The summers are hot and the winters are snowy so you can spend your holidays here during any season of the year. There are public town swimming pools that are open during the warmer seasons. The tradition of hospitality goes back more than a century. There used to be a society that dealt with the beautification of the town. In time Tourist Board was developed and it took over all the functions and more. Some of the festivities are the carnival, flower expo, folklore festival, wind instruments festival, Summer Music Festival, old-timer car expo, fish stew festival “fisijada”, mushroom exhibition and motorcycle festival at “Strmec”.
