About Serbia
Belgrade's riverside buzz, grand temples and warm Balkan soul
Serbia is the warm, unpretentious heart of the Balkans — Belgrade rising where the Sava meets the Danube, its riverside bars and clubs buzzing beneath the ancient Kalemegdan fortress and the vast white dome of St Sava.
Wander bohemian Skadarlija, raise a rakija toast, explore laid-back Novi Sad and the Fruška Gora monasteries, and discover a nation famed for hospitality, feasting and an irrepressible love of life.
Local Culture
Serbian culture is generous, expressive and proud — Orthodox faith and grand churches, the trumpet blasts of Balkan brass, strong coffee and rakija toasts, and a feast-loving hospitality where no guest leaves hungry. Belgrade's nightlife is famous across Europe.
