The highest monument as far as I can see here at Kalemegdan in Belgrade is the Winner's statue. Undoubtedly the winner must have a winning view from up there:
Hence he manages to catch the view from that view point instead of me but I'd be the last to complain to a cute kid like this:
This fortress might be medieval but as you can easily imagine it was also used later for similar reasons hence this bunker:
Which I didn't try cause no matter how long I waited there was too much crowd for my taste down there.
That's the entrance to the local Roman well. In fact, we have only gone back to the Austrohungarian years as this is the era this was built. How come the "Roman"? Even locals wonder.
