Belgrade
Eastern Europe's wildest nightlife. Big city energy, small city prices.
Loud, generous, gritty and unforgettable. Sava and Danube rivers meeting at the fortress, floating river clubs (splavovi) running till sunrise, and a fast-growing BPO and IT sector.
Multilingual employers concentrate in New Belgrade and Savski Venac. Big German, French, Italian, Russian and Nordic-speaking communities. Salaries go very far locally.
Trams, trolleybuses and an extensive bus network; a monthly Bus Plus card is around 3,300 RSD (€28). Metro construction is underway.
Splavovi (river barges) like Freestyler and Hot Mess in summer, Cetinjska street for bars, Drugstore for techno, and Skadarlija for traditional taverns.
Modern Serbian at Iva New Balkan Cuisine, fish at Lorenzo & Kakalamba, mezze at Ambar, and burek at Pekara Trpković at 4am after a club.
Football derbies at Red Star and Partizan, swim at Ada Ciganlija city beach, kayak the Sava, and weekend trips to Novi Sad and the Fruška Gora wineries.
