We’ll show you places that could be very interesting in the next days. This day is planned for a tour to the ethno village Sirogojno and Stopića pećina (cave). We are also going to visit El Paso city.
The ethno village Sirogojno is an open air museum that displays the architecture, interior design of buildings and the organisation of the family life of the people in this region. Extends on over 50 hectares of land and has about 50 buildings that have been relocated into the museum form the surrounding villages of Zlatibor.
The museum consists of two parts. The first is a set of houses that have preserved their original appearance and purpose, and they make up a permanent museum exhibit formed in two Zlatibor infeilds. The second group consists of houses that have preserved their original appearance, but their purpose has changed, they have been adapted to a tourist needs.

Stopića cave has been protected by the state as the natural monument.
The thematic park El Paso City (crossing) is named after the eponymous border town in the United States. Just as the Rio Grande River forms the natural border between the United States and Mexico, here, also the river that flows through the El Paso City complex on Zlatibor divides the two thematic units into American and Serbian parts.
At the same time, this is a meeting place of two cultures. On one side of the river there is a cowboy town and an Indian village, while on the other bank there is a Serbian part with a church and a nice hamlet of Zlatibor. Passing through El Paso City you will experience two different climates in the same time period from 1865 to 1890, but in different parts of the world.
The spacious thematic park offers to the visitors a number of attractions that are divided into several ambient units:
cowboy town
an Indian village
Zlatibor hamlet
