If you’re planning a trip to Serbia’s vibrant capital, you’re in for a treat. Belgrade is a city of contrast — where ancient fortresses overlook modern riverfronts, and bohemian charm meets buzzing nightlife. To help you make the most of your visit, here are 10 must-see tourist attractions in Belgrade, along with a cozy, centrally located place to stay: Marasca Belgrade Apartment.
1. Kalemegdan Fortress
One of the most iconic tourist attractions in Belgrade, Kalemegdan sits atop a hill where the Sava and Danube rivers meet. Wander through its historic walls, enjoy sweeping views of the city, and explore the surrounding park — perfect for a sunset stroll.
2. Knez Mihailova Street
This bustling pedestrian zone is a favorite for shopping, people-watching, and street performances. It’s one of the most visited tourist spots in Belgrade, linking Kalemegdan with Republic Square.
3. Skadarlija Bohemian Quarter
Often compared to Paris’ Montmartre, Skadarlija is a charming cobbled street full of traditional Serbian restaurants, live music, and old-world atmosphere — a true highlight among Belgrade’s tourist attractions.
4. Temple of Saint Sava
As one of the largest Orthodox churches in the world, this architectural marvel is a key cultural and spiritual landmark — and one of the most photographed tourist attractions in Belgrade.
5. Belgrade Waterfront & Sava Promenada
This revitalized riverside area offers relaxing walks, bike rides, cafes, and spectacular views. A modern contrast to Belgrade’s historic core, and a growing favorite among visitors.
6. Zemun and Gardos Tower
Technically part of Belgrade, Zemun offers a quieter, more romantic vibe. Visit Gardos Tower for panoramic views and enjoy the local food scene along the Danube.
7. Nikola Tesla Museum
No list of tourist attractions in Belgrade would be complete without mentioning this fascinating museum, dedicated to one of the world’s greatest inventors. It’s interactive, educational, and fun.
8. Ada Ciganlija
Known as “Belgrade’s Sea,” Ada is a favorite summer destination. With its lake, sports facilities, and beach bars, it’s a refreshing escape — just 15 minutes from the city center.
9. Republic Square
A central hub surrounded by cultural landmarks like the National Museum and National Theatre, Republic Square is a common meeting point and starting spot for exploring tourist attractions in Belgrade.
10. Museum of Contemporary Art
Located just across the river from Kalemegdan, this museum offers a thought-provoking collection of modern art. It’s a peaceful and inspiring stop, especially for design and art lovers.
