Sommaire
Presentation
The Etno Selo Moravski Konaci created in 2007, is composed of several traditional Serbian houses. They have been brought from different parts of Serbia, restored and arranged here to revive this period to visitors.
These small houses have been remade with modern comforts to make them accommodations to suit the tastes of today’s clientele.
A lake and 9 small islands connected by wooden bridges are located in the center of the village and it is possible to walk around or even take a small boat trip.
A swimming pool is also available in summer but we did not enjoy it during our stay.
Traditional activities
Throughout the year, various activities around the theme of the village are offered.
It is also possible to meet artisans who are still working the old fashioned way like this traditional shoe manufacturer.
Marina did not resist taking a pair 😀
The church
The church is at the entrance of the village and is dedicated to St. Nikola.
It is possible to go inside to visit or buy different religious souvenirs.
The restaurant
It occupies the main location in the center of the village. This building is entirely built in wood too and its decoration mixes recent construction and different elements of typical Serbian decorations.
Even the staff wears a traditional outfit.
On the plate, you will eat more than enough and for an affordable price.
For 4 people we paid 3975RSD (33 €).
As you can see in the photos that follow, you will mostly find good traditional Serbian food.
The rooms
We did not sleep on the spot but the village has 19 rooms inside the traditionnal houses which are each more than 100 years old.
All modern comforts are there and you can even access a SPA / Wellness area with massage and sauna.
It may be for next time for us!
