| BELGRADE CAPITAL CITY OF SERBIA |
 |
Financial Times has organized European cities
and regions of the future for 2006/07 and,
after winning the second round, Belgrade was
awarded the name City of the future in
Southern Europe.
The awards were also given to London (City of
the Future in Northern Europe), Paris (City
of the Future in Western Europe), Brno (City
of the Future in Central Europe), and Baku
(City of the Future in Eastern Europe). These
five cities are competing for the final award
of being named the European city of the
future for 2006/07.
Belgrade-One of Europe's oldest cities!!!
Belgrade's wider city area was the birthplace
of the largest prehistoric culture of Europe.
The historic areas and buildings of Belgrade
are among the city's premier attractions.
They include Skadarlija, the National Museum
and adjacent National Theatre, Zemun, Nikola
Pašić Square, Terazije, Students' Square,
the Kalemegdan Fortress, Prince Michael
Street, the Parliament, the Temple of Saint
Sava, and the Old Palace. On top of this,
there are many parks, monuments, museums,
cafés, restaurants and shops on both sides
of the river. The hilltop Avala Monument
offers views over the city.
There is also Beli Dvor or 'White
Palace',house of Royal family Karadjordjevic
,open for visitors.The palace has many
valuable works from Rembrandt, Nicolas
Poussin, Sebastien Bourdon, Paolo Veronese,
Antonio Canaletto, and others.
Ada Ciganlija is a former island on the Sava
river, and Belgrade's biggest sports and
recreational complex. Today it is connected
with the shore, creating an artificial lake
on the river. It is the most popular
destination for Belgraders during the city's
hot summers. There are 7 kilometres of long
beaches and sports facilities for various
sports including golf, football, basketball,
volleyball, rugby union, baseball, and
tennis.
]During summer there are between 200000 and
300000 bathers daily. Clubs work 24 hours a
day,organising live music and overnight beach
parties.Extreme sports are available, like
bungee jumping, water skiing and
paintballing.[99] There are numerous tracks
on the island, where it is possible to ride a
bike, go for a walk or go jogging.
Belgrade has a reputation for offering a
vibrant nightlife, and many clubs that are
open until dawn can be found throughout the
city. The most recognizable nightlife
features of Belgrade are the barges
(splavovi) spread along the banks of the Sava
and Danube Rivers.
Many weekend visitors—particularly from
Greece,Montenegro,Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia
and Slovenia—prefer Belgrade nightlife to
that of their own capitals, due to a
perceived friendly atmosphere, great clubs
and bars, cheap drinks, the lack of language
difficulties, and the lack of restrictive
night life regulation.
A more traditional Serbian nightlife
experience, accompanied by traditional music
known as Starogradska (roughly translated as
Old Town Music), typical of northern Serbia's
urban environments, is most prominent in
Skadarlija, the city's old bohemian
neighbourhood where the poets and artists of
Belgrade gathered in the nineteenth century
and early twentieth century. Skadar Street
(the centre of Skadarlija) and the
surrounding neighbourhood are lined with some
of Belgrade's best and oldest traditional
restaurants (called kafanas in Serbian),
which date back to that period.
IVO ANDRIC-SERBIAN NOBEL PRIZE LAUREATE;
"...the greatest splendour of that sky above
Belgrade, that are the sunsets. In autumn and
in summer, they are broad and bright like
desert mirages, and in winter they are
smothered by murky clouds and dark red hazes.
And in every time of year frequently come the
days when the flame of that sun setting in
the plain, between the rivers beneath
Belgrade, gets reflected way up in the high
celestial dome, and it breaks there and pours
down over the scattered town. Then, for a
moment, the reddish tint of the sun paints
even the remotest corners of Belgrade and
reflects into the windows, even of those
houses it otherwise poorly illuminates."...
