Belgrade is emerging from the dark days of the 1990s with energy and vigour. While it may not be the most beautiful of European capitals it certainly has its fair share of historic and architectural treasures. For some visitors Belgrade's mash up of graceful Habsburg masterpieces and socialist concrete blocks sets the backdrop for the phoenix dynamism of the city today, while some are just here to party. Whatever you are looking for there's every chance you'll find it on a Belgrade city break and the best places to stay in Belgrade range from cheap hostels to luxury designer pads.
If you're exploring beyond the centre of town it's worth trying the tram or trolleybus system - easy to navigate and a good way to feel part of the city.
Another way to taste the real Belgrade is to try the local specialities - available in any direction you care to stroll. Bureks or pljeskavica might be difficult to ask for, but worth the twist of your tongue. If you want to try the local brew ask for Jelem and the national spirit is rakija. This comes in a variety of flavours and is drunk as an aperitif, a digestif or chaser.
Belgrade's nightlife continues from bar to restaurant to pub and onto the river itself. Club barges blast out music until dawn for those who have the energy. If you prefer to be home before midnight there are plenty of excellent bars and cafes to enjoy 'an evening out on the town'. Some of the best places to stay in Belgrade are ideal for unlocking the lively nightscene.
