Another stop on our Magna via. We started this journey from Siva Brada. Our way led to Zehra. This track offered us many nice places with beautiful views. Flags on the map mean historic destinations.Here, Magna via is a part of so called Gothic way, The touristic route, a circuit with a length of 276km with the possibility of making smaller circuits, is to be found in the regions of Spis and Gemer.

Small chapels are biuld in the same distances as it is in Jerusazem.It was very interesting experience. From Siva Brada we went to Žehra. Žehra was the our last and final place to stop by. We visited a small but very nice church of Holy Spirit. The guide gave us small lecture about history, and symbols of this church. Symbols are painted on the walls inside the church. It was exciting experience to see something like that.
