Belgrade is the long-suffering capital of Serbia

Belgrade is the capital of Serbia and part-time one of the most ancient cities in Europe. It was founded in the 3rd century BC. His first masters were the Celts, who named their city Singidunum. The name Belgrade appeared somewhere in the 7th century, so the city was named by the Slavs, who were impressed by its beautiful white walls. Since no one called this long-suffering city, each invader was thinking up his own version, but still, in the end, he remained Belgrade.

The capital of Serbia has a very good location, perhaps, that is why the rulers of different countries constantly tried to seize this city, not giving peaceful residents peace. About 40 armies on their land saw Serbia. The capital was destroyed to the very foundation, and then rebuilt by hardworking people again and again.

Perhaps there is no more such a European city that would have experienced so many bloody battles and was so many times turned into ruins, like Belgrade. The sights here are scarce, because the conquerors destroyed everything on their way, leaving only ruins. Although, of course, there are some architectural monuments that confirm the existence of different peoples on this land. And Belgrade had time to visit many, it was inhabited by Celts, Huns, Goths, Avars, Slavs, Romans, Franks, Turks. Perhaps, that is why this city is a mixture of eastern and western cultures.

Modern Belgrade is a European city, which is the political, administrative, cultural and tourist center of Serbia. Tourism here only develops, so it seems a unique opportunity to relax very well and relatively inexpensively. High prices here only for living, because there are not so many hotels in the city, but the prices in restaurants, entertainment programs, transportation will pleasantly surprise any foreigner.

The capital of Serbia is a beautiful city with very friendly and friendly people, but it can not be called rich. The economy of the country suffered greatly because of the NATO attack in 1999. In that terrible year, Serbia suffered damage of 30 billion dollars, destroyed many sacred objects, architectural monuments, what was the cultural heritage of the country. Along with the military, civilians were killed, among whom were children. From such a terrible shock, the country will not recover soon.

Let the Serbs and not very rich, but friendly and generous. They try to help each other, because these people are united by a common tragedy. Serbs sincerely rejoice at the peaceful sky above their heads and enjoy peace. Of course, they are just like everyone else, doing their own things - go to work, have fun, sit in a cafe for a cup of tea, but do it leisurely, enjoying every moment of life.

The capital of Serbia is somewhat similar to the cities of neighboring Bulgaria. They have a similar architecture, a way of life for the townspeople. Tourists will be very interested in visiting museums, theaters, there are many international festivals. Belgrade can be called a green city, as there are a lot of parks and parks, there are river islands and a botanical garden. Surprisingly beautiful view opens onto the Sava and the Danube, such a spectacle will never be forgotten.
