PATRIARCHATE OF THE SERBIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH
  • Tip Rating:
  • Today's building of the Patriarchate was built in 1934-1935 and designed by the architect Viktor Lukomski. The building has a square base, it is solid and has monumental forms. On the main facade, against the Cathedral Church, an impressive portico stands out, with low columns and an arched portal above which is a sculpted coat of arms of the Serbian Patriarchate. On the top of this facade, in a niche, is a mosaic composition representing St. John the Baptist. In the east part of the building, there is a chapel dedicated to St. Simeon. It contains a carved iconostasis, the work of Ohrid masters, bearing icons painted in 1935 by Vladimir Predojević.
    The Library and Museum of Serbian Orthodox Church are in this building, too.

    GARDOS in Zemun
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you are in Belgrade don’t miss to visit Zemun. Today Zemun is the part of Belgrade but in the past it was separate place. The most interesting to see is Gardos and tower. Tower was constructed by hungarian architects, eclecticaly in mix of the historical styles with emphasis on the roman elments. Building was finished on August 5th 1896 while the ceremonial opening was 15 days later. The whole area around the tower today is popular promenade of people in Zemun better known as Gardos.Milenium monument get name by hungarian hero and great fighter against Turks, Janos Hunjadi who infact did die in mediaeval fort on Gardos but some 440 years before building the milenium tower. Tower was also used by firemen in Zemun as a lookout for a long time.Today Gardos represents part of Zemun which is complex for itself with its own cultural-historicaly heredity.Architecture of the houses on Gardos is different from the rural in other part of Zemun.According to its own specific standing,narrow streets with cobble and the tower, Gardos could represents significant sightseeing atraction also.

    SABORNA CRKVA
  • Tip Rating:
  • It’s located for me in one of the most attractive part of Belgrade called “Kosancicev venac”
    It was built in 1837-1840 by order of Knez Miloš Obrenović, a according to the design and plans of A. F. Kverfeld, a builder from Pančevo. It is built in in style of classicism with late baroque elements. The church is dedicated to St. Michael the Archangel. The interior is richly decorated. The gold-plated carved iconostasis was made by the sculptor Dimitrije Petrović, while the icons on the iconostasis, thrones, choirs and pulpits, as well as those on the walls and arches were painted by Dimitrije Avramović, one of the most distinguished Serbian painters of the XIX century.

    The special value of the church is its treasury. The relics of Serbian saints Czar Uroš and Despot Steva Štiljanović, as well as the heads of the Church and Serbian rulers of the Obrenović dynasty (Miloš, Mihailo and Milan). In front of the main portal, two famous men of Serbian culture: Dositej Obradović and Vuk Stefanović Karadžić.

    THE BAJRAKLI MOSQUE
  • Tip Rating:
  • Built around 1575. as one of 273 mosques and masjids, that have existed in Belgrade in the Turkish times. Originally, its name was Čohadži-mosque, after the endower Hajji-Ali, a cloth merchant. It is a single-spaced building with dome and minaret. During Austrian rule (1717-1739) it was turned into a Catholic church. It was turned back into a mosque when the Turks returned. Hussein-bey, chehaya (assistant) of Turkish chief commander Ali-pasha, renewed the building in 1741, and, for some time after, it was called Hussein-bey's mosque or Hussein-chehaya's mosque. At the end of the XVIII century it was named Bajrakli-mosque, after the flag which has been raised as a sign for simultaneous beginning of prayers in all mosques. After its renewal in the XIX century, made by the Serbian dukes, it became the main city mosque. It is still in function today.

    NATIONAL THEATRE
  • Tip Rating:
  • Built in 1869 according to the design of Aleksandar Bugarski, the most productive architect of Belgrade in the XIX century. The decision to construct a special building for the theatre was made by Knez Mihailo Obrenović. The building was a typical theatre building of the time and was particularly reminiscent of La Scala, Milan, with regard to its Renaissance conception and the decorative finish. Later reconstructions, completely changed the original appearance. The heavy reconstruction was made in 1986 when the theatre regained the 1922 look and an annex was built towards Braće Jugovića Street. Beside theatrical purposes, the hall has been used for charity balls and concerts during the XIX century. The Great Constitutional Assembly adopted the famous 1888 Constitution in this building.

    Stadium FC Red Star " Marakana"
  • Tip Rating:
  • Capacity: 54000 people

    On 29th of May 1991 Red Star became European champion and on 8th of December of the same year the club was World champion.
    That was a magnificent success that assured a place in history of our football for every player of that red-and-white generation. Never before and never after that did a team from Yugoslavia or Serbia and Montenegro achieve anything similar.
