Stay : Belgrade, a multiple city

Yes, Belgrade is starting to make a beautiful city that never sleeps, or very rarely. The Serbs are people who make life full of life, after the painful episodes of the still relatively fresh Balkan wars in memory, they have since adopted the motto "Carpe Diem".

Clubs and bars flourish in Belgrade, so there are plenty of places to enjoy a drink, dance, listen to music.

Let us also remember that the specialty of Belgrade lies in the Save and the Danube: These are the splavs (boats, floating platforms) that make the Belgradois happy as tourists. Some are closed in winter, but not all, so there is the means of feasting throughout the year. But what would the party be without atmosphere, without music? Gypsy groups, drums and trumpets, it is better whether you like it or you will need to do it quickly because it is almost impossible not to hear them at least once during a belid stay. Music is rhythmic, coaching and widely invited to dance on the tables. Jazz fans will also have the joy of discovering many clubs dedicated to this music with live concerts very often.

The Serbian capital has enough museums (even if some are closed for long renovations), galleries and memorial sites to keep you busy if the weather is bad or if you simply want to know more about Serbian history and culture. Belgrade's history is rich in twists and turns, but it is also full of diverse influences that you will discover as you stroll around. The Turkish heritage is still very visible here and there, starting with the Kalemegdan fortress.

The Yugoslav period, during which Belgrade was the most important city of the Federation, has left some eyewitnesses in its wake, such as Tito's mausoleum, a real tourist attraction. Other cultural aspects of Serbia are also noteworthy, such as the Orthodox monasteries and churches. The only synagogue in Belgrade and the camp in Banjica also reveal the tragic times the capital had to endure.

In a completely different register, Serbian culture also shines today through fashion, theatre, music and cinema. Numerous annual events such as BELEF or the MIKSER festival contribute to its national and international spread.

If you come in summer, enjoy the rivers and banks lined with bicycle paths to discover the city. On the Ada Ciganlija Peninsula, many activities are offered to visitors: Golf, bungee jumping, rollers, water skiing, etc. And, failing having the sea, Belgrade has been able to organize with what it had: the Save and the Danube. Some beaches have been arranged but not in the same spirit as "Paris beach". Here you can really swim, it's not an illusion. Bathing is monitored. The space is expensive in summer, because all the Belgradois are found there. Arrive early!
