Belgrade trip planner

The capital and largest city of Serbia, cosmopolitan Belgrade sits on the confluence of the Sava and the Danube rivers. Situated between the country's mountainous central region and the sprawling northern plains, the booming city boasts an unusual blend of old-world sophistication, socialist architecture, and unparalleled nightlife drawing partygoers from distant corners of the world. With a history dating back to the 4th century BCE, when Celtic tribes settled the area, Belgrade saw more than its share of foreign domination. Ruled successively by the Romans, Ottomans, and the Austro-Hungarians, the city finally gained independence in 1878. Today Belgrade embraces its diverse cultural heritage while maintaining a vibrant city center that serves as the country's hub of culture, commerce, and education.
