See timetable and Buy TicketAbout the station UŽICE
In the basin of the Đetinja River, bordered by the peaks of Tara, Maljen and Zlatibor, below the remains of a medieval fortress, lies the city of Užice, the center of the Zlatibor District, where more than 70 thousand people live today. Užice is a regional center of culture, tourism, metal and mechanical industry and fruit growing. This hilly and mountainous region is dominated by forests, and the highest peak, Tornik, is located on Mount Zlatibor. The highway from Belgrade to the coast passes through Zlatibor, and direct bus lines have been established with Belgrade, Novi Sad and other cities. The Belgrade - Bar railway line also passes through the city, and bus lines are also well connected with surrounding cities.
Užice is an area that uniquely combines modern and traditional, original cultural flows and traditional life from the past.
The first reliable mention of the city was found in a document from the Dubrovnik Archives dated October 9, 1329.
In the 16th century, Užice was the center of a district and a kadiluk, and during the 17th century it became an important craft and cultural center.
In the very center of Užice, on St. Sava Square, the famous Jokanović House rests on wooden pillars. Built a long time ago, but renovated in the last decade and transformed into a museum exhibit, which with its appearance, furniture and beauty depicts bourgeois life in Užice at the end of the 19th century.
Užice offers a number of the best restaurants that serve very tasty and affordable food, mainly from traditional cuisine. Most of these restaurants are located in a pleasant environment, on the banks of the Đetinja River and next to Užice's conifers and mountainous areas.
Special attention is paid to rural tourism, which, combined with the wealth of flora, water and clean air, makes this area wonderfully unified. Tourism has been flourishing for decades, and the Tara National Park, Zlatibor Nature Park and Mokra Gora have contributed greatly to this.

About the destination GRAZ
Graz is the capital of Styria and second-largest city in Austria after Vienna, with the population of 320,000.
Graz has a long tradition as a "university town": its six universities have more than 44,000 students. Its "Old Town" is one of the best-preserved city centres in Central Europe.
Symbols of Graz, which are indispensable on all postcards, are:
- The Schloßberg or Schlossberg, a tree-clad hill, and the site of a fortress, in the centre of the Graz. The hill is now a public park and enjoys extensive views of the city. It is the site of several entertainment venues, cafés and restaurants, and is managed by Holding Graz, the city owned utility company.
- Innere Stadt is the first district of Graz. It is the part of the Old Town containing the Schloßberg and the city park (Stadtpark). The district borders are formed by the Mur river between Radetzkybrücke and Keplerbrücke, the Wickenburggasse, the Glacis, Jakominiplatz and the Radetzkystraße. In 1999, the Old Town was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
- Kunsthaus Graz, or Graz Art Museum was built as part of the European Capital of Culture celebrations in 2003 and has since become an architectural landmark in Graz, Austria. Its exhibition program specializes in contemporary art of the last four decades.
- Landeszeughaus, is the world's largest historic armoury and attracts visitors from all over the world. It holds approximately 32,000 pieces of weaponry, tools, suits of armour for battle and ones for parades.
- Pubs, that increasingly resemble those in Ireland and England, are concentrated around the historic core of the city.
