Zvezdara's Watchtower Belgrade

Become a watchman

Uroš from Belgrade

""Zvezdara's Watchtower" in Belgrade obviously has fantastic views, but it's also in one of the city's green lungs. Go at night for some stargazing..."

Sometimes, when I want to clear my head from all the stress I've had in a while, I go to this spot, the watchtower of Zvezdara.

I'm lucky enough to work close to it so it takes only a couple of minutes to get there.
Okay, a couple more, 'cause I usually step by the local store to get a drink.

When you climb up, there is obviously a fantastic view. You can see the whole left shore of Belgrade. The industrial zone is located there, as well as the districts called Borcha, Ovcha and Krnjacha (humourously referred to as Cha-cha-cha).

You can easily get to this spot located in one of the lungs of Belgrade by taking bus number 65. You go straight to the last station and then a couple of minutes of walking will get you to the tower.

Across the watchtower there is an observatory (one of the fellow spotters wrote about it) so you can check that too.

Even though the picture was taken in the daytime, I recommend you go at night, because the night's sky looks especially wonderful.

Belgrade Spotter Uroš

About me Oh, I never loved intros. Okay. I'm an engineer, like, that's the thing I make money from. I'm into renewable sources and some other energy-related stuff. I'm a retired football player who wonders why the heck he even played that. I'm also a book and travel lover as well as a LEGO brick and Burago car lover. I'm on a mission to discover as many places as possible that have good beer. So, if you want to get me out of the house, just tell me that we are going for some good beer. I'm also trying to be a some kind of poet. Just trying. Is that ...
