Activities in Belgrade
Ready for a sun-soaked day? Head over to Ada Ciganlija, known as the “Belgrade Sea”. This lively man-made peninsula is perfect for swimming, cycling and relaxing by the lake.
If you’re eager to learn more about Serbia’s fascinating history, then the Museum of Yugoslavia is a great place to start. It brings the country’s rich and intricate past vividly to life. Don’t miss the House of Flowers, the peaceful resting place of former leader Josip Broz Tito.
If you’re up for an adventure, consider a trip beyond the city to Eastern Serbia, where you’ll find stunning nature and historical sites. The Manasija Monastery, also known as Resava, is an icon of culture and history dating back to the 15th century. Stop by the Resavska Cave nearby to admire unique rock formations such as stalactites and stalagmites. And make sure to see the Lisine Waterfall nestled within the serene Serbian forests – it’s a hidden gem worth exploring.

Food in Belgrade
Kickstart your mornings like a true local with burek – a flaky pastry stuffed with cheese or meat that’s a great breakfast on the go. For a taste of homemade goodness, try gibanica – this melt-in-your-mouth layered cheese pie will have you coming back for seconds.
Belgrade is bursting with comforting classics to dine on. Cosy up with gulaš – a hearty meat stew that’s as flavourful as it is filling. It’s typically made with vegetables and various spices, and served alongside mashed potatoes.
To truly immerse yourself in the authentic culinary scene, head to Skadarlija, Belgrade’s charming bohemian quarter. Cobblestone streets lined with traditional eateries provide the perfect setting to savour classic dishes. Or, for a more contemporary twist with international flair, dine at one of the restaurants on the Belgrade waterfront.
