Saint Petka's Chapel

The church is located in the Upper Town of Belgrade

Fortress, very close to the Rose Church. It was built on top
of a spring that is believed to be miraculous, on the site of
an old chapel built after 1867. The current chapel was built
in 1937 to the design of architect Momir Korunovi.
It was completed on St Petkas Day (also known as
Paraskeva) and the spring waters are believed to be
beneficial to women. Its interior walls and arches are
covered with mosaics, created between 1980 and 1983 by
artist uro Radulovi.
When the foundations were being dug, numerous bones
were found belonging to Serbian soldiers who had
perished in the defence of Belgrade 1914-1915, which
were transferred to a specially-built ossuary in the walls
beneath Jakis Tower.

The Belgrade Fortress (Kalemegdan Fortress)

Belgrade Fortress consists of the old citadel (Upper and
Lower Town) and Kalemegdan Park (Large and Little
Kalemegdan) on the confluence of the River Sava and
Danube, in an urban area of modern Belgrade, the capital
of Serbia. It is located in Belgrade's municipality of Stari
Grad. Belgrade Fortress was declared a Monument of
Culture of Exceptional Importance in 1979, and is
protected by the Republic of Serbia.
Belgrade Fortress is the core and the oldest section of the
urban area of Belgrade. For centuries the city population
was concentrated only within the walls of the fortress, and
thus the history of the fortress, until most recent times,
equals the history of Belgrade itself (see: Timeline of
Belgrade history).
The first mention of the city is when it was founded in the 3rd century BC as "Singidunum" by the Celtic tribe of
Scordisci, who had defeated Thracian and Dacian tribes that previously lived in and around the fort. The city-fortress
was later conquered by the Romans, was known as Singidunum and became a part of "the military frontier", where the
Roman Empire bordered "barbarian Central Europe".
Singidunum was defended by the Roman legion IV Flaviae, which built a fortified camp on a hill at the confluence of the
Danube and the Sava rivers. In the period between AD 378 and 441 the Roman camp was repeatedly destroyed in the
invasions by the Goths and the Huns. Legend says that Attila's grave lies at the confluence of the Sava and the Danube
(under the fortress). In 476 Belgrade again became the borderline between the empires: the Western Roman Empire
and Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine Empire), and the Slav-Avar State in the north.
The Byzantine Emperor Justinian I rebuilt the fortress around 535. In the following centuries the fortress suffered
continuous destruction under the Avar sieges. The Slavs (Serbs) and Avars had their "state union" north of Belgrade
with the Serbs and other Slavic tribes finally settling in the Belgrade area as well as the regions west and south of
Belgrade in the beginning of the 7th century. The name Belgrade (or Beograd in Serbian), which, not just in Serbian but
in most Slavic languages, means a "white town" or a "white fortress", was first mentioned in AD 878 by Bulgarians. The
fortress kept changing its masters: Bulgaria during three centuries, and then the Byzantines and then again Bulgarians.
The fortress remained a Byzantine stronghold until the 12th century when it fell in the hands of the newly emerging
Serbian state. It became a border city of the Serbian Kingdom, later Empire with Hungary. The Hungarian king Bla I
gave the fortress to Serbia in the 11th century as a wedding gift (his son married the Serbian princess Jelena), but it
remained effectively part of Hungary, except for the period 12821319. After the Serbian state collapsed after the Battle
of Kosovo in 1404, Belgrade was chosen as the capital of the principality of Despot Stefan Lazarevi. Major work was
done to the ramparts which were encircling a big thriving town. The lower town at the banks of the Danube was the
main urban center with a new build Orthodox cathedral. The upper town with its castle was defending the city from
inland. Belgrade remained in Serbian hands for almost a century. After the Despot's death in 1427 it had to be returned
to Hungary. An attempt by Sultan Mehmed II to conquer the fortress was prevented by Janos Hunyadi in 1456 (Siege of
Belgrade), saving Hungary from Ottoman dominion for 70 years.
In 1521, 132 years after the Battle of Kosovo, the fortress, like most parts of the Serbian state, was conquered by the
Turks and remained (with short periods of the Austrian and Serbian occupation), under the rule of the Ottoman Empire
until the year 1867, when the Turks withdrew from Belgrade and Serbia. During the short period of Austrian rule (1718
1738), the fortress was largely rebuilt and modernized. It witnessed the Great Serbian Migration in the 17th century and
two Serbian Uprisings in the 19th century, during the Turkish Period. The fortress suffered further damage during the
First and the Second World Wars. After almost two millennia of continuous sieges, battles and conquests, the fortress is
today known as the Belgrade Fortress. The present name of Kalemegdan Park derives from two Turkish words, kale
(fortress) and meydan (battlefield) (literally, "battlefield fortress").

Knez Mihailova street

Knez Mihailova Street or Prince Michael Street, properly Kneza Mihaila (Serbian:
( ), Ulica Knez Mihailova, (Ulica
Kneza Mihaila)) is the main pedestrian and shopping zone in Belgrade, and is
protected by law as one of the oldest and most valuable landmarks of the city.
Named after Mihailo Obrenovi III, Prince of Serbia, it features a number of buildings
and mansions built during the late 1870s.
One kilometer long Knez Mihailova Street was in 1979 included on the list of Spatial
Cultural-Historical Units of Great Importance, and as such is protected by the
Republic of Serbia. The street follows the central grid layout of the Roman city of
Singidunum. During Ottoman occupation, there were gardens, drinking-fountains and
mosques along the street. In the middle of the 19th century, the upper part of the
street bordered the garden of Knez Aleksandar Karaorevi.
After the implementation of the 1867 city of Belgrade regulation plan by Emilijan
Josimovi, the street soon gained its current look and architecture.
Houses were built there by the most influential and wealthiest families of the Serbian
society, most of them merchants. In 1870, one year after the assassination of Prince
Mihailo Obrenovi, the city authorities officially named the street - Ulica Kneza
Mihaila (Prince Michael Street).

Church of Saint Sava (Orthodox Cathedral)

The Church of Saint Sava (Serbian:
/Hram svetog Save[a]) is a Serbian Orthodox church
located on the Vraar plateau, Belgrade, Serbia. It is the
largest Orthodox church in the world and ranks amongst
the ten largest church buildings in the world. The church is
dedicated to Saint Sava, the founder of the Serbian
Orthodox Church and an important figure in medieval
Serbia. It is built on the Vraar plateau, on the location
where his remains were burned in 1595 by Ottoman Grand
Vizier Sinan Pasha. From its location, it dominates
Belgrade's cityscape, and is perhaps the most monumental
building in the city. The building of the church structure is
being financed exclusively by donations. The parish home
is nearby, as will be the planned patriarchal building.

Ada Ciganlija
Ada Ciganlija (Serbian Cyrillic: , pronounced
[ada tsianlija]), colloquially shortened to Ada, is a river
island that has artificially been turned into a peninsula,
located in the Sava River's course through central Belgrade,
the capital of Serbia. The name can also refer to the
adjoining artificial Lake Sava and its beach. To take
advantage of its central location, over the past few decades,
it was turned into an immensely popular recreational zone,
most notable for its beaches and sports facilities, which,
during summer seasons, can have over 100,000 visitors
daily and up to 300,000 visitors over the weekend. Due to
this popularity, Ada Ciganlija has been commonly nicknamed
"More Beograda" ("Belgrade's Sea"), which was officially
accepted as an advertising slogan in 2008, stylised as More
BeogrADA.

One of the island's most noted landmarks is the fountain, based on the famous Jet d'Eau (water-jet), situated in Lake
Geneva. The Belgrade one is also 140 metres high and it was installed in 1996. The fountain operates during the day
all year round, except in case there is frost or a particularly strong wind. It also operates in the evening between spring
and autumn and is lit by a set of lights. During the summer months in the later hours, the island stages a special laser
light spectacle for those still present at the beach.
This Island also has an artistic sculpture workshop located at the eastern end in the direction of the city. Ada Ciganlija
also has a children's theatre featuring scheduled performances, as well as a Robinson Crusoe-themed entertainment
feature that stages themed performances.

St. Michael's the Archangel Cathedral

The Cathedral Church of St. Michael the Archangel (Serbian:
. , Saborna Crkva Sv. Arhangela
Mihaila) is a Serb Orthodox Christian church in the centre of Belgrade,
Serbia. It is one of the most important places of worship in the country.

Church of the Holy Mother of God (Crkva Ruzica)

Ruica Church (Serbian: , Little Rose
Church) is a Serbian Orthodox church located in the
Kalemegdan Fortress, in Belgrade, Serbia. A church of the
same name existed on the site in the time of Stefan
Lazarevi. It was demolished in 1521 by the invading
Ottoman Turks. The church was used a gunpowder
magazine in the 18th century, and was converted into a
military church between 1867 and 1869. Heavily damaged
during the First World War, the church was renovated in
1925. The iconostasis was carved by Kosta Todorovi, and
the icons painted by Rafailo Momilovi. The walls were
covered in paintings by Andrej Bicenko, a Russian artist.

Topcider Park
Topider (Serbian Cyrillic: , Serbo-Croatian pronunciation: [t pttideer])
is a forest park and an urban neighborhood of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. It
is divided between in the municipalities of ukarica, Rakovica and Savski
Venac. Being close to downtown, it is one of the major locations for relaxation,
picnics and fresh air for the citizens of Belgrade. A stone church, inn and
military complex were also constructed. Planting of trees also began, mostly
London Plane (Platanus acerifolia), which are today among the oldest ones
in Europe. The biggest and oldest specimen, protected by the state, is 34
meters high and the diameter of the deck is 55 meters, while the shade of its
crown covers an area of 1,400 square meters. Some sources claim it was
planted in 1834 when prince Milo ordered for a seedling to be planted in the
lime kiln in front of the konak. Other, more reliable sources say the tree was
planted in 1868, when 250 seedlings of Platanus were bought in Vienna,
Austro-Hungary, for which a receipt still exist today.[1]
Even older is the almost 180-year-old pear tree, nicknamed kruka topiderka
("pear of Topider") [2] According to popular legend, it was planted by prince
Milo a few years after the konak was finished. He wanted to redeem to his
wife princess Ljubica because of his frequent infidelities and in front of the pear
seedling swore loyalty. It still bears fruits, so attempts are being made to
produce its seedling in the greenhouse. The pear is surrounded by five
pedunculate oak, all of which are over 100 years old.
Topider was the first public park outside the central city area. Today it covers an area (with the Topider and Koutnjak
woods) of 3.46 km. Many other monuments are centered around the konak: the binjekta stone ("hopping stone")
which prince Milo used to jump on a horse, the Museum of the First Serbian Uprising (in the konak itself), three public
drinking fountains with an additional fourth one with lion's heads which was temporarily moved here, but restored in
1976 and returned to its original location in Terazije, and the stone obelisk erected in 1859, one of the first public
monuments in Belgrade. A bronze monument to the Swiss doctor and philanthropist Archibald Reiss (by Marko
Breanin) was erected in 1931.

Gardos - Tower of Sibinjanin Janko

Gardo Tower (Serbian: ) or Millennium Tower, (Serbian:
) and also known as Kula Sibinjanin Janka (English: The Tower of
Janos Hunyadi Serbian: ) is a memorial tower located in
Belgrade, Serbia. It was built and officially opened on August 20, 1896 to celebrate a
thousand years of Hungarian settlement in the Pannonian plain.
As part of Old Town core of Zemun, and also located in the middle of the Zemun
Fortress, tower is protected both as Spatial Cultural-Historical Unit of Great
Importance, and as a Protected Monument of Culture.
It was part of the massive construction effort which included buildings in Budapest as
well as four millennium towers on four directions of the world. Being the southernmost
city in then Hungary within the Austria-Hungary, the tower was built on the ruins of the
medieval fortress on Gardo hill, Taurunum, which barely survived today (only angular
towers and parts of the defending wall). The tower was built as a combination of
various styles, mostly influenced by the Roman elements. Being a natural lookout, it
was used by Zemun's firemen for decades. Today, the tower is better known after the
Janos Hunyadi, who actually died in the old fortress four and a half centuries before the
tower was built.

Skadarlija
Skadarlija (Serbian Cyrillic: ) is a vintage street, an urban
neighborhood and former municipality of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia.
It is located in the Belgrade municipality of Stari Grad (Old town) and
generally considered the main bohemian quarter of Belgrade, similar to
Paris' Montmartre.
Well-known but mostly poor poets and writers became regular visitors of
Skadarlija in the early 20th century, not just from Serbia but from the
wider Yugoslav areas, even before the Yugoslav state was formed as
such in 1918. The most prominent residents and visitors in Skadarlija's
Bohemian history include Silvana Armenuli,[5] ura Jaki, Dobrica
Milutinovi, Tin Ujevi, Gustav Krklec, Stevan Sremac, Antun Gustav
Mato, Zuko Dumhur and Momo Kapor.
The present Skadarlija, a short and curved street, is a remarkable
Belgrade tourist attraction. It includes well-known restaurants, hotels
(e.g. Le Petit Piaf), art galleries, antique and souvenir shops, and the
Sebilj fountain. Groups playing Serbian brass or traditional urban music
and actors dressed in traditional Serb costumes perform down the
street. Unlike other similar and popular places in Belgrade that are
considered posh, Skadarlija is known as a place visited by young
couples and entire families with children. Restaurants offer the typical
national cuisine, most notably the rotilj (grilled meat) with pivo (beer).
Skadarlija's cafs, restaurants, art exhibits and cobblestone promenade
attract up to 20,000 people daily. The street is a car-free zone but it
would be unsuited for traffic anyway because it is too narrow and with
bumpy cobblestones.

Zemunski kej
Zemunski Kej (Serbian Cyrillic: ) is an urban
neighborhood of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. It is located in
Belgrade's municipality of Zemun. For the most part, the
promenade is parallel to the street opened for traffic. Near the
beginning of the promenade is a one of major roundabouts in
Zemun, with terminal bus stops for many public transportation
bus lines (82, 85, 610, 611, 705). The promenade continues
around Ue and makes one continuous pedestrian path next to
the neighborhoods of Staro Sajmite and Savski Nasip,
alongside the left bank of the Sava. The high embankment with
the promenade was built in 1967 so the Danube rarely flooded
the quay (most notably in 1981).

In September 2007 reconstruction of quay began including further elevation of the embankment, widening of the
pedestrian path and construction another one on separate level, completion of the cycling path, etc. Works are
expected to be finished in 2008.
Zemunski Kej is the main Zemun's landing area for numerous boats. Also, as the bank (and thus the quay too) follows
the line of the nearby Great War Island, it is the beginning point of the pontoon bridge which seasonally connects the
island with the mainland.

Avala Tower
The Avala Tower (Serbian: / Avalski toranj) is a 204.5 m (671 ft) tall
telecommunication tower located on Avala mountain in the periphery of Belgrade. It

in the latter half of the 19th century. It is located on
Republic Square, in Belgrade, Serbia.
The National Theatre was declared a Monument of Culture

Republic of Serbia.
In 1868, the Serbian National Theatre from Novi Sad (then
the capital of Serbian culture in Austria-Hungary)
performed in Belgrade (then the capital of the Principality
of Serbia). Prince Michael, impressed by the performances
he experienced, invited Jovan orevi (the founder of the
Novi Sad Serbian National Theatre) to found a similar
institution in Serbia. Having accepted, Jovan orevi
came to Belgrade with half of his company of actors and
founded the National Theatre in Belgrade, seven years
after having founded the Novi Sad theatre.

Residence of Princess Ljubica (Konak Kneginje Ljubice)

Princess Ljubica's Residence (Serbian: ) in
Belgrade was built between 1829 and 1831 by Hadi-Nikola ivkovi, a
pioneer of contemporary Serbian architecture. The residence was built
on order by prince Milo Obrenovi for his wife Ljubica and their
children, the future rulers Milan and Mihailo. They began living in the
residence in 1831, living there for the following ten years. It is
preserved as the most representative city house from the first half of
19th century. Architecturally, it contains Ottoman attributes (the socalled Serbian-Balkan style) but with elements of classicism which
anticipate future Western influences on architecture in Belgrade.
Following the ascension of Alexander Karaorevi, Prince of Serbia,
the building changed its purpose many times: it once housed the
Belgrade Higher School, appellate court (Court of Cassation), a
museum of art, a church museum, home for the elderly, and the
Department for the Protection of the Monuments of Culture of Serbia.
Nowadays, it is a part of the Museum of Belgrade and is used as an exhibition space. Permanent exhibit includes
original furniture made in Ottoman Balkan style and many other styles of that time (Classicism, Biedermeier and Neobaroque). Princess Ljubica's Residence was declared Monument of Culture of Exceptional Importance in 1979, and it is
protected by Republic of Serbia.

Mountain Avala
Avala (Serbian Cyrillic: , pronounced [ve ala]) is a
mountain in Serbia, overlooking Belgrade. It is situated in
the south-eastern corner of the city and provides a great
panoramic view of Belgrade, Vojvodina and umadija, as
the surrounding area on all sides is mostly lowlands. It
stands at 511 metres (1,677 ft) above sea level, which
means that it enters the mountain category just by 11
meters.
In the Middle Ages, the town of rnov or "Avalski Grad"
(Avala town) was located on top of Avala. In 1442. it was
conquered by the Ottoman Empire, which built a new town
in rnov's place as a counter-fortress to the Belgrade city
fort, and renamed it "havale", which originally comes from
Arabic and means "obstacle" or "shelter".
The mountain has been protected since 1859 [2] as a "monument of nature", or, by the modern standards, "sight of the
exquisite values". That year, Prince Milo Obrenovi of Serbia issued an order for the Avala to get fenced and protected
that way. Remains of the medieval rnov were removed in 1934 to make way for the Monument to the Unknown Hero.
In the period of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, the mountain was declared a national park, in 1936. In 1946, by the ukaz of
the Presidium of the National Assembly of Serbia, Avala was reduced to the status of the "public property of general
benefit" and placed under direct management of the Government of Serbia. In 1965, a 202 m high Avala TV Tower was
constructed, one of the tallest structures in the Balkans, by the architects Ugljea Bogunovi, Slobodan Janji and M.
Krsti. It had a restaurant-look out on 120 meters. The tower was destroyed during the NATO bombing of Serbia in
1999. Its total reconstruction began in 2006 and was officially opened at a ceremony on 21 April 2010. The new tower is
almost the exact replica of the destroyed one, including the unique three-feet base. Belgrade's General Urbanistic Plan
(GUP) for the 2001-2021 period defines the mountain as a sports and recreation area.

The White Palace (Beli dvor)

The White Palace (Serbian: / Beli dvor) is a former royal
residence of the Karaorevi dynasty. The palace is located in the Royal
Compound, in the Dedinje neighborhood of Belgrade.
The White Palace located in the same complex as the Royal Palace, the
official residence of the Karaorevi royal family. The palace was
designed by architect Aleksandar orevi, in a neo-Palladian manner
inspired by the 18th century English houses such as Ditchley Park. Its
interior was decorated with English Georgian and 19th century Russian
antiques by the French design firm Jansen, which later decorated the
White House during the administration of John F. Kennedy.
The palace was commissioned and built with the personal funds of King
Alexander I for his three sons. Alexander was assassinated during a state
visit to Marseille, France, the same year construction on the palace
began. Supervision of construction was overtaken by the Prince Regent
Paul until its completion in 1937.
Queen Maria and her three sons, including the 11-year-old King Peter II, continued to reside in the Royal Palace during
this time. Prince Paul was the only member of the royal family to reside in the palace before the outbreak of the Second
World War and invasion of Yugoslavia."
Following the end of the war, the new communist government seized the assets and property of the royal family. Beli
dvor was periodically used by presidents Josip Broz Tito and later by Slobodan Miloevi for official state functions and
foreign visits. Miloevi received U.S. envoy Richard Holbrook at the palace before the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia
began; Miloevi later officially resigned his presidency in front of the palace fireplace.

Terazije Fountain
Terazije (Serbian Cyrillic: , literally Scales, more commonly known
as "water balances" or "su terazisi" in Turkish) is the central square of the
capital of Serbia. It is located in the Belgrade municipality of Stari Grad. The
meaning of Turkish word "su terazisi" needs to be explained fully because the
English term "scales" does not seem to be adequate. Terazije is probably
more related to the word "reservoir" connected to the ancient Roman
aquaduct which existed before the Ottoman times. Perhaps terazije is
connected to a water distribution mechanism which existed here which lifted
and distributed water further into the city. There is an underground natural
and/or man made underground river in this area. "Water Balances" known as
"su terazisi", were tower-like structures maintaining water pressure when
conveying water to neighbourhoods at a high-level. Varying from 3 to 10 m in
height, they had a cistern at the summit from which the water flowed into
distribution pipes.

Sava Center
Sava Centar (Serbian Cyrillic: ) is an international congress,
cultural and business centre of various multi-functional activities located in
New Belgrade, Serbia. It is the largest audience hall in the country and entire
former Yugoslavia and one of the biggest in Europe. It has been host to
numerous large scale events and performances.

Nebojsa Tower
Nebojsa Tower was used as Turkish prison. It was Donjon
at the time of Serbian kings. Famous Greek revolutionary
and poet Rigas Feraios was killed here by Turks. Tower is
build as a water tower.
It was set in waterline of Danube (in time of its construction
river has some different course). It was connected via
huge chain with U shaped tower (that only remains left)
and thus closed little "hidden" port.
Tower itself changed its image very much from original last floor is changed, tower lost crenelation and
machiculations (terraces with holes in floor for defending
purpose) and new tower get new openings in each floor for
artillery use.

Royal Palace of the Obrenovic Dynasty of Serbia

Stari Dvor (Serbian Cyrillic: ) meaning Old Palace, was the

royal residence of the Obrenovi dynasty. Today it houses the City
Assembly of Belgrade. The palace is located on the corner of Kralja
Milana and Dragoslava Jovanovia streets in Belgrade, Serbia.
The palace was built between 1882 and 1884, according to the design
of Aleksandar Bugarski, in the style of academism of the 19th century,
with intention to surpass all existing residences of the Serbian rulers.
English author Herbert Vivien, who visited the palace by the end of the
19th century, described in detail its interior: "At the left side, there is a
fine ball room, with walls of lemon-yellow colour, with huge white
lusters of Venetian glass, glistening nicely during the state festivities, lit
by electric light. After passing the large reception hall, you enter the
banquet hall. Everything is glistening in that hall: starting from the floor
up to the carved mahogany table. Some sixty guests may be seated
around that table. Leather-upholstered chairs are of the colour of
autumn leaves. What is most impressive, is the good taste
characterizing all objects, both those for use and the adornments. The
admiration is even more caused by the beautiful carved ceilings,
inherited from the Turkish era and fashion."

Bajrakli Mosque
The Bajrakli Mosque (Serbian: / Bajrakli damija; named in Turkish as
Bayrakl, bayrak is Turkish for "flag" and Bayrakl means "with flag") is a mosque in
Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. It is located in Gospodar Jevremova Street in the
neighbourhood of Dorol. It was built around 1575, and is the only mosque in the city out
of the 273 that had existed during the time of the Ottoman Empire's rule of Serbia.
During the occupation of Serbia by the Austrians (between 1717 and 1739), it was
converted into a Roman Catholic church; but after the Ottomans retook Belgrade, it was
returned to its original function.
It was damaged after being set on fire on 18 March 2004, during that year's unrest in
Kosovo, in violent protest to the burning of Serbian churches in Kosovo, but it was later
repaired.

Pobednik
The Pobednik (Lit: The Victor) is a monument located in
the Belgrade Fortress in Belgrade, built to commemorate
Serbia's victory over Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian
Empire during the Balkan Wars and the First World War.
Built in 1928 and standing at 14 meters high, it is one of
the most famous works of Ivan Metrovi. It is also one of
the most visited tourist attractions in Belgrade and the
city's most recognizable landmark.
In 1912, Metrovi was commissioned to designed a grand
commemorative fountain on Terazije square. The center
basin of the fountain was to include a five-stepped column
where the Pobednik statue was to stand on. The project
was interrupted following the outbreak of the Second
Balkan War and the First World War. The original plans
were eventually scrapped and the statue was placed atop
a marble column and unveiled in 1928, atop the Belgrade
Fortress during the 10th anniversary of the breakthrough at
the Thessaloniki Front.

The statue, holds a falcon, on watch for the new threats on the horizon, in the left hand, and a sword of war, ready to
counter these threats in the right. It's looking forward across the confluence of the Sava and the Danube, and over the
vast Pannonian plain, towards the very distant Fruka Gora mountain, towards the (at the time), Austro-Hungarian
empire, it is probably the most powerful, most popular visual symbol of Belgrade.
