A writer's view of Beograd....

This page is constantly undergoing updates. Currently, I'm organizing all my must see tips as a walking tour of Belgrade, so I advise you to view them in Author's Order. Check back often! :)

"The sky above Belgrade is wide and high, unstable but always beautiful; even during winter serenities with their icy splendour; even during summer storms when the whole of it turns into a single gloomy cloud which, driven by the mad wind, carries the rain mixed with the dust of panonian plain; even in spring when it seems that it also blooms, along with the ground; even in autumn when it grows heavy with the autumn stars in swarms. Always beautiful and rich, as a compensation to this strange town for everything that isn't there, and a consolation because of everything that shouldn't be there"

-Ivo Andric, Nobel Prize Laureate

~QUICK INTRO~

The land at the junction of the Sava and the Danube has been inhabitated for 7000 years. The land was built into a city. A city that has held many names over the years such as Singidunum and now it is called Beograd <White City>. It was laid in ruins some sixty times, but it always rose back to its original glory. This city with a turbulent history is a vibrant party town that has charmed many visitors over time. I hope this page will allow you to see some of the things Belgrade has to offer. Happy travels!

Pros and Cons

Pros:Belgrade is a city that never sleeps, you will find people walking about even at 3am on a weekday.
Cons:It is becoming more expensive to visit.
In a nutshell:A city that has been fought over for many centuries has gotta be worth seeing!

Hi Biljana. Your page on Belgrade is awesome. Travelled to Belgrade earlier this year and fell in love with the city. Great stuff.

Hi Biljana. You have a fantastic page on Belgrade, and I really enjoyed reading all of your tips... orange stars well deserved! Is there no animal rescue organisation for those poor dogs? :-( Greetings from Dubai / Jess
