B Grade Belgrade
SERBIA & MONTENEGRO | Wednesday, 5 September 2007 | Views [329]
After having a great time in Sarajevo, Belgrade was always going to struggle to compare. It is a much bigger city, lacking a lot of the charm which Sarajevo has.
There are a few tourist sites such as the Palace, which over looks the Sava River and the bohemian restaurant street, where you can grab a great bite to eat, however, our highlight was the hostel, which never says much for a city.
We did try to head out one night to the floating bars on the Sava yet we found only one open? The next bar we went into we copped it from the locals for speaking English, so left, until we finally found a Scottish bar, complete with Serbians sporting Kilts. We were not allowed to sit down here, despite numerous spare tables, so had to stand at the bar and our whaaaaaaaate waaaaaaaaahne was decidedly red!!
After these experiences we decided the next day it would be a good idea to leave and so made our way to Bucharest, written up in my LP as the new Prague. We had been pretty lucky up until this point so were hoping this luck would return as we headed into Romania ....
