Đeram Market
Our meeting begins at one of Belgrade’s many markets, where I will tell you about the centuries-old market traditions of the city.
Boulevard Walk
We will head down King Alexander Boulevard. I will share the history of this main thoroughfare, its strategic importance over the centuries, and point out fascinating examples of residential and public architecture.
King Alexander Obrenović Monument & Student Residence
At the monument, you will learn about the short, dramatic life of the king after whom the boulevard is named, and the fateful love story that changed the course of Serbian history. Nearby, we will view the student residence building and discuss its architecture.
Cyril and Methodius Park
We will stop by the monuments dedicated to the Slavic enlighteners Cyril and Methodius, as well as Alexander Pushkin. I will tell you about the origins of Slavic literacy and Pushkin's deep literary and cultural ties with the Serbian people.
Vuk Karadžić Monument & Underground Station
Here, we will talk about Vuk Karadžić, the great reformer of the Serbian language. Next, we will step into the concourse of the "Vukov Spomenik" underground station, where I will answer an intriguing question: does Belgrade have a real metro system, and why did its construction turn out the way it did?
Technical Faculties
Further along our route are the majestic buildings of the technical faculties, the Nikola Tesla Monument, and the University Library. I will share the history of science and education in Serbia, as well as the architectural ensemble of this block.
Tašmajdan Park: From Antiquity to Modern Times
We will stroll through Tašmajdan Park, which holds memories dating back to the Romans and the Ottomans. Special attention will be paid to tragic chapters of modern history—the monument to Milica Rakić, the memorial to the fallen RTS workers, and the destroyed television center building damaged during the 1999 bombings.
Russian Church of the Holy Trinity
We will visit the church that became a vital center for the Russian emigration, where General Pyotr Wrangel lies at rest. I will tell you about the history of the community and the significance of this place for Belgrade.
St. Mark's Church
One of the city's most impressive and beautiful churches. We will examine its architecture in detail and talk about its rich history.
Government District
Continuing our walk, we will see the Embassy of the Czech Republic, the majestic Main Post Office, and the Parliament of Serbia. I will share details about the architectural features of these monumental buildings and the pivotal events that took place within them.
"Pelivan" Pastry Shop
Our tour concludes at the famous "Pelivan" pastry shop—the oldest sweet shop in Belgrade. Here, you can relax, enjoy time-tested recipes, and soak in the spirit of the old city.
