Street in Belgrade
Zemun
Zemun is a former Austro-Hungarian border town now absorbed into Belgrade’s northern edge, sitting on the Danube with a distinct identity from the rest of the city. Free to walk. The Gardos Tower, the fish restaurants along the Danube quay, and the slower pace make it feel like a different place entirely. Budget travelers take a cheap bus from the center, eat grilled fish on the waterfront, and climb the Gardos Tower for views over the Danube confluence.
