Belgrade | The 4 Most Worthwhile Places in My Opinion

Traveling with a baby for the first time was challenging due to jet lag, and with only two days in Belgrade, we had to make the most of our limited energy. Here are the absolute must-visit spots: 📍 Saint Sava Church From the outside, it looks unassuming, but step inside—even as an atheist—and you’ll be utterly awestruck! The golden mosaic artwork and immense sense of space amplify the divine atmosphere to an incredible degree. 📍 National Museum of Serbia One of the largest and oldest museums in the Balkans. Ground floor: A paradise for artifact lovers, filled with ancient objects that tell historical tales. Second floor: An overwhelming collection of paintings—Monet, Picasso, Van Gogh, Gauguin, and many lesser-known masters. You could easily spend an entire day here! 📍 Kalemegdan Fortress A historic fortress where the Sava and Danube Rivers meet. Standing atop the fortress, you can witness the breathtaking confluence of the two rivers. Originally built in Roman times and rebuilt during the Austro-Hungarian era, it has survived 115 wars—now transformed into a beautiful green park. 📍 Zemun Climb Gardoš Tower for a panoramic view of the red-roofed houses and the Danube—like stepping into a painting! Or relax by the river and watch the swans. Our little one was so enchanted she refused to leave! ⭐ Bonus Tips: Spend any extra time city walking in Old Belgrade—the historic architecture is incredibly photogenic, so staying in this area is ideal. Public transport: Buses without letters are free! Google Maps works perfectly for navigation. Use buses whenever possible—taxis are ridiculously expensive. Warning: Local food is extremely salty! #Belgrade #SerbiaTravel #TravelingWithBaby #FamilyTravel #ParentingTravel #FamilyVacation
