Tourist attractions
At the heart of the city is Belgrade Fortress, a magnificent fortification that is now Belgrade’s central park. Access the park from the end of Knez Mihailova street, and take a walk along the battlements for some beautiful views, especially during sunset. Within the Fortress you’ll find cafés, museums and even an observatory.
The central Republic Square is a huge, cobbled open space that also houses the National Museum, the city’s main theatre and the most popular shopping street, Knez Mihailova.
Belgrade is full of royal palaces, and you can choose from the Old Royal Palace at Nikola Pasic Square, the White Palace or the New Palace, which is located conveniently next to the Old Palace. And well worth a visit is the Nikola Tesla museum, which charts the extraordinary life of Belgrade’s most famous son and one of the most brilliant scientific minds of his generation.
