About location

Among the places of Central Serbia, Belgrade stands out for its commanding position where the Sava meets the Danube. Kalemegdan Fortress occupies the ridge above their confluence, a strategic site that has shaped the city’s identity for centuries. Across the Sava, New Belgrade extends over a flat former floodplain, developed largely after the Second World War as a planned urban district. Broad boulevards, tram corridors, office buildings and residential towers give it a markedly different rhythm from the older core, where major civic spaces gather around Republic Square and Knez Mihailova Street. Serbia’s capital is both the country’s political centre and its largest city.
