The Belgrade Fortress is located on a white hill, has been destroyed and rebuilt for over 16 centuries. Today it is a symbol of the capital city Belgrade, Serbia. Because it is located on a high hill, you can see a panoramic view of the Sava River and the Danube River, along with a beautiful view of both sides of Belgrade and the NEW BELGRADE side.
