This family's experience:

Activities: We saw the Church of St. Virgin Mary, built in the 15th century. It's one of the most remarkable buildings in the Old Town due to its low profile, built that way during Ottoman rule. The church was crowded during our visit

Highlights: We enjoyed the church's unique design, and we learned about the history of the Ottoman Empire ✨
