The lake behind the dam is popular for fishing and various water sports, such as canoeing and pedal boating.
The area known as Tatul, located approximately 13 km from Bivolyane, features both a pagan shrine and a medieval fort. This location is a notable cultural monument, highlighting ancient religious practices and historical structures.
Emala Baba, an ancient site from the 17th century, is located close to the village. The complex includes a tomb with six graves under a single roof and an eight-sided pattern on the ceiling.
