It lies on two rivers \u2013 the Sava and the Danube \u2013 which surround it on three sides. Belgrade is located at the crossroads of important European routes and corridors, including the east-west route along the Danube River from Vienna to the Black Sea, the western route along the Sava River valley toward Trieste and northern Italy, and the southeastern route through the valleys of the Velika Morava, Ju\u017ena Morava and Vardar rivers toward the Aegean Sea. This position makes Belgrade a strategically important city in the region.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Belgrade is among the older European cities, with archaeological sites dating back to the fifth millennium BC. The Celtic tribe founded Singidunum in the 3rd century BC, while the first recorded mention of Belgrade dates back to 878 AD. Throughout its long and turbulent history, Belgrade was conquered as many as 40 times and rebuilt from ruins 38 times on the plateau between two rivers, as evidenced by its many architectural layers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Belgrade is a city of rich history, culture and architecture. Every war in its history left behind ruins that always inspired new waves of construction and urban renewal. Every new building, street and monument testifies to the indestructible spirit of Belgrade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Belgrade has diverse topography, with plains along the banks of the Sava and Danube rivers and hills and elevations south of these rivers in the \u0160umadija region. The total length of Belgrade\u2019s riverbanks is approximately 200 km. Within this area there are 16 river islands, the most famous being Ada Ciganlija (today a peninsula), Great War Island and Gro\u010danska Ada.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to the 2022 census, Belgrade has around 1,685,563 inhabitants in the wider urban area, making it the largest city in Serbia and one of the larger cities in southeastern Europe. Belgrade is a dynamic city with a continuous influx of residents from other parts of Serbia and the region, contributing to its multicultural character.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Belgrade is the main educational center of Serbia, with numerous universities, schools and research institutes. It is also the key political, economic and cultural center, with developed manufacturing and IT industries, trade and services. Due to its educational, economic, cultural, historical and many other advantages, Belgrade is attractive to new residents.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Belgrade is a city of rich cultural heritage with around 40 museums preserving valuable collections and documenting the artistic, cultural-historical, technical and natural-historical development of the city and Serbia. Belgrade\u2019s museums, with their thematic exhibitions, rich collections and large number of representative artifacts, attract visitors of different ages and educational backgrounds, including both Belgrade residents and tourists wishing to become acquainted with the culture of the Serbian people during their visit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Through their collections, museums in Belgrade preserve cultural and scientific treasures that testify to how the city was created, the times in which it developed and the circumstances of its growth, providing visitors with insight into various historical and developmental periods of the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Belgrade is a highly urbanized city with diverse urban structures of different character. The central parts of the city, oriented toward the right banks of the Sava and Danube rivers, are densely populated and highly urbanized, while the middle and peripheral areas offer more open space and greenery within organized residential neighborhoods.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Belgrade, situated on two major rivers, has still not fully utilized its riverbanks. The first urbanized public spaces and landscaped promenades along the rivers were developed in New Belgrade and partly in the central zone. Therefore, new projects aim to maximize the potential of the rivers. The city\u2019s continuous expansion toward the riverbanks and the connection of publicly accessible spaces are planned, allowing Belgrade to finally realize its full potential as a city oriented toward its rivers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In recent decades, Belgrade has undergone dynamic development, particularly in the field of construction. Many parts of the city have experienced complete transformation through the construction of modern complexes that have significantly altered the traditional appearance of the city. Among the most significant projects is \u201cBelgrade Waterfront,\u201d an ambitious urban and construction development project along the banks of the Sava River. This project not only changes the visual identity of the city but also influences its economic and social development.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project began in 2014 with the aim of improving the urban riverfront landscape through the revitalization of the neglected Savamala area in central Belgrade into a modern, multifunctional urban center.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project includes the construction of luxury residential and commercial buildings, hotels, shopping centers, educational institutions, cultural facilities, recreational zones and green areas within the Sava Amphitheater area, between the Belgrade Fair and Branko\u2019s Bridge.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1237546761\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-78689357\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\" style=\"background-color:rgb(238, 236, 232);\" >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_22875353\">\n\t\t<a class=\"image-lightbox lightbox-gallery\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.savskitrg-konkurs.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Savski_Trg_Konkurs-2026-000000007.webp\">\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"571\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.savskitrg-konkurs.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Savski_Trg_Konkurs-2026-000000007.webp\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\n<style>\n#image_22875353 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u201cBelgrade Waterfront\u201d Project<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-78689357 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-348076676\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\" style=\"background-color:rgb(238, 236, 232);\" >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_391713629\">\n\t\t<a class=\"image-lightbox lightbox-gallery\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.savskitrg-konkurs.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Savski_Trg_Konkurs-2026-000000008.webp\">\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"612\" height=\"429\" src=\"https:\/\/www.savskitrg-konkurs.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Savski_Trg_Konkurs-2026-000000008.webp\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.savskitrg-konkurs.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Savski_Trg_Konkurs-2026-000000008.webp 612w, https:\/\/www.savskitrg-konkurs.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Savski_Trg_Konkurs-2026-000000008-571x400.webp 571w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\n<style>\n#image_391713629 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u201cBelgrade Waterfront\u201d Project<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-348076676 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-60862475\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1064086801\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a name=\"_Toc221089590\"><\/a>COMPETITION SITE \u2013 CURRENT CONDITION<\/h3>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-865457037\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1529855612\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The competition site is located in the central zone of Belgrade, on the right bank of the Sava River within the Sava Amphitheater.
