Vršac (in Serbian Вршац) is relatively small town in Serbia, 84 kilometers from Belgrade. It is located in eastern part of Vojvodina, close to border with Romania. City has around 50000 residents.

[edit] Get in

• By car E-70 road (will be highway in the close future) connects Belgrade and Vršac. The road is in very good conditions due to reparation made because of European basketball championship in 2005.

• By bus There are many buses going from both Novi Sad and Belgrade, but they are inappropriate expensive (for such a small distance), but still the best option. Ticket from Novi Sad costs more than 900RSD and it's only 140 kilometers distance.

• By train There is only one train per day from Belgrade, the one that further continues to Bucharest in Romania.

Although Vršac is just 12 kilometers from Romanian border, connections are rather poor.

[edit] Get around

Town is very small and very compact, easily covered by foot, but reaching for example Vršac Tower can be time-wasting, good solution may be taking taxi which is very affordable.
