We first went to Bursa /Turkey. We travelled by plane and landed in İstanbul. 

Look here is Bosphorus Bridge in İstanbul. It was amazing! Then we went to Bursa by bus. Bursa is an ancient city with many historic sites.

Here is Grand Mosque, grandma!

Bursa Grand Mosque (or Great Mosque) is a prominent landmark in Bursa’s downtown. With its 2 towering minarets and 20 domes, the building is one of the most impressive and important in Bursa. Ulu Cami is considered the fifth most important mosque in Islam

It looks fantastic, dear !

Wonderful !

This is Green Tomb Grandpa! The mosaics were fabulous!

The Green Tomb (Yeşil Türbe) is a mausoleum of the fifth Ottoman Sultan, Mehmed I, in Bursa, Turkey. It was built by Mehmed's son and successor Murad II following the death of the sovereign in 1421. The architect, Hacı Ivaz Pasha designed the tomb and the Yeşil Mosque opposite to it.

Here we are in Karagöz Museum! The museum is dedicated to the folkloric shadow play figures Karagöz and Hacivat. It was established in 2007.

Here is Ulu Mountain ! It is a ski resort! We used cable car while going to Ulu Mountain!

Everywhere was white ! The scenery was amazing!

Then we travelled to Belgrade by plane again. It is the capital of Serbia. There are trams and we went to see some interesting things.

This is Kalemegdan. It is the largest park and the most important monument in Belgrade. Its name is formed from 2 Turkish words: kale (fortress) and megdan (battle field). It is located at the banks of the river Sava and the river Danube.

Danube is the biggest river in Serbia. You can swim, fish and camp there. Danube is the most beautiful in the evening.

Then we traveled to a small town called Despotovac by car. There are some beautiful things.

Look grandma how beautiful it is. It is a waterfall called Veliki Buk. It is located in the eastern Serbia, on the right side of the river Resava. There is a small lake too. It is one of the largest waterfalls in Serbia. It is surrounded by trees, restaurants and a park.

Yes, honey. It is really amazing.

And look at this, grandpa. This is Resava Cave. It is 20 km from Despotovac. It is one of the largest and most beautiful caves in Serbia. It is a natural monument. It is 4,5 km long, but only 800m for visitors. The temperature in the cave is 7°c.,

Inside the cave, there are numerous halls, canals, galleries, pillars and waterfalls. There is red, yellow and white cave jewellery so it is also called "Resava Beauty". There are 4 levels, but only 2 for visitors. We were inside for 40 min.

Look what we ate there. It is a pig on a spit. It is a traditional Serbian food and it is delicious. There is also barbecue and the most famous is in Leskovac. And "burek", something like a pie, the most famous is in Niš.

I like this. It is "sarma". It is a home made meal with stuffed cabagge. It is good with cow` s milk cheese. Daddy drank "rakija", home made brandy.
