1. The Belgrade Fortress

Located at the meeting point of the River Sava and Danube, Belgrade Fortress has served as a crucial defender of the region’s primary points of access. Historically, the city of Belgrade rested within the thick walls of the fortress, defending it from countless invasions. Visit Kalemegdan park within the walls to see a number of historical monuments and sculptures.

2. Skadarlija

Sprouting from Republic Square, the historic street winds through Stari Grad, Belgrade’s old town. Originally settled by a community of Gypsies, the neighborhood evolved into permanent establishments, housing artisans from throughout the city. Take a stroll down the cobble-stoned street and absorb the history and culture of this unique town.

3. Petrovaradin Fortress

On the banks of the Danube, Petrovaradin Fortress is a symbol of the ongoing turmoil the area has witnessed throughout the centuries. Laid upon a Roman foundation, this fortification played a pivotal role in thwarting Turkish invasion. The fortress features a network of underground tunnels that span nearly 16 kilometers, a feature that was used to protect citizens and transport goods.

4. Ada Ciganlija

Lying near the mouth of the Sava River, the former island is now a peninsula and can be a highlight to your trip to Belgrade. Covered in thick trees and the occasional meadow, Ada Ciganlija is the perfect place to obtain your nature fix. Lounge on the beaches of the peninsula and enjoy a nice swim or take a boat out on the river.

5. Sirogojno

Stop at the mountain village of Sirogojno located on Mt. Zlatibor to experience traditional Serbian life outside the city. The rustic setting is composed of wood-planked houses and structures, including a dairy, a bakery and an inn. People in this village pride themselves on their local crafts of pottery, knitting and mosaics; take a class on each and create your own unique souvenir.

6. Nis Fortress

On the banks of the Nišava River, in the city Nis, stands the irregularly shaped Nis Fortress. The 18th century fort was built upon a medieval foundation and served as a crucial point for Turkish control of the area. Four large gates give access to critical routes that lead to Istanbul, Belgrade, Vidin and the Nišava River itself.

7. St. Sava Temple

The first Serbian archbishop Saint Sava was born in the 12th century and is given credit for uniting Serbia and other Balkan kingdoms, creating long-standing peace in the region. The gorgeous domed structure was erected in his honor, allowing Sava’s spirit to live on and to spread his important values.

8. Nikola Tesla Museum

Pausing abruptly while walking with a friend through the park, an idea struck Nikola Tesla that would change the world. Tesla’s invention, the alternating current motor and subsequently AC power, revolutionized technology as we know it. Come discover Tesla’s monumental technological achievement and his many other ideas and creations.

Nikola Tesla (Serbian Cyrillic: Никола Тесла; 10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was a Serbian inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, physicist, and futurist best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply system.
Tesla gained experience in telephony and electrical engineering before emigrating to the United States in 1884 to work for Thomas Edison in New York City. He soon struck out on his own with financial backers, setting up laboratories and companies to develop a range of electrical devices. His patented AC induction motor and transformer were licensed by George Westinghouse, who also hired Tesla for a short time as a consultant. His work in the formative years of electric-power development was involved in a corporate alternating current/direct current "War of Currents" as well as various patent battles.

9. Cele Kula

The 19th century Battle of Čegar against the Ottoman Empire saw the death of thousands of soldiers. As a lesson to future Serbian uprisings, Ottoman Sultan Mahmud II built a monument from the skulls of the defeated rebels. This grim structure is a reminder of this land’s turbulent history.

10. Djavolja Varos

Djavolja Varos, or Devil’s Town, is a unique group of 202 rock formations on Radan Mountain, near Kuršumlija. These rock monoliths jut from the earth nearly 15 meters high and can be 6 meters in width. Volcanic activity and a million years of erosion has produced such a bizarre site.
