Belgrade aka: Beograd

great night life! :)

I lived here for 2 years :D And I`m going to Belgrade on next Monday, horray! What can I say, I love it ;)

During the civil war I flew via Belgarde airport to Sarajevo -> Tuzla. During this time ex Yugoslavia had a ban on flying.
So after getting off the UN chartered aircraft, I stepped out n a airport draped in silenece.
And when I say silence, I mean s i l e n c e !

It was like something from a X-files movie!

The only sound heard was the chitterchatter from birds flying overhead.

Scary!

Belgrade (Beograd) is the capital of Serbia, having about 1,6 million inhabitants. It is located in the south-east of Europe, in the Balkan Peninsula, at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers. It is one of the oldest cities in Europe and since ancient times it has been an important traffic focal point, an intersection of the roads of Eastern and Western Europe.

Belgrade is the capital of Serbian culture, education, science and economy. As a result of its tumultuous history, a lot nations have been living in Belgrade for centuries, and Serbs of Orthodox christian religion are the majority of population (90%). The official language is Serbian, while foreigners are recommended to use English in communication.

all my dad’s family is from belgrade and most part of them are still there. I’ve never been there but i will love to! I’ve already seen a lot of pictures of all the ex-yugoslavia but i still wonder how is the city like…and someday, in a not so distant future, i’ll go there and travel the hole country!

i just stopped at the central railwaystation on a interrail-trip. i had ten minutes to get something to drink and to experience belgrade. enough time for a coke but not to visit a city. anyway
they changed the waggons and i nearly lost my travel-partner. that was scarry. because i had my passport in her lugguage. in the end everything was fine and we left for a another 10hours by train to ljubljana (slowenia).

..what can i say..home sweet home:))

I live here…..it’s great… Beautifull girls, nice clubs, nightlife very good. An EXIT festival will be in Novi Sad, you probably heard about it, an music fest…all kind of music… So come and enjoy ‘)

The city is an urbanistic chaos and locals are usualy short tempered when it comes to driving.

Whatever you want to do, it’s here in Belgrade!
Lovely parks for long walks, lots of historical monuments and museums to see, interesting pieces of architecture, fantastic restaurants with all types of cousines, hundreds of pubs and clubs for a great and wild nightlife; and most of all – warm hearted people who are always happy to help you.
