Smederevo Fortress
Smederevo · 603m from downtown
Belgrade Fortress
Belgrade Fortress stands on a hill at the confluence of the Sava and the Danube River and is the heart of the city's history. The history of the fortress dates back to the Roman period, and since then, the Byzantines, Ottomans, and Austrians have successively built and fortified it. The layers of walls and towers bear the marks of different civilizations—the Upper Town preserves foundation ruins from the Roman period, the clock tower built by the Ottomans still stands today, and the fortifications reinforced during the Austrian period are also clearly visible. The fortress is divided into the Upper Town and the Lower Town, with Kalemegdan on its perimeter, where statues of Serbian writers and poets are scattered along the walking paths. In the evening, the sunset turns the confluence of the Sava and the Danube River a golden red. Standing on the fortress walls, you can take in the skylines of both banks, and the sunset view is particularly stunning.Belgrade · 42 km from Smederevo
Kalemegdan
Kalemegdan is located in the center of Belgrade, occupying a strategic height at the confluence of the Danube River and the Sava. It is an important park in Belgrade and one of the city's core historical landmarks. The park is integrated with Belgrade Fortress, and the fortifications in the core area are layered—ranging from Roman military camp ruins and Byzantine-era renovations to Ottoman-era gates and towers, as well as Austrian-era fortress reinforcements—almost condensing over 2,000 years of military and political changes in the Balkan Peninsula. Walking along the rampart paths, you can see the Victor statue standing in the Upper Town of the fortress and an observation deck with expansive views, where the Sava flows into the Danube River, offering unobstructed views of Great War Island in the distance and the city skyline along the riverbanks. The park also features a military museum, with an outdoor exhibition of historical equipment such as tanks and artillery, creating a unique contrast with the ancient fortress walls. The park's green spaces are also worth a visit, with tree-lined paths, lawns, and benches scattered among the walls and flower beds, making it a place for local residents to take daily walks and relax. In summer, the park often hosts open-air concerts and cultural performances, adding a touch of contemporary urban life to this ancient space.Belgrade · 41.9 km from Smederevo
Church of Saint Sava
Church of Saint Sava is located on the Vračar Plateau in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. It is one of the largest Orthodox churches in the world and a landmark of Belgrade. The church was built on the site where the remains of Saint Sava were burned—after the Serbian uprising in 1594, the Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire ordered the remains of the founder of the Serbian Orthodox Church and patron saint of the nation to be transported from Mileševa Monastery to Belgrade and burned in public. The church was built to commemorate him. The church features a Serbian-Byzantine Revival style, with striking white marble exterior walls. The central dome is towering and covered with a green copper roof, topped with a gilded cross, making it visible from many corners of Belgrade. The interior of the church is spacious, and the area beneath the main dome is covered with a massive golden mosaic, centered on the image of Christ Pantocrator, which was completed by several Serbian and Russian artists over many years. Standing beneath it and looking up, the golden tones fill the entire view of the dome. The crypt is another major highlight of the visit. This underground hall is decorated in a Byzantine style, with gold as the dominant tone throughout, densely covered with murals and mosaics depicting apostles, martyrs, and saints. The floor is paved with marble marquetry, and some of the inlaid windows use Italian Murano glass. The underground space houses the Chapel of Saint Lazar, where the murals tell the historical stories of medieval Serbia. The church is not only a place of religious worship but also carries the spiritual memory of the Serbian nation. During major religious holidays, a large number of believers gather here from all over to participate in ceremonies.Belgrade · 39.5 km from Smederevo

Kneza Mihaila
Kneza Mihaila is the main pedestrian shopping street in the center of Belgrade, with a total length of approx. 1 km. One end connects to Republic Square, and the other leads directly to Kalemegdan and the Belgrade Fortress. After walking the length of the street, you can continue up the riverside hill to overlook the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers. The street is named after the Serbian Prince Mihailo Obrenović, and his equestrian statue on Republic Square remains a landmark where locals meet to this day. Many mansions built in the late 19th century have been preserved along the street; influential wealthy merchant families of the time bought properties here, and these old buildings now form a charming urban landscape in the Old Town. The entire street is lined with various shops, outdoor cafes, galleries, second-hand bookstores, and antique shops, with street performers and handicraft stalls found everywhere. It is recommended to start from the Republic Square side and take a leisurely stroll to Kalemegdan. Along the way, keep an eye out for the historic building housing the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and if you get tired, there are cafes everywhere to take a break.Belgrade · 41.2 km from Smederevo

What travellers say about Smederevo

Free to visit, both day and night, and the nighttime lighting is beautiful.
Although Belgrade is relatively safe, it's recommended to arrive early and leave early in the evening. I went before 10 PM on a Monday, and there were still quite a few people. Instead of walking along the river, I exited the park northeast and entered the old city's food and beverage district, which was safer.

In the heart of Serbia lies an open-air museum that transcends time: Kalemegdan Park – the soul of Belgrade.
📍Address: Kalemegdan bb 11000, Beograd
Open 24/7, year-round, free of charge. 🌞
☀️Best sunset viewing spot: A view from the city walls in the castle ruins. Sunlight filters through the Drina River, bathing the entire city in golden light. ✨
Standing atop the stone fortress ruins, watching the Danube and Sava rivers converge, this green oasis transforms into a romantic date spot by night. 💕
