After breakfast, we’ll start with our Belgrade sightseeing tour. Today we will
show you almost all the most important sights in the city.

of the Sava and Danube rivers. We’ll check the Victor Monument, Monument of
Gratitude to France, Zindan Gate, The Chapel of Saint Petka, Clock Gate, and The Clock
Tower.

characteristic of its Central European appearance, charming quarters, cobblestone streets,
and fish restaurants on the Danube River banks. Its curvy cobblestone streets and small
houses will give you the impression that Zemun is a melting pot of Mediterranean and
Middle European cultures.

before we reach the imposing Saint Sava Temple, one of the world’s largest Orthodox
churches.

famous Roman Emperor Constantine the Great, the city of Nis.
 First, we will visit the Niš Fortress, lying on the bank of the Nišava River. It assumed its final shape in 1723, when the Turks built it, facing the end of their reign in this area. We will continue our sightseeing of the most important sights in the city, including the Banovina Building, Niš Liberators Monument at King Milan Square, The Monument of well-known Serbian writer Stevan Sremac, Mediana Archeological Site, and the infamous Skull Tower – the monument unique in the world, erected by the Turks as an example to others of the folly of opposition to their rule.
