Šavnik – The Town Where the Sun Rises Twice

Šavnik – The Town Where the Sun Rises Twice

The town where you greet the sun twice

  Šavnik - the “Town of Two Dawns”! You may wonder how this is possible. In the morning, the sun rises behind Kravica Hill, and around 2 PM it sets behind Gradac Hill. But then, the sun appears again in the canyon of the Bukovica River, before finally setting behind Vojnik Mountain.

This unique natural phenomenon is just one of many that make our municipality truly special.
