Serbia

Belgrade is the center of political and cultural life in the country.
The House of the National  Assembly of Serbia
Full house of around 95 guests and enjoying the evening.
Entrance to a farm where we have a traditional Serbian feast. It was very good.
The local parks seem to be cared for very well.
Cool looking outdoor restaurant with umbrellas inverted upside down for  shade.
Belgrade Fortress, consists of the old citadel and Kalemegdan Park on the confluence of the River Sava and Danube, in an urban area of modern Belgrade, the capital of Serbia
Local students on a field trip in Belgrade Fortress.
Belgrade Fortress is the core and the oldest section of the urban area of Belgrade. For centuries the city population was concentrated only within the walls of the fortress, and thus the history of the fortress, until most recent times, equals the history of Belgrade itself.. The first mention of the city is when it was founded in the 3rd century BC by the Celtic tribe of Scordisci, who had defeated  tribes that previously lived in and around the fort. The city-fortress was later conquered by the Romans had a fortified camp on a hill at the confluence of the Danube and the Sava rivers.
The Sava and the Danube rivers meet in the distance
The table where I was seated in the corner of all the glass looking out. Can't beat the views of the farm.
Lots of students take day trips here for a class study on history.
Local park and a statue are very restful.

We were in Belgrade the beginning of May as the weather was warming. Numerous outdoor cafes were opening for the summer. Lots of people were out enjoying the warmer weather.
I spotted a location where the Rotary Club meets weekly. Having been a Rotarian for over 40 years I wanted a photo of their local flag. The restaurant thought I was crazy.
Belgrade is a great city to walk around in warm weather.
View inside the dining hall is quite large.  All food is prepared in an adjacent building  across the patio area.
