Top 5 Belgrade attractions and landmarks

Honestly, it was difficult to single out the top 5 attractions and landmarks in Belgrade, but we did our best to try and show you at least a glimpse of the experience, so continue reading.

Knez Mihailova

Almost 800 m long pedestrian street, paved with stores, bars, restaurants, and shops makes it a perfect shopping experience. Here you can find everything you need and, for the best experience, we recommend visiting around the winter holidays, as the Christmas decorations are truly captivating.

Kalemegdan fortress

Walking through Knez Mihailova will take you straight to the Kalemegdan fortress, one of the most important representatives of Belgradeโ€™s cultural heritage. The fortress is packed with museums and all year round concerts and different manifestations are held here.

Skadarlija

Cramped with restaurants that serve local food and delicious wine, this is a place to be if you are a fellow food lover. Not only that your belly will be fed, but your ears as well, as this is the place where only live Serbian music is played.

Gardos

On the other side of the river, at the top of the hill on the Danube shore, stands a Gardos tower. When climbed to the top, you can get a whole different view of the city. So pack your backs and go straight to Zemun.

Temple of Saint Sava

Being one of the largest Orthodox temples in Europe, the temple of Saint Sava is built on the ground believed to be the site where Saint Savaโ€™s remains were burned. This is the largest temple in the Balkans, and the golden interior is truly captivating.
