The entrance to the village off the Struga-Debar highway is marked by a gate on which "ВЕВЧАНИ" is written. The flag of the Vevčani Republic stands on the gate, with Macedonian flags standing on poles surrounding it. A large church dedicated to Saint George, built in 2013, sits near the gate.

Куќа на Плушковци
Built in the 18th and 19th centuries, this home was built of stone and features a prominent chardak (open hall connecting the home on the upper floor). The original owner, Angel Pluškov, was a carpenter and woodworker and thus the house contained unique wooden furniture.
Куќа на Ќитановци
Built in 1906, this house is the youngest among the group and in perhaps in the best condition today. It was built by a wealthy family that owned a restaurant on the Black Sea. The home is three stories tall and features a large bay window on the top floor. The facade features some decorative brickwork.

Куќа на Гоговци
Built in 1887 by a merchant, Kuzman Gogov, who eventually became the mayor of Vevčani from 1928 to 1932.
Црква „Свети Никола“
Vevčani is home to nearly a dozen churches, of which Saint Nicholas is the main one. Construction on the church began in 1834 and was completed in 1862. The icons were done in 1867, while the frescoes were completed in 1879, all the work of notable Mijak artists from the Mavrovo area. The church is relatively imposing when compared to other churches in the country built around this period. This is because its builders defied Ottoman laws when constructing the church by building in on ground level, and not partially underground to reduce its prominence.
Куќа на Поповци
This house was built in the 19th century by Jovan Popovski. It has two floors atop a basement and has a large courtyard.
