A visit to Serbia begins with Belgrade. This city is a wonderful combination of a medieval castle, an old town and bold twentieth-century decisions.

Belgrade is full of good restaurants and bars. We really ate our fill here.

Embankment

New modern embankment along the Sava River

A very long and beautiful modern embankment. Here you can walk endlessly and watch the sunsets. If you go south, you will definitely come across an unusually shaped skyscraper and the largest shopping center in Belgrade, Galeria.

Quite a large complex with a green area. The Serbs love sports and managed to fit tennis courts into the fortress. The fortress offers a wonderful view of the confluence of two rivers - the Danube and the Sava.

The size of the temple is impressive, it is very large. Without any problems, you can go inside and admire the luxurious decoration of the cathedral. By the way, the building was designed in the likeness of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, which is now a mosque.

Concrete tower in New Belgrade

A mind-blowing masterpiece of twentieth-century architecture. It's a shame that everything around it is rather abandoned. However, this also gives the building its own mystery. People still live here, and the skyscraper itself is a symbol of New Belgrade.
