My little trip to Belgrade. (International Workers' Day)

Today is 1. May, International Workers' Day or also known as Labour day so my friends and i took a little trip with "old wolf" Stojadin (Or Zastava 101) car that was manufactured in old Yugoslavia. We went to see Avala tower and Kalemegdan fortress in Belgrade.

Little history about Avala tower. Avala tower is tall telecommunication that is located on mountain Avala in Belgrade. Tower was built back in 1965. but it was destroyed back in 1999. on 23. april, by NATO. Reconstruction was started in 2006. and it was officially opened on 21. april 2010. It's tallest tower in Balkans (204m tall).

Kalemegdan fortress oversees the confluence of the two rivers (Sava and Danube) that flows through Belgrade. It was built back in 279 BC. There is a lot of historical moments that were here but i will not talk about it, i will leave you a link where you can read all about it here.

Sometimes you just need to look up and see beauty of nature in other perspective.

On the road we stopped to see Monument to Soviet War Veterans, that were killed in an airplane crash on the Avala back in 19. october 1964.

At this point, we were sitting on bench near monument and saw those big ants, they were eating little ants. Is this insect cannibalism? :D

I saw this interesting insect that i have never seen before. If someone knows what insect is, please tell me. :D

We first headed to Monument to the Unknown Hero, here was buried Serbian World War 1 soldier.

Here is the view you are getting when you go by the stairs to the monument, amazing.

Those are few photos that you will get when you go to see Monument to the Unknown Hero. There is a lot of space where you can walk and see beautiful panoramas of Belgrade and nature is beautiful.

And here is Avala tower, located about 1,5 km from Monument to the Unknown Hero.

When you go up on tower you will see beautiful 360 degree panorama of Belgrade and fields, trees etc. I captured few of photos, view is stunning as you can see.

On Kalemegdan i took only few photos, cause my battery on camera died. This is Monument of The Victor (Pobednik)

And this is just photo of an old house. Photo is interesting cause only one window is painted in white and everything else looks old and fragile.

Thank you for stopping by. Have a nice day/night, depends where you are from. :D
