The capital and largest city of Serbia is located at the confluence of the Danube and Sava rivers. Belgrade is sometimes referred to as the Paris of the Balkans. The name of the city translates to “White City,” derived from the white stone of the local Kalemegdan Fortress with its expansive park. From Kalemegdan, there is a view of the confluence of the two European rivers and part of the city of Novi Beograd. The Temple of Saint Sava is considered the oldest Orthodox church in the Balkans. It is also one of the largest Orthodox churches in the world, with a capacity of 10,000 people. Construction began in 1936, and it is still awaiting completion. Belgrade will surprise you with the beauty of its streets in the historic part of the city.
