ulica, Novi Sad

Serbia’s lively capital, Belgrade, stands at the

centre of the country’s transport network. Beyond

the capi tal are a number of impressive cultural

monu ments as well as picturesque towns. North

of Belgrade are the flatlands of Vojvodina, home

to the city of Novi Sad and its riverside fortress as

well as the border town of Subotica, while to the

south are the Sopoćani and Studenica monas teries.

Travelling by bus is the preferred choice of trans-

por tation; trains are crowded and can get delayed.
