Format:Paperback
This brand-new guidebook authored by Laurence Mitchell offers not only partly extracted texts from his ‘Serbia: Brad Travel guide’, but a whole new and very detailed view of Belgrade, an emerging European city-break travel destination. Having visited the Serbian capital several times, Mitchell describes what he noticed and inspected on the spot, in fact everything that a prospective traveler might encounter in the city. While his first book should unavoidably be read as a general and excellently written introduction to various facets of Serbia and her life, the second book - dedicated to Belgrade and focused on its attractions, serves as a necessary travel companion offering in its 13 chapters a great deal of practical and accurate information, suggestions, well-judged comments on monuments, attractions, hotels, restaurants, cafes, pubs, bars etc. As an experienced local tourism professional I am still wandering how the author succeeded in ‘capturing’ so many interesting details on Belgrade which are hardly known even to Belgraders themselves!

Excellent city guide
3 Jan 2007
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A truly complete guide to one of the most fascinating modern capitol cities in Eastern Europe -- Belgrade, Serbia. From discos to frescos this book describes all the sights in dramatic detail and with some color pictures as well. Since the wars in Yugoslavia, no tour guides have been published, this is the first one to be published since the breakup of the countries in Ex- YU and it is done very well.

Just buy the Serbia Guide
16 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The page count (over 300) led me to expect a guide with extremely detailed information about Belgrade and its sites, restaurants, etc. What I did not notice in the description was the book's dimensions ... it's VERY small. Basically, what you are buying is the "Belgrade" chapter from Bradt's "Serbia" guide, with a minimum of additional information. If you plan on seeing more than just Belgrade, buy the Serbia volume and you'll get almost all the same info, plus info on the rest of the country. If your only destination is Belgrade, I suppose this will save a little room in your luggage.
