Beočin

Beočin - the "white father". Not a bad way to spend a few hours if you feel the need to escape Novi Sad. Departures from the main bus station in Novi Sad at 10:35, 12:15, 13:20, 14:20, 15:10 and 16:00.  Line 78. One-way ticket costs around 180 RSD, a little over 1 GBP. Buy tickets at the counters inside the main building. 

Three landmarks of note to see - the Church of St.Vasilije Ostroški (Orthodox), Beočin monastery (Orthodox) and the restaurant Beli Čin is well worth a visit owing to its etno-style charm and relaxed atmosphere.

Church of St. Vasilije Ostroški - the miracle worker

Restaurant Beli Čin 

As you can see below, the etno-style Restaurant Beli Čin is worth a visit for the sake of its peaceful and charming surroundings. We didn't try any food but we have heard that the products are local and meals are freshly made. We wouldn't expect otherwise. The owner is most helpful and he even called his friend to drive us back to Novi Sad.

As you walk to the monastery from St. Vasilije Church, you will see the restaurant on your left hand side.
