SLOW AND FAST CITY LIFE IN VALJEVO by Marko Lazic
Are we lucky or unlucky to live in a relatively peaceful city?
Tesnjar by Lj.Ljiljak
Although Valjevo is one of bigger cities in Serbia you can still say that it’s a peaceful city.
The best thing about Valjevo is that there are not many people living in the town’s centre, and that is where the beauty of Valjevo lies. Pople like to linger there in cafes after their work.
Tešnjar is another good place to relax owing to its interesting architecture, in which old crafts and small shops are still preserved although the local government prefers to subsidise big supermarket chains. All these old houses, quiet streets and small shops make Valjevo one of most peaceful cities in our country, and we should be happy because of that.
Pople are always complaining that there are not many things to do in Valjevo but I think that in most cases they should blame themselves.
