A lesson in Histroy

#myhiddengems I was glad to be part of a tour that had a very good guide. This made the trip very enriching with so much history being revealed. Firstly the complex in which both the fortress and the park are, is a very beautiful location by the confluence of two rivers. Our guided tour started in the Upper Town, where the imposing walls and towers provided a sense of defense. There are various bastions, gates, and the impressive Clock Tower. The military museum, located within the fortress was very captivating with its extensive collection of artifacts, weapons, and exhibits detailing Serbia’s military history. On the whole this is a historically rich site dating back to the Romans. The other things in the complex like the park too are significant with its own unique offering. It has a beautiful space with well-maintained gardens, walking paths, and plenty of spots for picnics and relaxation. From the fortress you will have a spectacular view of the city and the rivers. A trip here is a must when in Belgrade. #myhiddengems #belgrade #summerdestinations #history #serbia #100waysoftravel #fortress
