Interested in visiting Belgrade? Well if you are then this is a street you shouldn't miss...
Knez Mihailova Street or Prince Michael Street, properly Kneza Mihaila is the main pedestrian and shopping zone in Belgrade, and is protected by law as one of the oldest and most valuable landmarks of the city. Named after Mihailo Obrenović III, Prince of Serbia, it features a number of buildings and mansions built during the late 1870s.
At the beginning of Knez Mihailova stands the Vapiano restaurant, a little further you will find the Serbian Academy of Science and Art (SANU). The ground floor of SANU has been transformed into a huge exhibition space where concerts and exhibitions are held regularly. If you pay attention, you will notice a pyramid standing in front of the building. This pyramid shows the coordinates of Belgrade and celebrates science at the same time! At the very end of Knez Mihailova stands the City Library that used to be known as the Serbian Crown Hotel, the most modern hotel in Belgrade in the mid-19th century.
Besides these buildings, French, Spanish and German cultural centres, and the Zepter Museum are also located in Knez Mihailova.
In the vicinity of the street lie the National Theatre and National Museum, cinemas, and many hotels and hostels.
Until a couple of years ago, Knez Mihailova was the main shopping zone of the city. Although now Belgradians predominantly spend most of their money in shopping malls, there is something special about shopping in Knez Mihailova. While strolling down the street you can visit famous shopping outlets such as Gap, Max Mara, Zara, Mango, Diesel, Miss Sixty, Springfield and many others.
Knez Mihailova is a common meeting point for Belgraders. The street has been named one of the most beautiful pedestrian zones in Eastern Europe and is a constant buzz of people and tourists. Thousands of people stroll along the street every day as it is the shortest path from Terazije to Kalemegdan park and fortress.
If you have nothing better to do with your time then I would wholeheartedly recommend you go and visit Knez Mihailova as you will not be disappointed by all the things you will find!
Be the part of the tradition, visit Belgrade!
