This is my first entry of Serbia postcards, and I haven’t got many postcards from there anyway but I received this snowy card a couple of months ago and I thought I could put it with another Belgrade card I received sometime last year. As you know Belgrade is the capital of Serbia, and was also the capital of Yugoslavia and Serbia-Montenegro in the past… and it’s obviously one of the oldest cities in Europe.
From BraveJ. This artistic atmosphere with untouched snow is in Skadarlija, an old part of Belgrade with its bohemian features from the late 19th century where its taverns were frequently visited by the city’s famous writers, actors, musicians and painters. There are still many restaurants here that serve traditional food and where you can hear traditional music… well it does sound like a perfect hangout place for me :)
From Tram. This vintage reprint card shows the Novi Dvor, or the New Royal Palace of Belgrade, as it used to be. Today it houses the Presidency of Serbia. Novi Dvor was built between 1913 and 1918 as official royal court of Serbia.
