From Garbage Dump into Paradise by Vera Waterfall
From Garbage Dump into Paradise by Vera Waterfall
We have written many positive stories so far, but today we must admit that our team is especially proud of the story of the people of Gevgelija, who are true heroes and promoters of local tourism in the village of Sermenin.
The village of Sermenin is located at the foot of Mount Kozuf. In the 1970s, the village began to decline, with many young people moving away. Today, however, the area is seeing the growth of new homes, vacation houses, as well as restaurants and private accommodations where you can taste local food. Sermenin is a natural air bath, and if you stroll through its streets, you'll notice many walnut trees, which the locals claim are a unique phenomenon. Another interesting fact is that the village has 7 cemeteries, with each neighborhood having its own, and there are two churches—one in the center of the village and the other about 4 kilometers away, nestled in picturesque nature.
Our team spoke with Ratka, who shared the story of the Vera Waterfall and the unique development they are creating with their own hands and financial resources. What left the greatest impression on us was the fact that the wooden path, stairs, fence, and illuminated pathway to the waterfall stretch for 80 meters. It took them two full months, together with the craftsmen Toše and Borče, to bring their envisioned idea to life.
Ratka says that they are not architects by profession, but with love, every idea is achievable. Today, just as they created access to the waterfall, they also take care of cleaning its surroundings. They are happy to have provided the local community with another attraction and a place where everyone can visit and enjoy the sound of the waterfall.
In addition to the praise, we must appeal to all travelers and adventurers who choose to visit the Vera Waterfall to be cautious with their children, avoid having more than one person on the bridge at the same time, and most importantly, to RETURN THEIR WASTE TO THE CITY TRASH CANS, because waste doesn't have legs to go back to where it belongs!
