All other regular city buses, trams, trolleys and city trains are free as of 1st of january 2025. You have 72 line that runs from the airport to the center, or 600, which is faster since it's going over the highway and end up at Belgrade's main railway station (just across the street from museum of Yugoslavia), but you can leave at Mostar stop and then switch to buses/trams toward the center. There is new railway extension being built to the airport, so in few years there should be city train line from the airport to the city.

    Also definitely visit Novi Sad, it is a beautiful town, it is just 30 min ride by fast train from Belgrade, they run every 1h and you can buy the ticket over the app with card. By march/april 2025 200 km/h train line extension should open from Novi Sad to city of Subotica, it is north on the border with Hungary, it is also beautiful city, and by new train ride will be only 1h30 minutes.

Vise prisustva na sajmovima turizma i puno rada na promoviranju kulture, gastronomije, povjesti ...... jako je ruzno sto nemaju ni najmanji uvid sta bi bilo lijepo posjetiti . To sto je sve besplatno je pravi uzas za turizam u Srbiji. Turisticke zajednice trebaju imati svoj info point na raznim djelovima grada , depliani, mape,internet stranice u hotelima se na tv trebaju vrtiti slike iz cijele Srbije, turizam je ozbiljna grana ekonomije koju pod hitno treba razvijati.

    25:50 public transport if FREE in Serbia, this is a reason why drivers tells u, u not need to pay. About credit card. All credit cards works in Serbia, i really do not know why your does not.
    Reason for no racism in Serbia is because we do not have to many immmigrants like wester european countries. In latest times we have it more and more, mostly from India, Nepal, Shri Lanka,Bangladeshand Kenya.Also arount 20 000 people from Turkey and China as a workers who will back home when they finish their work here, smaller number will stay, mostly delivery workers and truck and public transport drivers- Second reason is culture. For example, in Serbia, we have free to stay hotels. U can enter, take a room, sleep and go out. At the entrance in hotel, u will found big plastic or metal box, where u can put money if u want. It is your free will. Welcoming culture here is very strong. Also, about racism.Euurope is full of immigrants and racism there is stronger. You know. "They will tak our jobs, they are different then we are,... So, this is a reason for some racism in Europe. I suposse, i am not sure 100% in my words.

I found out that I used contactless payment a lot of times that’s why it stopped working so I just had to type my pin and it worked again. I had cash with me so the gentleman who offered to pay when I had a problem with my card didn’t have to pay for the groceries.

    13:32 Tito was a crude and merciless dictator, and of Croat origin. He manipulated borders. and gave to Croatia many regions and areas which has nothing to do with Croatia (Dalmatia, Slavonia, Istria, Krajina. Baranya...) During the WW2, ustasha regime organized many extermination camps for non-Croats (mainly Serbs, Jews tortured and slaughtered in Croatian death camps like Jasenovac, Jadovno, Stara Gradiska, and many more) , And although Tito was a leader of partisans, he never even tried to attack or liberate any of the camps, since he closely cooperated with ustasha regime and against the Serbs.

    Dear woman, go eat something for breakfast to get your voice. It's like you're being fed with the seeds you've been watching the video, as if someone wants to shoot you. Let your voice and soul go and enjoy.

      Someone already asked me this question and here is my answer.
      I didn’t expect the people to be so nice. I have been to other European countries and not everyone is so kind-hearted and helpful.
