Црква „Рождество на Пресвета Богородица“

Карневал Ратевски бамбурци
The Ratevski Bamburci Carnival is a traditional winter carnival event consisting of pagan rituals aiming for a happier and more prosperous new year. It is organized in the village of Ratevo near Berovo. Unlike most winter carnivals held on January 13 and 14 (New Year's Eve according to the Julian calendar), the Ratevo Carnival is held on January 20, on the feast of St. John the Baptist. Groups of men are masked in animal skins and using bells and other props perform ritual dances to scare away evil spirits. In the past few years, modern masks have also been incorporated, and carnival groups from neighboring countries have been invited to take part in the festivities.

Беровско Езеро
This artificial lake lies 7 km (4.2 mi) from the Bulgarian border. It is surrounded by protected deciduous forests. The lake is used for recreational activities such as swimming, fishing, and sailing. Due to its high elevation, the waters remain quite cold year-round.
Црква „Вознесение Христово“
This church, built in the 1840s, suffered a fire in 2014 that resulted in the destruction of the entire interior. It has since been restored. The church also has a belfry.
