Сокобања
A famous Serbian spa town with the ruins of the medieval Sokograd fortress on the cliffs outside town and waterfalls on the Moravica River.
Sokobanja lies about 60 km north of Niš and is renowned for its fresh air and hot-spring therapy. The town center has an Ottoman-era Turkish bath and a lively pedestrian street. The Sokograd fortress ruins on a cliff outside town overlook the valley. Nearby are small waterfalls on the Moravica River and lakeside trails. It takes about 1.5 hours by long-distance bus from Niš, so you can visit as a day trip or stay overnight.
