An unpolished gem

Want to get ahead of the city break crowd? Felt like you missed the plane to Prague or the boat to Budapest? Many cities behind what was the Iron Curtain are now familiar to us, but if you're after an unpolished gem, Belgrade should be top of your list.

Before Yugoslavia's bloody break-up in the early 1990s, tourists flocked to the Dalmatian coast (now part of Croatia) and largely bypassed the Serb capital. But the White City is slowly opening up and offers a nightlife which is hard to beat.
It is a place that embraces pleasant excess. There is no such thing as a rushed restaurant meal, with wonderful fish and meat dishes consumed at a leisurely pace in a haze of cigarette smoke while tamburitza groups play folk favourites at the tables.
It's all going on underground in - and half the fun is finding a local hotspot you might not stumble upon again if you tried. One such bar is the Ben Akiba (on the first floor of Nušiæeva 8) where £2 cocktails are served by friendly waitresses in a place which oozes cool.
If you're not in the mood to seek out hidden watering holes, Strahinjica Bana is a popular strip of bars cheekily nicknamed "Silicon Valley" for its surgically-enhanced female clientele.
Also worth exploring are the bustling houseboats on the Danube and Sava rivers, which cater for drinkers and dancers of all persuasions.
Once your hangover has subsided, there is plenty to see in Belgrade on the morning (or possibly afternoon) after. Be warned though - street signs are in Cyrillic. Most young Serbs speak English however and will happily point you in the right direction.
For excellent views of the Danube and Sava, head to the imposing Kalemegdan fortress. The city's dominant building is the St Sava Church, the world's second biggest.
Further out of the city centre on the Dedinje Hill is the Royal Court compound, which is a must-see. It has only just been opened to tourists and has been a runaway hit. It's best to contact the local tourist office to arrange a tour, which should cost less than £3 each. And if you're lucky the royal family might pop down from their first floor quarters to say hello.
The compound houses two palaces - the White Palace, built in 1934-6 and the Royal Palace, built in 1922. The underground section of the latter is stunningly decorated in the style of the Moscow Kremlin Terem Palace. ... more
