Belgrade perhaps lacks cultural diversity, but it doesn't lack cultural acceptance. Serbia is not a country of immigration, like west European countries, simply because it cannot offer economic perspective for immigrants, like most west European countries. It is the country of emigration.

That is the only reason why Serbia and Belgrade lacks cultural diversity in the brother sense that West European countries know.
But people in Belgrade are cosmopolitan, friendly and open minded.

I completely disagree with the comment about Belgrade lacking cultural diversity and acceptance. Belgrade is a multinational city and everyone has always and always will be well accepted. Sorry if you had a bad experience, maybe you had run into some wrong people. They are always some of those aroun

I can understand Cuthbert's perspective, coming from an exciting city like Manchester.

Belgrade is a 'happening place' for those in and around the Balkans, however it lacks the cultural diversity, cultural acceptance and multi-cultural joie-de-vivre of bigger ,more affluent cities and more creative cities - sorry Belgrade :(

It's really a city that loves the night. Sure you have you pick of clubs and great restaurants serving until the wee hours but any night you'll also see everyone - little kids too out strolling the open shops and pedestrian zones down town. They really got something. Even from New Orleans I envy!

Spot-on article. I followed my Serbian girlfriend to Belgrade a year ago and was very sorry to leave. What a great place! I will certainly be returning; for more than one reason...

A very positive and realistic article. If you want to experience something different and unforgettable, come to Belgarde, you won't regret it!

Danijela, Belgrade, Serbia

It always a pleasure to see Belgrade and Serbia get positive press on the road to getting back to their rightful place in the region and Europe. All of us who know Belgrade, already know what a great city it is.

I was lucky enough to visit Amsterdam, Berlin, Vienna, Prague, Zagreb, Ljubljana, Budapest, Bratislava, Podgorica and Belgrade in a 4-week solo tour. Belgrade is easily in the top five of the capitals I visited because it is so cosmopolitan - influenced by the past and the future, full of life. 321

Do not forget to visit Duff and taste the best burgers in Belgrade. There are 5 of them and almost everyone knows where they are so getting directions should not be a problem

Ivan, Belgrade,

Often restaurants by the river serve terrible greasy rubbish so beware. Finally – a great scene but no proper gypsy clubs in city centre!!! Why not? And don’t mention the black panther as it’s a nightmare to get to - especially for a tourist!

It is small, hard to find and looks closed most of the time. The food is excellent, huge portions and very cheap. Try the excellent veal soup, mixed grill and filled pancake for dessert – if you can manage a dessert. “?” is nice and in a good location but food not quite as good.

Caslav McKenzie, Glasgow, Scotland

As a Scot with a Serbian wife and family I visit Belgrade on numerous occasions every year. Belgrade is fantastic. I have to recommend the finest cheapest restaurant in Belgrade. Raš or Рас in Cyrillic is a small restaurant in a small arcade sort of place right behind the big cathedral(City Centre)

DO NOT MISS Žabar (Frog) a river raft restaurant near Monce at Zemun quay

Belgrade and the whole of Serbia has a long way to go yet, but I hope they soon join the EU where they rightfully belong.

Howard Rhoades, London, UK

Its on a par with Caernarfon, no doubt about that.

hood, denbigh, wales

Stanley, Oxford, GB

Now how about some cheap flights London to Belgrade?

DO NOT MISS:
"Stepin Vajat" for the best grill meat (pljeskavica and chevapcici) in Belgrade!

Z. Ristic, Belgrade,

It's an amazing place to have fun and enjoy the night life. I can confirm that the women in Silicon valley are simply the best ever.
