Old Town: Stari Grad
Anyone who has seen Paris, London and Co. before and is looking for an extraordinary city destination has come to the right place in Belgrade. The Serbian capital is not yet overcrowded and above all not overly expensive.
From romantic streets to modern shopping streets and a promenade along the river, visitors will find everything a traveler could desire. The city has an exciting and diverse history, which is also reflected in the buildings and churches. The highlight is the old town of Stari Grad, where you can wander around, sit in cafes and go to museums (the National Museum is worth a visit).
In addition to beautiful 19th-century villas, the Serbian National Theater with ballets and operas is located here. Definitely attend a performance – you can understand ballet even if you don’t speak the language!
Kalemegdan Park and Castle
The place where the castle walls once passed, is now the most important park of the city: Kalemegdan. The park is so large that, alongside museums and restaurants, the Belgrade Zoo is located here – ideal if you need a break from sightseeing. Or you sit down and play a round with many chess players. By the way, playing chess is a popular pastime, often practiced in public places.
Fly: From the high walls of the Belgrade Fortress, there is a wonderful view of the confluence of the Danube and Sava rivers. Perfect for memorable selfies.
Water sports in Ada Lake
With its location on two rivers, water plays an important role in Belgrade. The riverside has beaches for a wide variety of water sports – so if you come in the summer, you should definitely bring your swimsuit with you. Another green resting place southwest of the city center: the man-made Ada Lake (Ada Ciganlija). The lake, which has approximately six kilometers of sandy beach, offers opportunities for swimming, water skiing and water skiing. For this reason, Ada Lake is a popular place for excursions, especially for families and children. The bus ride from the city center takes about 15 minutes.
World famous nightlife: Splavs
Belgrade’s nightlife is known worldwide for its diversity and wild parties. If you want to get to know one of the famous clubs in the evening, go to Splavs. These are boat house clubs on the river in the harbor. This is where an international community of electronic music and party culture enthusiasts meet. By the way, the Serbian term splav comes from small houseboats where you can spend time on the river with your family and friends.
Fly: The Floating River Clubs are also worth seeing during the day. For example, cooling off with a cocktail by the water in the breeze on a hot summer afternoon.
Skadarlija street
The area around Skadarlija Street is famous for its vibe, many street cafes and vintage shops. Its inhabitants paid special attention to the preservation of the traditional architecture and atmosphere of historic Belgrade. With ornate murals, colorful flower pots and quirky cafes, the street is a feast for the eyes and a perfect Instagram spot. This place is especially beautiful at sunset, when the street musicians are playing and the candles on the table are lit.
Fly: Those interested in traditional specialties can try the Serbian plum brandy Slivovitz. This makes the evening particularly enjoyable.
Church of St. Sava
Beautiful St. The Sava Church is the largest orthodox church in the Balkans and the second largest in Europe. With its white façade and domed roofs, the church is already worth seeing from the outside. However, its founder, St. The interior with murals of Sava is also beautiful. Its construction took 85 years and the 70-meter-high golden works of art fascinated those who see it at first glance.
Fly: Worth a food stop on the way back from church to town. Serbian pancakes resemble pancakes and are served with Nutella and other delicacies.
a visit to Tito
There may be different opinions as to whether Josip Broz Tito (1892–1980) was a good statesman or a dictatorial statesman. However, the head of state of the former Yugoslavia, who was in power from 1945 to 1980, still plays an important role in the commemorative culture of the former multi-ethnic state. Visiting his mausoleum in the Dedinje district is a must – history here, especially the Cold War history, is embodied.
