If this is the first article of mine that you are reading, I just want to introduce you to my obsession with beer and cafe gardens. The gardens I'm talking about are mostly pretty similar, but I just love exploring the city center and finding quiet places to sit, relax and drink beer.
Telma is just like that. It is a cafe located in the inner center and there is nothing so special about it apart from its great garden. There are no sounds of buses or cars, or any other loud sound you can imagine. It is located close to one of the symbols of Belgrade, Beogradjanka.
The other orientation mark is Hilton hotel. Telma is in one of the little streets behind that big guy.
When you get tired from wandering around, Telma is a place you can step into and find a piece of peace. Instead of beer that I always mention, you can also get some delicious food and other drinks.
The only thing that can be a problem is the crowd. Sometimes you can't even find a seat, because everyone wants to talk in a quiet place. But most of the time, it's not full.
If you stop by on Friday or on a weekend, you can enjoy parties or some other art event. From time to time.
So, if you are coming this to Belgrade and you want to relax from walking through the city, Telma is the place to be.
