Things To Do
The Belgrade Fortress
The Fortress was built in stages, during the lengthy period between the 1st and 18th century, from a Roman castrum, through a Byzantine castle and the remains of the medieval capital of the Serb Despotate, all the way to an Austrian-Ottoman artillery fortification. The complex consists of the fortress itself, divided into the Upper Town (Despot’s Gate, Sahat kula - Clock Tower, Roman Well, Statue of the Victor), Lower Town (Nebojša Tower, Amam – Turkish bath, Gate of Charles VI) and the Kalemegdan Park, home to busts of important persons from Serbian history, science and culture. The Belgrade Fortress offers an exciting view of the confluence of Sava and Danube, of New Belgrade and Zemun. The Kalemegdan Park contains the “Cvijeta Zuzorić” Pavilion, the Grand Stairway, the zoo, children’s park and a number of monuments and sculptures, several sports courts, a museum, a café and a restaurant.

Little Bay also stands out by its dedication to classical music, opera and jazz, live music formats and cross-over, and therefore is a unique venue in Belgrade, harvesting young talents and promoting them while serving an amazing food.
Skadarlija
There is a saying that if you haven’t visited Skadarlija you haven’t truly experienced Belgrade. Skadarlija is a vintage street in the capital of Serbia. It is located in the Belgrade municipality of Stari Grad (Old town) and generally considered the main bohemian quarter of Belgrade, similar to Paris' Montmartre. It is located in the heart of Belgrade, the old, romantic and bohemian, known in history and legend, and it lives more than a century in many songs, interesting stories and anecdotes as well as in many literary and journalistic writings. This magical part of Belgrade, beloved corner of poetry and romantic history, famous for its wooden cobbles, gas lanterns among the trees in bloom, the famous houses and taverns, where famous writers, journalists, actors, directors, musicians, singers, painters and other merry-makers spent many pleasant evenings. Our personal recommendation would be to go and visit restaurants such as Tri Sesira, Zlatan Bokal, or Dva Jelena.
Hram Svetog Save (The Church of Saint Sava)
It is located at Vracar plateau (municipality of Belgrade), and it is considered as one of the biggest Orthodox churches in the world. It is dedicated to Saint Sava, first Serbian saint. Known as The Enlightener, was a Serbian prince and Orthodox monk, the first Archbishop of the autocephalous Serbian Church, the founder of Serbian law, and a diplomat. He did’t wanted to be a ruler, he left Serbia to become a monk, with the name Sava (Sabbas). At Athos, he established the monastery of Hilandar, which became one of the most important cultural and religious centers of the Serbian people. The Church of Saint Sava in Belgrade is dedicated to him, built where the Ottomans burnt his remains in 1594 during an uprising in which the Serbs used icons of Sava as their war flags. He is widely considered as one of the most important figures of Serbian history. Saint Sava is canonized and venerated by the Serbian Orthodox Church, as its founder, on January 27.
