7 Beautiful Places in Belgrade Within Walking Distance

Delia Tugui | November 25, 2015

When you’re in Belgrade, you can forget about worrying about getting around! No bus tickets, no waiting lines, and no tough traffic – everything’s within walking distance over here! With just one pair of feet, you’ll be able to see so much of this city!

I’ll take you one tour you’ll never forget. Are you ready?

The Belgrade Zoo will be our first stop

We’ll start our walking tour from the very center of the city, where the zoo can be easily found. Watching furry fellows, admiring gracious birds, taking lots of picture, relaxing and charging our batteries for the long, upcoming itinerary – these are the wild activities which we’ll be engaging ourselves with for a while.

Founded in 1936, The Belgrade Zoo is one of the oldest places of its kind in Europe and it currently hosts 2,000 animals from 211 species. The roars, tweets, growls and quacks will blend together, creating one of the most natural and pleasant melodies you can hear. No classical music composer can beat that!

Did you know that the sound made by an elephant is called a trumpet? And maybe you’ll be lucky enough to hear it from the zoo’s trunk owning inhabitant, with its residence very close to the entrance. Welcoming, isn’t it?
