buildings and all over the place, the sign boards are either so faded you can't read them or they are completely missing... The whole place is a disgrace! This is a pretty neat place to a UNESCO listed Roman archaeological site. The Felix Romuliana is quite large, which is great for exploring. They also have a regular introduction in English to the by a guide, which is part of the admission. Felix Romuliana, or Gamzigrad, is a of palaces and temples built by Emperor Galerius in memory of his mother Romula. The complex, currently in ruins, is a UNESCO heritage site. The surrounding wall with towers is especially well preserved. Most beutiful mosaics from the were moved to the local museum, unfortunately closed at the time of my visit. Staff members gave a short lecture as an introduction to the site, which was quite informative. Although this place is not as impressive as similar sites in Italy or other Mediterranean countries, a here is highly recommended for history buffs. This is a neat to see. The tickets are cheap, so it's worth it if you're driving through. The translations on signage are hilariously inaccurate. Felix Romuliana is a breathtaking 4th-century palace of Emperor Galerius — a must-visit! Located in Serbia, a land that produced 17 Roman emperors, this brilliantly showcases imperial power and heritage. Gamzigrad is an archaeological and UNESCO World Heritage of Serbia. The place is partially excavated but enough to tell you a story about. If you’re visiting Zaječar area it’s highly recommended. In Serbia, near the Bulgarian border there is this little piece of the mighty Roman Empire, back from III-IV century. The status of the ruins is awesome and you can actually see and touch the incredible details of the and decorations. The bricks were great conditions, amazing considering how many years have passed. The museum was closed when we visited, but nevertheless the Felix Romuliana was still worth it! I really recommend it, not only because is part of the UNESCO, but because it is hard to see such sites even in Italy. Guides are available in many languages to learn more about the site. A fortress so simple, yet complex, filled with culture, history and a relaxing walk through time. While there's not much to interact with, the vast area of ruins scattered across the field is quite unique. Remote location but worth the effort to spend a few hours just taking your time to learn about this place. If you love ancient stone, go for it! I'm ashamed to admit I visited it only at 26 and I've been living in Serbia my whole life. Also from Zajecar you can it by taxi it's super cheap to bring you here. Very interesting historical site, well preserved and reconditioned. Close to the main road, worth a if you are passing nearby. Fantastic archeological site, with preserved ruins of what was once at the end of 2nd century AD residence of Emperor Galerius. Impressive fortifications, towers still in place and a wast of interior buildings create of this a unique occasion to understand the power, architectural ingenuity and lawishness of roman empire in its decline. Original mosaics can be seen in Museum of Zaječar just 10km away while the rest are for conservation purposes covered with send, thus invisible to public. There is one part of original artefacts including several mosaics on display in the left hand gate tower. There are guided tours in English as well, and the young and dynamic team of art historians and archaeologist are there to help you around. Absolutely a place to and enjoy the beauty of the nature and th magnificent mountain Rtanj on the way there. It will take you approximately 45mib of slow ride from highway exit at Paraćin to reach it. An ideal stop!
