The Danube promenade & the town’s river face

ABOUT THIS ATTRACTION

Smederevo’s river face is its nicest surprise: below the fortress walls runs a Danube promenade of gravel beaches, a marina of fishing boats and river cruisers, and the long quay where the town walks at dusk. The fortress from the water side — walls running straight into the current — is the view Serbia paints on its banknotes; at sunset the whole triangle glows. Swim at the city beach, eat fish on the quay, and watch the wall-up river traffic grind past the last Serbian capital.
