Ethno Village ČARDAKLIJE

Today in Čardaklije we are still working and living as our ancestors did. Your experience can comprise of getting to know Čardak, the highest building on the property where meat and milk are prepared by traditional methods, to the Guest House, which is the central building of the village, containing our restaurant with 70 seating places and a garden that seats 200. Situated close by we have Bosnian houses where antique craftsmen’s tools are preserved, traditional jams and teas are prepared and finally there is a House of Fun for those who are lovers of a little tipple.

Čardaklije offers our guests a warm, natural atmosphere with traditional food and drink. For those who love an active break we offer horseriding or riding horse and carriages. Within the center we have a hall for educational and seminar purposes with a capacity for 50 persons. Close to the center is accommodation. These are traditional country homes comprised of apartments with 2 to 6 beds …

For some you will take a trip back to your childhood with the colour of dried rosehip tea, the odour of elderflower, the taste of plum jam all made by traditional recipes and for others this will be a truly unique experience. As your hosts, we are proud to have a beautiful natural environment that we cherish and want share with you.

Welcome to all our dear guests!
