Saint Sava Church – Belgrade

Saint Sava Church – Belgrade

I wrote about the crypt of the Saint Sava church for the first time in 2018. The crypt was its only finished part and was open for visits. I updated that post in 2020, while I stayed in Belgrade for six months during the corona pandemic. At that time they were finishing the mosaic, but I left Belgrade before I could see the finished church. I went back to Belgrade after approximately 3 years. Of course, ...
Is This Belgrade?

Is This Belgrade?

When I saw a building in the main photo of this post, I asked myself: "Is this Belgrade"? Well, it is. Undoubtedly, it's one of the most recognisable buildings in the city centre that everyone living in Belgrade knows. But it looks completely different right now, which you will see later. However, after approximately 90 years this iconic edifice will return to its original glory. But let me explain first ...

Is Belgrade Waterfront a Missed Opportunity?

Is Belgrade Waterfront a missed opportunity? I'm not entirely sure yet, perhaps it's still far too early to ask this question. Although, you can already get a very good idea of how everything will look when they finish the works. Right now, all I see is blocks of flats and nothing else. But I have to be honest and admit that the promenade by the river is beautiful. So, let's start from the beginning. ...

Belgrade in Spring Time

I was in Belgrade in the last week of April. It was my first visit after 6 months that I spent there back in 2020, during the corona time. I remember returning to London in January 2021. Then, I didn't travel anywhere in 2021 because of Covid related travel restrictions. Some people got Covid vaccines in order to travel, but I didn't. I didn't want an experimental medical treatment injected into me for that ...

How Was My Stay in Belgrade?

So, how did my stay in Belgrade go? It's time to have a look at my six months in Serbia last year. I arrived to Belgrade at the beginning of July 2020 and left at the beginning of January this year. I went there for several reasons. First of all, I did some major dental work. For that, Serbia is really the best place. You can get the best dental treatment at a very affordable price, much cheaper than in ...

Is Serbian Food Healthy?

Is Serbian food healthy? I will try to answer this question, although it will be my personal view, based on my recent experience. I was in Serbia, in Belgrade, for six months last year. That was the first time in 30 years for me stay there longer than two weeks, as I live in London. But such short periods of time can't really give us a proper insight into nutritional habits of a place that we are ...

Crypt of Saint Sava Church – Belgrade

I've been in Belgrade for just over two months now. In one of my previous posts, I wrote about many restoration projects that the city authorities were doing in order to improve the way the city looks. But the biggest and most ambitious building project was the Saint Sava church. They have now completed all works and you can visit both the church and the crypt. So, if and when you go to Belgrade, make ...

Serbian Orthodox Churches in Belgrade (part 2)

In this post about Serbian Orthodox churches in Belgrade, I will write about temples that are slightly detached from the most popular touristic areas. It means that it's not likely that you will see them while you are in Belgrade, unless you make a bit of an effort. But, that shouldn't discourage you. The areas of Belgrade where they are located are interesting to see. Also, these Serbian Orthodox ...

Serbian Orthodox Churches in Belgrade (part 1)

Although not numerous, Serbian Orthodox churches in Belgrade are beautiful and very interesting to see. In deeply pious countries such as Italy and Spain, where religion plays a significant role and where Catholic church holds a firm grip on various spheres of life, you can see churches everywhere. In big cities such as Rome or Madrid, churches are in almost every street. But, as a dominant religion of the ...

Zemun

I shouldn't really write a separate post about Zemun. That's because Zemun is a municipality of Belgrade. But, Zemun has been part of Belgrade for only 86 years. For many past centuries, it was a completely independent city. The main reason why I decided to write a separate post is because, when you go to Zemun, it feels like being in a completely different place. The last time I was there it was over 30 ...
