The many castles around the whole territory of Serbia are among the major attractions there. You should visit the huge Petrovaradin Citadel, overlooking the Danube River, in the agglomeration of Novi Sad, the imposing Kalemegdan Fortress in the neighbourhood of Belgrade, Smederevo Fortress, which used to be a capital of Serbia for some time, as well as the scenically located Castle in Golubac, placed on the rocks over the Danube. There are also fortresses dating back to ancient times, such as the Roman palace in Mediana, situated on the outskirts of Nis, and Felix Romuliana in Gamzigrad, a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its beautiful architecture and precious decorations. Also, there are numerous interesting historical towns all over the country. Picturesque Subotica, located in the Voivodina province, is one of the most attractive, but Zrenjanin, Nis and Novi Sad are worth a visit, too. Many tourists go to Studenica, known for its impressive Orthodox monastery, or to Stare Selo with its wooden church, which is a Serbian national treasure.

Its capital city is Belgrade, literally ‘White City’, one of the most visited towns of the country. It’s a city with dramatic history, which experienced violence in 1999 when NATO bombed it in response to the military actions of the Serb army in the Kosovo province. The huge St. Sava Church is a must-see attraction there, and the Old Palace, Belgrade Fortress, Republic Square and Parliament building are also interesting places to visit. A stroll along Knez Mihajlova, the main pedestrian street of the city, gives the opportunity to observe various architectural styles. A wide range of museums, such as the Nikola Tesla Museum, National Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art, Ethnographic Museum or even the Museum of African Art gives tourists a wide choice of attractions. The vibrant nightlife scene is focused in the centre, around the banks of the Sava and Danube Rivers, and along the streets of Obilicev Venac and Strahinjica Bana, both lined with popular cafés.
