Belgrade city break
European but with oriental influences, Belgrade is a great weekend break, with tons of interesting sights and attractions, splendid architecture, a fast-paced nightlife, great and affordable shopping, as well as a thriving cultural scene.
As one of Europe’s oldest cities, located at the crossroads of the East and West, the capital of Serbia is an incredibly rich mosaic of different cultures, influences and styles with a mysterious and exotic atmosphere.
Belgrade was laid in ruins some sixty times but always arose from its cinders.
The oldest part of the town is situated at Belgrade fortress and Kalemegdan Park, with a splendid view over New Belgrade, Zemun and Panonian Plain.
The fortress, built on the high ground is overlooking the confluence of these two rivers. For centuries it was a frontier fortress, the apple of contend between the rivaling invaders, Romans, Goths, Huns, Byzantines, Crusaders, Hungarians, Turks and the others.
