About
Die Hauptstadt und größte Stadt Serbiens, bekannt für ihr lebendiges Nachtleben, die historische Festung Kalemegdan und den Zusammenfluss der Flüsse Sava und Donau.
Belgrade is the capital and largest city of Serbia, set in the southeast of Europe. It is a city that rewards both a slow walk and a late evening out, and most visitors find that the two sit comfortably side by side.
What the city offers
- Kalemegdan Fortress, a historic fortification that stands above the place where the Sava and Danube rivers meet. It is a natural first stop for anyone wanting to understand the city's position and long past.
- The rivers, whose confluence gives Belgrade much of its character. Walks along the water are a pleasant way to see how the city meets its surroundings.
- Nightlife, which is one of the city's best-known features. Bars, cafés and clubs keep many areas busy into the small hours.
Planning a visit
Belgrade works well as a stay of a few days. Kalemegdan and the riverside can be covered on foot, and the evenings give a lively contrast to the historic sites of the daytime. Because the city is known for its nightlife, visitors who prefer quiet may want to choose accommodation with that in mind.
The city is also known by its Serbian name, Beograd, and in Cyrillic as Београд, which you may see on signs and maps during your trip.
