Belgrade is situated at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers, where the Pannonian Plain meets the Balkans. The medieval town of Singidunum, which is the Slavic name of Belgrade known since 878, was built on the site of today's Belgrade Fortress and Kalemegdan Park, above the place where the Sava flows into the Danube. Because of this position Belgrade is appositely called the Gate to the Balkans and the Gate to Central Europe.
One of the most famous writers in Serbia, Dusko Radovic once said:
'Whoever had been lucky to wake up in Belgrade this morning, could be satisfied that for today he achieved enough in life. Any further insistence on something more, would be immodest.' (Dusko Radovic, Serbian poet)
Belgrade is one of the oldest cities in Europe. It has a history of 7000 years, and the oldest archeological finds date back to the fifth millennium AD. Between the 16th and 19th centuries, Belgrade was called by many names in different languages:, Alba Bulgarica, Alba Graeca, Bello grado, Nandor Alba, Griechisch Veissenburg and Castelbianco.
Belgrade is the capital and the largest city of Serbia. The city has a population of 1.23 million.
