The village of Velmevci is the eternal resting place of voivode Jordan Piperkа and revolutionary Josifoski Jankula, giving it special historical and spiritual significance. This village is perfect for active tourism, cycling, and hiking through dense oak and beech forests, as well as for enjoying local specialties, homemade cuisine, and what we often miss most today – simple, deep PEACE.

The Ethno Villa in Velmevci is a story in itself.

What makes the villa even more special is its spacious yard with a well-kept lawn, gazebos, and an open view of the mountains. Here, mornings begin with coffee in peace, and days end with sunsets, conversations, and laughter under the open sky.
