Niš
,→East towards Sofia (Bulgaria) {{European Route Number|80}}
==== Bus ====
To get there, take a city '''bus number 4''' from the city center. Ticket costs 60 dinars or 0.5 euros and the ride will take around 15-20 minutes. Follow GPS on your phone and when the bus crosses intersection of "Knjazevacka Knjaževačka street" and "Matejevacki Matejevački put", get off the bus. Keep walking in the same direction for 1.5 km. If you feel like not walking so much, you can try to hitchhike after you cross intersection of "Matejevacki Matejevački put" and "Somborska street" (when 6 lanes boulevard becomes 2 lane street). Most of the cars go to the villages and some to the highway (same direction). You may get lucky and save your legs of 1 km walking. If not, just keep walking to the toll gate. Make sure with the driver that he goes to the direction of Bulgaria or Pirot at least. Car should go over the bridge to join the highway. Don't make a mistake and take a road to the right side before crossing the overpass. You will get lost in the highway intersections and it will be difficult to come back.
You can also take '''bus number 5''' from the city center. Same price for the bus ticket, but it could be slightly faster ride because the route is shorter. Get off at the last stop at "Somborska street". From the last stop walk 2 km to the hitchhiking spot explained above. Note this: "Somborska street" has changed name in January 2020, but on Google maps it's still the old name. If the new name ever gets updated on Google maps, don't get confused if you don't find "Somborska street" but instead you find "Bulevar svetog Pantelejmona".
