About Bijeljina

Bijeljina is located in the north-eastern part of the Republic of Srpska, in the heart of the Semberija plain.
The town is near the Beograd-Zagreb highway and is near the biggest cities in Serbia – Belgrade and Novi Sad (cca 120-130 km). There are two border crossings in Bijeljina area – Pavlovića Bridge on Drina River and Rača on Sava River.

Archaeological findings show that the Semberija region was inhabited even in the prehistoric era. Bijeljina is recognisable by its big central square, whose beauty is complemented by the green town oasis – the Town Park.
