Subotica, Serbia

Subotica (Serbian Cyrillic: Суботица  , Hungarian: Szabadka, Bunjevac: Subotica, Croatian: Subotica) is a city and municipality in northern Serbia, in the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina. It is located at 46.07° North, 19.68° East, about 10 km from the border with Hungary. Tourism is significantly important to the city due to Palić and the Palić Lake being near by, which is by itself a tourist destination. In the past few years, Palić has been famous for the Palić Film Festival. Formerly the largest city of Vojvodina region, contemporary Subotica is now the second largest city in the province, following Novi Sad. It is also the fifth largest city in Serbia (discounting Kosovo) after Belgrade, Novi Sad, Niš, and Kragujevac. 

Belgrade, Serbia

Belgrade, at the junction of the Danube and the Sava Rivers, is Serbia’s capital, and, with its population of 1,5 million, also its largest city. Destroyed and rebuilt a number of times during its history, Belgrade has, as a result, fewer monuments to add to its fame. The city consists of 3 districts: Novi Beograd, which is the modern part of the city and the central shopping area; Zemun, which was originally an independent settlement, later joined to Belgrade; and Stari Grad, the old part of the city. The last, located on the opposite side of the Sava, is known for its cobble-stone streets, charming restaurants and Belgrade’s most important attraction – the famous medieval Kalemegdan fortress.
