Hello everyone and hello for the first time to all ladies of the Ladies of Hive community. A wonderful lady from beautiful Caracas, @coquicoin invited me to join this contest and I will be happy to do so and to go to Caracas as well, to visit her. 🙂
I like the topics very much and I choose this one:
If we were to visit you, what is the one "must-do" in your hometown? Would it be something to eat, a place to visit, a person to meet, or something else?
First of all, welcome to Belgrade! My son and I will be happy to host you. 🙂
"Whoever was lucky enough to wake up in Belgrade this morning, can be considered to have achieved enough in life for today. Any further insistence on something else would be immodest."
Duško Radović
I love this quote because I find it true. I am happy to live in a city that gives me a sense of freedom to be who I am. You will feel a free spirit as soon as you arrive.
First, we go high! 🙂 I will take you to see Belgrade from above, in the palm of your hand. I will take you to Avala Tower, one of the symbols of Belgrade. It is about 200 m high and from above you will be able to see the whole city. This tower was originally demolished during the bombing of my country in 1999, but it has been rebuilt.
And now let's go for a walk... There are places in my city that I like to go to, but many of them are not attractive for tourists, so we will skip them for now and we will go to the street that many people consider the most attractive street in Belgrade. It is Skadarlija, one of the oldest streets in my hometown.
Here you will listen to old town music, feel the spirit of the old times as you walk the cobblestones, and enjoy the beautiful ambiance, especially during the spring and summer when floral decorations give a special charm. This is a bohemian street and has a lot of traditional cuisine restaurants.
So let's have something to eat. 🙂
We go to the Three Hats restaurant, one of the oldest in the city, from the 19th century.
We will eat "ćevapi" (not kebab, it is not the same) and domestic smoked sausages. Cevap is minced meat shaped in the rolls. I'm not a fan of sausages, but in the Three Hats restaurant, you have to love them. 🙂
The restaurant is decorated in a traditional style.
We can continue the walk in the pedestrian zone of Knez Mihailova Street, from Republic Square to Kalemegdan - Belgrade Park and Fortress.
We can eat something sweet here. Waffles, donuts, muffins...
Or drink coffee...
The temple that I respect and consider worth seeing even though I am not very religious is the Temple of Saint Sava, the largest Orthodox church in the world in use. An undeniable fact is that in this temple you can feel peace.
In the end, I have to say Belgrade lives at night, so we will have the best time in the evening. On the river of course.
This is just the beginning of the "must-do" in my city. When you arrive, our journey will continue to amazing places that will surely take you back again to Belgrade.
Thank you very much for reading.
I invite @duvinca to join because I plan to visit her. 🙂
So I need to know the "must-do" of her hometown.
The images and writing are original and mine.
Greetings!
Jelena
What a beautiful stroll through Belgrade, Skadarlija belongs to another time/world. Yep, a time/world traveling is what he had here 😇
Thanks, I am glad you like it!😊 Skadarlija reminds of the past and the spirit of the old times is felt there. Unfortunately, I saw a lot of homeless people walking around that reminds of a sad present.
oh, that is sad indeed :(
I would love to visit Belgrade and also have you here visiting me. 😊
I could spend hours wandering in Skadarlija and much more with the host who accompanies you 🤗
Have a wonderful weekend!
We will definitely organize that visit one day! 😊
We will 🤞😊🤗

Ohhh dear it's impressive and nice your city and how many photos!!! Many places where to walk, where to drink a coffee or enjoy a typical meal, or where to admire the religious art, etc...
Thanks for the mention and it's great if one day you would visit my city too, well I think I don't have so many photos as you have, but give time and I would try to show a bit more of my city, somehow I did it in the past in several posts but I can sum up some different perspectives in just one post, let me see...
Once again thank you!
You are welcome. I am glad you like the post about my city and I am waiting for you here to walk together. 😊
Absolutely a place where to go and in my travel list... I'll let you know, who knows! 🤗🤗

Thank you for sharing your hometown and all those gorgeous pictures and the cute ones of the both of you too ;D
It was my pleasure to share my hometown and I am glad you like it. My son is a good host, I believe you would enjoy with us. 😊 The restaurant was his choice because of the live music. 😊 You are welcome!

Pozdrav iz Novog Sada! :D
Thank you very much Nikolina. Nice to meet you! 😊 Pozdrav za Novi Sad! 😊
Moram priznati da sam malo tužna, kao student turizma, s obzirom da nikada nisam turistički obišla Beograd. Ali radujem se putovanju novim vozom i poseti Beogradu narednog meseca 😍
To bi bilo sjajno, dobrodošla si. 😊 Nemoj biti tužna, biće vremena za sve. Nikada nije kasno. 😊 Imamo zanimljive gradske ture otvorenim autobusom pa možeš za početak tako u razgledanje a onda nastaviš dalje da obilaziš sve što želiš.
