SERBIA's most DIVERSE City! What's it like? (Novi Sad is NOT what you expect) near Belgrade, Serbia

[@vladanjovanovic6761]

The church is different from the others because it's Catholic. The ones you previously visited were Orthodox. While Novi Sad is diverse you would have a hard time finding Russians, Albanians or Saudis(lol). There were a lot of Germans(Volksdeutsche) there, but not after WW2.Most of the minority communities consist of Hungarians, Slovaks, Rusyns(not Russians) ,Roma(Gypsies) and some other, really small ones. The people on the wall are high school graduates.

It's like going to Instabul and saying you can see the influence of Constantinople... You're talking nonsense 1975 The Serbian Voivodeship changes its name to Vojvodina .. Both before and now, Serbs lived here during the reign of the Serbian King, this area was called Sorabicus Pannonia ... Hungarians and Austrians committed atrocities and threw Serbs under the ice and forcibly built buildings! During the occupation, Vojvodina was called Vojna Krajna and Novi Sad, first Raška and then Bistrica. There are minorities here as well as everywhere in the world, Serbs make up 95% of the population from Vojvodina to writers, this is all Serbia and Serbia, only that Vojvodina respect the minority and allow normal coexistence, so don't lie and don't talk nonsense, you are probably a descendant of the Nazis 🙂

My favorite city. I did my studies there. "Fancy palace" on the pedestrian street is, let's say "Biscop's palace", it has been built in 1741. The church behind it is the Cathedral Church of the Holy Great-Martyr George and it is the seat of the Serbian Orthodox Eparchy of Bačka, it has been built in 1734. If you are going to visit Novi Sad again, or you are still there, go to Laze Teleckog street during the night (especially during the weekends), also, you should try Banjalucki Cevap from Gajeva street. In Laze Teleckog street, try to find a place called "PUBeraj", they have a very nice garden behind. Actually, you should check every bar there in that street and see what is most suitable for you. Gerila Bar is Rock-Metal-Punk place, Lazino Sokace is hardcore nationalist Serbian place, etc. If you like nice restaurants on the river, then you should visit "Ribarsko Ostrvo". (I prefer the restaurant Piknik there, it is not that fancy, and you have a small animal farm next to it.) The Museum of Vojvodina is a great place to visit also, they have a nice collection of artifacts, some are dated 6500 years BC. If you want to feel the "vibe" of the city, take an evening or night walk on the Danube quay and visit Monument to the Victims of the Raid again. You can also visit "Fontana Kod Bajića" where students are gathering. I do not know is it all open or are there some gatherings during this Covid situation, but it is worth trying. Sorry for drawing you into the sea of information, but I really miss that city, and I would like to show all its beauty to people. :D Greeting from Oslo, and have fun in Novi Sad. ps. If you like very big and good "punjena pljeskavica" you should visit the "ZAR MANCE" on "Jevrejska" street.

[@EvanRamani]

Friend, visit my town Niš. That is southern Serbia. Our traditional restaurants we call "kafane" (plural) "kafana" (singular). In kafana you can eat Serbian traditional food. In restaurants (we call them only restaurants, not kafane), you can eat international food. My recommendation is kafana "Orač", kafana "Dagi Plus", kafana "Mrak", kafana "Stambolijski". Our most famous salad is "Šopska salata". Always ask the waiters what they recommend of the food. In Niš, you can visit Skull tower and our fortress. Take a walk by the river at night to see how people are having fun. You are completely safe in every part of the city. There is almost no crime in Serbia.

[@ilijahadzic7468]

3:55: "wanted man and women". Dude, you gave me a good laugh. These are graduates from local high schools. Novi Sad has a tradition of honoring the high school graduates of this way. Each class would design their own poster, which is displayed at the end of their senior year and would remain on public display throughout the summer, often in windows of local shops and business, but sometimes on a dedicated display stand.

Just small correction. Russians makes relatively small national group in Novi Sad. Mostly kids of noble and educated people escaped from Russia during famous Red Revolution. They contributed a lot in building of modern Serbia, makes first schools, hospitals, modern institutions in rural regions of Serbia. Btw. Novi Sad is faraway richest serbian city, together with Belgrade. Novi Sad population makes around 5% of population of Serbia but Novi Sad contributes in serbian GDP by 7 - 10%. Also, Belgrade population makes 23-25% of population of Serbia but Belgrade contributes in serbian GDP by 37 - 40%.

If you just ask for espresso, you will get just espresso without any milk, if you want milk in your coffee you should ask for macchiato or cappuccino. This is the same in Italy and any other country in Europe. In Serbia we have “duži sa mlekom” and it’s similar to cappuccino but with less milk. But we mostly drink “domaća” coffee. I think Mocha is made with chocolate and other flavors. But most of the coffee shops have Caffe Americano if you prefer that one (espresso with hot water) 😁
