City in Serbia

Novi Sad

5 things to see

Novi Sad is Serbia’s second city on the Danube, with a beautiful Petrovaradin Fortress (free to explore for the views over the river), the EXIT music festival, and a relaxed cafe culture at extremely affordable prices. The pedestrian old town around Trg Slobode and the riverside paths cost nothing to wander. It sits a short, cheap train or bus ride from Belgrade, making the two an easy budget pairing. Outside the EXIT festival weeks the city is calmer and rooms run cheaper.
