SERBIA
Belgrade, the capital city of Serbia, is a vibrant and captivating destination. Situated at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers, Belgrade is a city that effortlessly blends its rich history with a modern cosmopolitan vibe. Visitors are greeted by a skyline dotted with ancient fortresses, grand palaces, and exquisite churches. As you explore the cobbled streets of the city, you'll encounter a lively café culture, charming markets, and a burgeoning arts scene. The city's nightlife is renowned, with an array of bars, clubs, and live music venues that keep the city buzzing until the early hours. Belgrade's unique blend of history, culture, and vibrant energy make it a must-visit destination for any traveler looking for an authentic European experience.
How to Get to Belgrade
Of course you can fly into Belgrade’s airport, but my friend and I were able to buy a bus ticket from Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina directly to Belgrade, Serbia. It was a 12 hour bus ride, so it’s not for the faint of heart, but Flixbus offers great routes and prices!
Where to Stay
One of the most unique things about Belgrade are the pontoon hotels on the River Danube! There are so many floating hotels to choose from, and they all have their own style. Check out Arkabarka for something budget-friendly, or for something a little more upscale but still a great price check out Joy 5 Hotel & Spa!
Where to Eat
Belgrade is a very modern city; my favorite place that I went back to over and over for the healthy yet delicious food was Bloom! Seriously it was the best, and it was such a cute layout!
What to See
Alright, so besides wandering the city for a bit, my friend and I actually did a little bit of a road trip mission to Manastir Manasija, a beautiful monastery south of Belgrade. This was my favorite part of Serbia personally!
