Serbia, located in the central part of the Balkan Peninsula, can rightfully be called "little Europe" due to its diverse natural landscape. Serbia is an unexplored oasis of the richest flora and fauna.
Most of the country is occupied by mountains and plateaus. The Pannonian plain is washed by the Sava, Danube and Tisza rivers in the northeast. The interior of the country and the southern mountains belong to the Balkans, and the coast is called the "hand of the Alps".
The plains are mostly cultivated, large areas in the intermountain and hollows are occupied by gardens, on the slopes of the mountains - coniferous, mixed and broad-leaved (mainly beech) forests. Along the Adriatic coast - Mediterranean shrubby vegetation. The fauna of Serbia is characterized by deer, chamois, fox, wild boar, lynx, bear, hare, as well as woodpecker, turtle dove, cuckoo, partridge, thrush, golden eagle, barn owl.
