However, we visited this city and really loved it! Let me share my favorite spots with you. Kalemegdan Fortress, built in BC, is one of the nicest places to visit in Belgrade. The fortress is located in a strategic position at the confluence of the Savva and the Danube rivers.
The Kalemegdan Fortress consists of several areas where you can explore remnants of different historical periods and people who controlled the area: Romans, Turks, Austro-Hungarians, and, of course, Serbs. For instance, there are underground tunnels dug by Romans, different weapons and war machines that belong to the Military Museum exposition, and the observational desk. Famous Pobednik, or the Victor monument, rises above the city from the Kalemegdan Fortress.
And the views from the observational desk below the monument is fantastic. Zemun used to be a separate town until it became a part of Belgrade in This area was first mentioned in the 12th centiry in the Byzatine documents, and the ruins of the walls date back to the th centuries.
You can spot Danube river, Pupin bridge and St Dimitri church from here as well as the beautiful red tiled roofs. Other landmarks located on the square are the National Museum and National Theatre, and we also witnessed a small demonstration there. Another famous Belgrade landmark not far from Republic Square is the Skadarlija neighborhood.
The Nikola Tesla Museum is dedicated to probably the most famous Serbian person in the world. However, we found it impossible to enter it. We came there at 6. Tito constructed it as a greenhouse near his Residence and asked to be buried there.
