A Trip to Belgrade is one of the best ways to see the sights of one of the most beautiful and historical cities of Europe. The City of Belgrade, which is situated in the Northeastern part of Serbia/ Montenegro. It is a city that was named after the medieval Prince "Admiralty" of the Golden Horde who once governed it. The City is known for its historical attributes and it is home to numerous churches, palaces, monuments, etc. In addition to that, the city has been featured in several films/TV series and is one of the finest examples of former Eastern Bloc nations.

A trip to Belgrade offers a lot of pleasant surprises to the travelers. Being the second most populated city in the entire world, the city boasts of a high standard of life, good healthcare facilities, wide-ranging recreational options, great food, good lodging facilities and a rich cultural heritage. To spend one day in Belgrade is an unforgettable experience. You can get some splendid views of the surrounding area while walking around in the streets or enjoying a ride on a tourist bus. You will surely enjoy the blend of natural beauty and modern lifestyle in this small European city.

Finally, I would like to give some advice to those who come to the White City on their own: be sure to rent a car (I recommend bookingauto.com service). This will allow, in addition to the artifacts of the Old City, to appreciate the "chips" of Belgrade, such as modernism-brutalism, hipsterism and much more.

When you go for a Trip to Belgrade, it is advised that you should not miss out on visiting the beautiful Christmas trees in Belgrade. At the beginning of November, a huge number of tourists throng the city for the celebration of St. Nicholas' day. In fact, during this period, the whole city turns into a Christmas town. Apart from the St. Nicholas' Day, another highly popular festival in autumn called Zestralski sultana occurs where a large number of people visit Belgrade to take part in the celebrations.

There are several tourist attractions that one can view while visiting Belgrade. One of the best known among them is the fortress of Drinje. The name of the fortress comes from the name of the Duke of Burgundy, who once lived in that particular region. The fortress is considered as a fine example of baroque architecture, which was created by the famous architect, Jan Petre. The main entrance to the fortress is guarded by four tall statues of the cardinal.

All these places are known for their archaeological remains. Another worth viewing place is the Balkan castle. The name of the castle is derived from the medieval history when the archduke of Burgundy once served as the protector of the region against the Turkish invasion.

Travelling to Belgrade and visiting its popular sights and activities is a perfect way to beat the summer heat. You can even make your trip hassle free with the help of Belgrade travel insurance. With the help of travel insurance, you can reduce the likelihood of any travel-related complications. The travel insurance policy of your choice should provide coverage for medical assistance, loss of luggage, trip cancellation, trip interruption, trip delays and overnight accommodation in safety. If there are any other benefits offered by the insurance policy such as provision of car rental or tour guide, it would be a good idea to check out whether the benefits are also available in case of any damage to the hotel room or any other property of the tourist.
