1. Of all bridges, Branko's is favourite.

3. Residents of the old part still believe that Novi Beograd is a sleeping area. Simply, they are not thrilled with innovations on the other side of the river.

4. The residents of Novi Beograd come to the center only when they have to. Local patriotism is deeply entrenched among the residents of the blocks.

5. Modern supermarkets really offer everything. It does not matter. Belgraders love the markets.


6. The rivers, Danube and Sava and interesting accompanying content are special pride of the capital. Everyone likes to walk by the quay.

7. It can often be heard that people compare Belgrade to Berlin. With due respect, apart from the same passion for beer and sausages, we are completely different.

8. In its rich and not so easy history, Belgrade has suffered numerous disasters. After each war, there were major changes. But a standstill as well. That is why we have facades like in Paris and ruins like at the last point in the world.
