Take an evening stroll down...
by greencard
Take an evening stroll down Zmaj Jovina street, which is a pedestrian area downtown between the City Hall and the Orthodox Church administrative building. This is a wide street full of caf?s, stores, kiosks and street vendors. As the weather gets warmer, the street gets fuller and fuller and the cafés outdoor seating areas remain packed until late in the night.
In September, this area of downtown becomes a stage for a children's festival named after one of Serbian most famous poets, Jovan Jovanovic Zmaj. There are poetry readings, singing, dancing, all done by kids not older than 8th grade. Very cute.
Fruska gora
by miman
Fruska gora is an isolated, narrow, island mountain in Pannonia plain. It is intended by river courses extending to the south and north, with some side ranges with steep slopes, spreading from the main narrow range. Its location, specific geological history and different microclimatic conditions make it very interesting and important to science. Thanks to unique and very rich deposits of fossil fauna and flora, Fruska gora is called the 'mirror of geological past'. Fruska gora hides 17 orthodox monasteries famous for their specific architecture, treasuries, libraries and frescoes and numerous archeological sites from prehistoric and historic times as well.
Due to its outstanding natural resources, wonderful landscapes, exceptional charm and beauty, that will bring you closer to nature, Fruska gora is ideal place for rest and recreation.

Architecture
by mikey_e
Architecture in Novi Sad varies greatly, although the vast majority of it dates from the mid-19th century onward (the riots of the Revolution of 1848 caused widespread destruction in the city). Outside of the city’s nucleus, which is around Trg slobode and north of it, the styles of construction are not always very pleasing. As you move away from the centre towards the Danube (that is, to the south) Socialist-era buildings dominate, like a plague that has blighted the city. Novi Sad’s railway station is also Socialist-era, but there is considerably more new development in that part of the city, by which I mean post-Socialist, giving Novi Sad a bit more of a modern feel.
Park games
by Aurorae
Hanging out in the parks is one of the favourite weekend pastimes, especially for kids! The city park in the center is packed, and you can find kids and parents jumping around and chasing the ball, or parents sitting comfortably at benches and watching. It's very active and lively in the parks for the weekend!
