Belgrade

Belgrade is fast building a reputation as a capital city that really knows how to enjoy itself, with excellent museums and galleries, a vast selection of restaurants and cafés, and probably the best nightlife in southeast Europe.

Belgrade is also a sociable, safe city where young and old mix freely together, with everyone taking their place in the ritual evening promenade, strolling, chatting with perhaps stopping for a coffee or a beer or two. There's a real buzz to the place and an undeniable vibrancy in the city streets whatever the time of day or night.

Modern-day Serbia has worked hard to put the legacy of the bad old days of Slobodan Milosevic firmly behind it and today, most visitors to Belgrade speak warmly of the friendliness and generosity of its citizens, who are eager to see their city portrayed in a positive light.
