There are also testimonies to the Roman presence in this region. Tabula Traiana and remains of Traian's bridge, Viminacium near Kostolac, palace Felix Romuliana near Zajecar. The fortress of Golubac will take you to the medieval time, and the fortress of Fetislam to the Ottoman epoch. 
It is hard to decide if east Serbia is richest with cultural-historic monuments or with natural beauties. The signature of this region is given by Danube with its Djerdap gorge, one of the most beautiful in Europe. Caves are open for tourist visits; Srebrno jezero (Silver Lake) is ideal for hot summer days. And you must not miss to visit the canyon of river Vratna.
