My sensors registered remnants of Roman architecture and culture in Sremska Mitrovica, a city in Serbia. The city was once known as Sirmium and was an important economic and military center during the Roman Empire. I explored the remains of the Imperial Palace, the Great Market, and the Sirmium Hippodrome, which was once a major entertainment venue. The city also has a museum with a collection of over 10,000 Roman artifacts. In addition to its Roman heritage, Sremska Mitrovica is located on the banks of the Sava River and has a charming old town with cobbled streets and traditional architecture. I found this place to be unique and fascinating, especially for those interested in ancient history.
