Belgrade Fortress, overlooking the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers, is one of Serbia’s most iconic landmarks. With origins dating back to the Roman era, it has witnessed centuries of battles and cultural changes. The fortress offers impressive stone walls, historic gates, and military architecture, along with beautiful walking paths in Kalemegdan Park. Visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the rivers and city skyline, especially at sunset. The site also features small museums, monuments, and outdoor exhibitions, making it both a historical and recreational space. Belgrade Fortress is a must-visit for history lovers and those seeking scenic, peaceful surroundings.
The Belgrade Fortress (Belgrade Fortress) is the core historical landmark of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. It is located in the strategic highland at the intersection of the Sava and Danube rivers, known as the "key of the Balkans". Its history dates back to the early fortifications built by the Celtic in the 3rd century BC, and was later rebuilt and competed for many times by Rome, Byzantine, Ottoman, Austro-Hungarian Empire, and was listed as a special protected cultural relics of Serbian state level in 1979. As a strategic fortress in Europe, the fortress of Belgrade witnessed more than 2000 years of conflict and integration: from the Roman Legion garrison, Ottoman siege, to the fire of modern world wars, the masonry structure of its city walls clearly presents the architectural technology of different periods. Known as "open-air history textbook". The Sava River and Danube River interchange have a wide view and are the best place to take a panoramic view of the city; the classic seat is next to the Victors Memorial. It is recommended to go in the evening and enjoy the sunset on the riverside.

St. Sava's Cathedral is one of Belgrade's top landmarks and one of the largest Orthodox churches in the world. Its stunning white exterior and huge dome can be seen in all corners of the city. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the catacombsit is beautifully decorated with golden mosaics and a peaceful atmosphere. It’s an ideal place to learn about history, culture and take amazing photos. Parking on the surrounding streets is paid and it’s hard to find a space. It's worth seeing, it's definitely worth seeing.
amazing so beautiful and worth to spend a few hours exploring.i like the fact candle burning is done outside hence preserving paintings.The tiling and mosaic work is just outstanding.

In front of the site of the former Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia, there are stone tablets commemorating the three Chinese journalists who died. We came here to pay homage to the heroes who are sleeping in a foreign country, and never forget the national humiliation! The new "Chinese Cultural Center" building was built on the site, reflecting the rise of the Chinese people.
As time goes by, the traces of the ruins of the Chinese Embassy in the former Yugoslavia will never be erased, and NATO's atrocities are still vivid in people's minds. Although high-rise buildings have been built on the ruins, it still reminds people of the martyrs.

The street is beautiful and suitable for walking. How can you go to Belgrade without a stroll? It is very lively and people are still busy until after midnight so it feels very safe whenever you come. The restaurant is open late and the cafe is open early so you can always find a place to sit and hang out. If you are in Belgrade, this is definitely a must! A beautiful trail lined with ancient buildings, shops, restaurants and cafes. It's bustling, the locals are enjoying life, and they're dressed properly. It's so vibrant and vibrant!
【Knez Mihailova Street】
Knez Mihailova Street
Knez Mihailova Street is connected to the Karamegdan Castle at one end and the Republic Square (Trg Republika) at the other end. It is the most central commercial street in Belgrade, just like the Champs Elysees in Paris. If you choose to stay, staying near here is the best choice. There are some alternative street performers during the day, and the surrounding bars will be very lively after the shops close at night.
The street consists of a large number of buildings from the reign of the Obrenovic and Karajolyević dynasties. The street is about 700 meters long and connects Kalemegdan to other parts of the city. The performances of street singers add to the overall atmosphere of the walk. There are many cafes and restaurants on this street, serving traditional Serbian food. The crowd is densest in the evening.

You need to make an appointment, but I still think it's a little small. We went with a team, so we made an appointment. If you take a taxi, there is a hospital navigation next to us, but it doesn't matter. The crowded place is the museum. The navigation is the archives.

-Hungary! Budapest! Blue Danube
The Danube River in winter is breathtakingly beautiful, with Buda on the west bank
(Buda)
, with Pest on the east coast
, connected by 8 bridges on both sides.
Forming Budapest, the capital of Hungary, it is a rare twin in the world.
City, known as "Little Paris"

The different styles of architecture along the Danube River are fascinating. Want to be close
To see the scenery on the river bank, you can choose to take a walk on #SzéchenyiChainBridge; from the chain
Take the cable car near Ziqiao Qiaotou and go up to Castle Coal for a panoramic view.
Majestic panorama of Budapest
Chicken was once hailed by the French as the quietest city in the world. It can be said that it is right and wrong.
Very suitable for leisure and romance. quality
In addition, prices in Hungary are not very high, but it is best to exchange for some cash in advance.
Local currency (Hungarian Forint).
Here we ordered a squid platter. English is completely OK, and we also ordered a bottle of white wine, but my English is a little poor. I can only say that I can understand it after passing the CET-6, but I can't speak it. The sunset is very beautiful. Also, when you come to Serbia, you must come here to eat seafood.

The church of St. Mark combines Byzantine, Gothic, Renaissance and other styles. The marble columns and large mosaic mosaics inside and outside are amazing, and the gold altar screen is exquisite. It is not only a religious holy place, but also a temple of art.
St. Mark's Church in Belgrade (Serbian: Црква Светог Марка / Crkva Svetog Marka) is a Serbian Orthodox Church in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. The church is located in a park near the Serbian Parliament Building, next to a smaller Russian Orthodox Church, the Belgrade Holy Trinity Church. The church was built between 1931 and 1940. There was a smaller church on the original site, built in 1835.

Tito's Mausoleum, also known as the Flower House, is also a museum. The surroundings are quite nice, with tall trees and an elegant atmosphere. The museum displays some of Tito's personal belongings. Tito's name, birthdate, and death dates are engraved on the mausoleum. There are also two statues of Tito! I highly recommend visiting Tito's Mausoleum!
【Tito Mausoleum】
Кућа цвећа
Tito's Mausoleum is also called "Flower House". It is the cemetery of Tito, the leader of the Yugoslav Federation. It is called "Flower House" because the tomb has always been surrounded by flowers. However, now, the tomb is surrounded by white rocks. Tito's full name is Josip Broz Tito. He was born in Kumrovec Village, Croatia on May 25, 1892.
During World War II, Tito led the armed forces of Yugoslavia to resist the invasion of Germany and was awarded the rank of marshal in 1943. After the establishment of the Yugoslav Federation, Tito has always been the highest leader of the party and the country. He was both the general secretary of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia and the president of the republic. He died of illness on May 4, 1980. After Tito's death, Yugoslavia did not build a mausoleum, but buried him in the flower house of the presidential residence.
