Serbian architects took over the development from the foreign builders in the late 19th century, producing the National Theatre, Old Palace, Cathedral Church and later, in the early 20th century, the National Assembly and National Museum, influenced by art nouveau. Elements of Neo- Byzantine architecture are present in buildings such as Vuk’s Foundation, old Post Office in Kosovska street, and sacral architecture, such as St. Mark’s Church (based on the Gračanica (monastery), and the Temple of Saint Sava. 2 2 1 11th CMAS World Freediving Indoor Championship 2021 SPORT-RECREATION CENTER “MILAN GALE MUŠKATIROVIĆ” With complete confidence, “Milan Gale Muškatirović” can be considered a sport-recreation center with the most beautiful location in Belgrade. In such an environment perfectly fits gracefully as the grandiose modernist masterpiece of architect academician Ivo Antic – according to many, the most beautiful sports and recreational center of the capital, the building where the view can rest as much as on its surroundings. On the other hand, SRC “Milan Gale Muškatirović” is a sports and recreation center with perhaps the most diverse and active offer in Belgrade: – Three outdoor swimming pools (one for international competitions, one with elements of recreational water park, one for children), indoor swimming pool (sauns block with wet and dry Finnish sauna, infrared sauna and a small swimming pool), two halls for indoor sports, and coffee bar Center. eediving Indoor Championship 2021 orld Fr 11th CMAS W 3 2 1 11th CMAS World Freediving Indoor Championship 2021 Belgrade (Serbian: Београд / Beograd) is the capital and largest city of Serbia.
