There are the proofs of the Roman presence in the environing villages . It has been well known for instance that the spa of Vrnjacka Banja was used for its soothing water on the III century already. In Middle Ages the environment of Karanovo were developing at the end of the XII century the monastery of Studenica had been erected by Stefan Nemanja, the founder of the dynasty of Nemanjics. At the beginning of 1217 there was a king of Serbia for the first time in the history of this state. To assure the control over this central territory, Nemanjics had constructed the fortress of Maglic on the Ibar. The second important period of the "royal city" it is in the XIX century. Its role in the insurrection against Turks in 1805 and its terrible situation of the cross roads in Sumadija favoured the development of the commerce and the industry. Prince Milos made here a new church to be constructed in 1824 and especially Milan Obrenovic had been crowned 1882 in Zica. Kraljevo maintained its role of the regional metropolis in the XX century, but its central position in Serbia made it learn a tragedy during the II World War. In October 1941 had been passed the order to shoot 100 Serbs for one German soldier killed and 50 of them for one wounded German.

Serbia Serbia has connected West with East for centuries a land in which civilisations, cultures, faiths, climates and landscapes meet and mingle. It is located in the centre of the Balkan Peninsula, in southeastern Europe. The northern portion belongs to central Europe, but in terms of geography and climate it is also partly a Mediterranean country. Serbia is landlocked but as a Danube country it is connected to distant seas and oceans. Serbia is a crossroads of Europe and a geopolitically important territory. The international roads and railway lines, which run through the countrys river valleys, form the shortest link between Western Europe and the Middle East. From the agricultural regions of the Pannonian Plain in the north, across the fertile river valleys and orchard-covered hills of umadija, the landscape of Serbia continues southward, gradually giving way to mountains rich in canyons, gorges and caves, as well as well-preserved forests. Serbias beautiful mountains, national parks, rivers and lakes are the perfect location for an active outdoor holiday from hunting and fishing to extreme sports. Many times during its rich, centuries-long history, Serbia has been at the centre of Europes and the worlds attention, out of all proportion to its modest size, economic might and number of inhabitants. Many lessons on bravery, patriotism and the struggle for freedom can be learned wherever you turn in Serbia, as you pass through its cities and regions. The cultural and historical heritage of Serbia begins with prehistoric archaeological sites and its legacy from classical antiquity. Perhaps its greatest riches, though, are in the many mediaeval Serbian churches and monasteries, some of which are included on the UNESCO World Heritage list. All year round, numerous cultural, entertainment, traditional and sporting events are held in Serbia, demonstrating the creative power and spiritual vitality of this country. Today, Serbia is a modern, democratic European country, on the path to membership of the European Union, which a diverse range of visitors from young backpackers to participants in congresses and fairs visit every page 2 / 9 day. Statistically, the most-visited tourist destinations are the cities of Belgrade and Novi Sad, the mountains of Kopaonik and Zlatibor and the spa towns of Vrnja?ka Banja and Sokobanja. The northern part of Serbia, Vojvodina, located in the Pannonian Plain, is predominately flat. There are also plains in Ma?va, Posavina, Pomoravlje and Stig, as well as in Negotinska Krajina in eastern Serbia. 55% of Serbias land is arable, the large part of which is located in Vojvodina, the countrys main agricultural region. The central part of Serbia and the hilly umadija region are located south of the Sava and Danube rivers. Further south, the hills gradually give way to mountains. The valleys of the Great, South and West Morava, Niava and Ibra rivers cut through the hilly and mountainous areas of Serbia and are the main travel routes. The forest coverage in Serbia is 27.3% in total and regional coverage varies: Vojvodina 6.8%, central Serbia 32.8% and Kosovo and Metohija 39.4%. The mountain landscape of Serbia is rich in canyons, gorges and caves, as well as preserved forests which are home to a multitude of endemic species. Serbias mountains belong to: The Rhodopes range, which runs along the right and left sides of the South and Great Morava rivers. The Carpathians and Balkan Mountains, which are located in the eastern part of Serbia, south of the Danube river. The Dinaric Alps mountain chain, the largest of the mountain regions, is divided into eight sub-regions: Prokletiije, ar, Stari Vlah-Raka, Kopaonik, Kosovo-Metohija, umadija, and the Rudne and Fline mountains. 15 peaks reach an altitude of over 2000 m, of which the highest is ?eravica in the Prokletije, with a height of 2656 m. Serbias rivers belong to the drainage basins of the Black, Adriatic and Aegean seas.

This is a modest one-nave building with an entrance on the west and the apse on the east side. In order to explain a large deviation of the longitudinal axis of the church from the south- east direction, the following has been done: 1) deviation of the longitudinal axis of the church from the east direction (24o to the NE) was accurately measured; 2) a corresponding sector of true horizon of the church was constructed in the orthographic transverse map projection; 3) the position of the point where ends the line of observation in the vertical axis of the church and the position of the point of actual Sunrise of Summer Solstice were determined topographically on the true horizon. Since the distance between these points is about 1.5o, it can be said that the proto- master probably founded the Church St Nicholas on the basis of Summer Solstice. A direct check made on 21st of June, 2011 confirmed the accuracy of the applied method. Key words: mathematical geography, archeoastronomy, church orientation, the St Nicholas’ church, the Studenica monastery Introduction In the Serbian monastery Studenica, thirty meters southeast of the Virgin Church (Fig.

WORD FROM THE EDITOR “Tradition is not preserving the ashes, tradition is keeping the flame.” Read somewhere, sometime, and kept in the memory… Whenever when I go with my daughters to the Belgrade Fortress and Kalemegdan, I tell them legends about the City (because there are still no legends about the park, thanks God). On one occasion, one of them, while explaining me where she had forgotten her gloves which we went there looking for, suddenly said: “… it’s there, by that Manor…”?! I was amazed the fact that with her inward eye she saw the City that was no longer there.

  • Activities in Belgrade
    Activities in Belgrade Sights to see 1. Belgrade Fortress (Kalemegdan Park) The number one must-see location in the city. Some 115 battles have been fought over impressive Kalemegdan. Over the centuries, the citadel has been destroyed more than 40 times. The building of the fortification began in Celtic times, which the Romans extended onto the flood plains during their settlement of 'Singidunum', Belgrade's Roman name. Much of what stands today is the product of 18th-century Austro-Hungarian and TurKish reconstructions. The fort's bloody history, discernible despite today's plethora of jolly cafes and funfairs, only maKes Kalemegdan all the more fascinating. Entering from Knez Mihailova, go through the 18th- century Karadjordje Gate to reach the Upper Town (Gornji grad) of the fortress. From the Stambol Gate (1750), you will reach the Military Museum and the 27.5 metre high ClocK Tower. Further along, you will see a small bricK octagon; this is the 1784 Ali Pasha's Turbeh (tomb), one of Belgrade's few well- preserved Islamic monuments. The Roman Well is nearby, a mysterious 60m deep hole (more a cistern than a well) of dubious origin and shrouded in horrifying legends; apparently the well even managed to creep out a visiting Alfred HitchcocK! Looming beside it is the Victor Monument, a symbol of Belgrade erected in 1928 to commemorate Serbia’s victories over the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Empires during the BalKan Wars and WWI. This 14 metre high monument is the city’s most recognisable landmarK and famous Belgrade attraction. The plateau around the monument is always crowded with tourists and Belgrade natives, partly because of the breath-taKing view over the confluence of the two rivers that flow through Belgrade, and the beauty of this landmarK as part of the historic Belgrade Fortress.
