Novi Sad is a unique environment specific for its hospitality, multilingualism and openness. Its inhabitants draw vital energy from the Danube, the river that shaped their temperament and the contours of their city. The capital of Vojvodina, a province in the north of Serbia, will gently and imperceptibly draw you into its carefree ambience. Novi Sad is known as a city where nothing is done in haste, but with measure and purpose, which contributes to a relaxed atmosphere that hardly any big city can boast of. It has a wide variety of places to relax – whether you want to enjoy the banks of the Danube, a walk through the central city streets, or you prefer nature and the view from the nearby Fruška Gora mountain. In the surroundings of Novi Sad, you will find numerous ethno-restaurants and traditional farms where you can spend moments of rest after a walk and enjoy the diverse cuisine of this region. Only then will it really become clear to you why it is said that time runs slower in Novi Sad. Casual, relaxed, surrounded by a fertile plain on one side, and mountains and a river on the other, Novi Sad is a true pearl among the cities of Serbia. Its architecture and spirit have been shaped by many nations throughout history, and it is also called the Serbian Athens and Gibraltar on the Danube. The continuity of the cultural development of Novi Sad is reflected in the duration and development of institutions of national importance, such as Matica srpska and the Serbian National Theatre. You can get an impression of how this city developed from the first half of the 18th century to the middle of the 20th century if you use the walk through the beautiful Petrovaradin fortress to visit the permanent exhibition of the city museum. Novi Sad is a university center and a city of young people, which is why in the 21st century it “earned” two valuable titles – Youth Capital of Europe in 2019 and European Capital of Culture in 2022. The carefree spirit of this city, which attracts more and more people from all over the world, will take you under its wing and you will have nothing left but to surrender to it…
