Belgrade Shopping

Wine shop with a nice collection of local, European and international quality wines.
(unfortunately, not Greek ones!)

What to buy: It is a matter of taste!

Even if you don't know what you are looking for, the staff will be happy to guide you through the different qualities, smells and flavours.

At the end of the shopping street, just before crossing to Kalamegdan Fort can be found several stalls selling local crafts and souvenirs. What was striking and something that I really liked was the fact that none of them were the cheap, ugly, made-in-China stuff that can be found in practically all the tourist places in every big city in Europe.

I found one interesting stall selling pottery mugs in various shapes, and handpainted with local scenes in in "fairytale-style" art, if it may be called that. Very artistic, and in nice colour combinations too. One of these mugs, at the time i got it, cost something like 7 euros. On my mug is a sticker saying Design by Mirjana Doric.

It's good practice, if you should get a souvenir, to patronise the local artists and crafts. A small but meaningful way to support the local economy, native art, and what is authentically from that place -- even if they cost a bit more than the usual mass-produced artless stuff (the ubuquitous keychain, for example) passed off as souvenir.

Entering Kalemegdan Park there are a number of stalls set up selling Yugoslav and Serbian Miliatry memeorabilia. You can buy Yugoslav Army pins, military hats, patches, medals and lapel/hat badges. You can also buy old Yugoslav stamps, coins and notes. I couldn't resist buying a 50,000,000,000 dinar note from the height of Yugoslav inflation. For 1 euro I think it's a bargain!

What to buy: Yugoslav Currency - 50 billion dinar note
Yugoslav Military medals
Yugoslav Military Hats, Lapels, Patches and pins
Yugoslav stamps
