Titel
Skip Titel unless you have a car and a quiet afternoon for the hill view and a Tisa walk; half a day is enough.
Titel is a small Vojvodina town on the Tisa River, known for its hill and plateau. It sees very few tourists. The main draw is the view from Titel Hill and a stroll along the river. Most travellers pass through on the way to Novi Sad or Bečej.
