Belgrade, Serbia

About Belgrade Fortress (Kalemegdan)

The great fortress at the confluence of the Sava and Danube — 2,000 years of continuous fortification on a bluff above two rivers, with Roman ruins, Byzantine towers, Ottoman walls, and WWI memorials. The park around it is Belgrade's most popular public space; the sunset over the rivers from the fortress walls is extraordinary.

More Culture in Belgrade

🏛️

Skadarlija Bohemian Quarter

Belgrade's Montmartre — a cobblestoned lane of 19th-century kafanas (Serbian taverns) where brass bands play, rakija flows, and the Serbian tradition of extended convivial dining reaches its apogee. The kafanas here (Tri šešira, Dva jelena) have operated continuously since the 1830s; the atmosphere is timeless.

🏛️

Savamala Arts District

Belgrade's most creative quarter — a riverside warehouse district under the old Branko's Bridge that has become the epicenter of the city's art, music, and nightlife scene. Mikser festival, Pop Up Belgrade, and dozens of galleries and clubs occupy the 19th-century customs warehouses. The most interesting two blocks in Serbia.
