At first glance, it may seem that Serbia is not the most good place for shopping. However, it is not. In spite of everything, it is territorially Europe, which means that all the most famous causal brands have their official representations here, and things can be purchased much lower than in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev or Minsk.
Hugo Boss, Burberry and Armani opened their boutiques on Terrazie Street (Ul. Terazije), many different companies work on major tourist routes like Prince Mikhail Streets, and more casual models can be bought in large Mollah, located away from the center, in the New Belgrade area (Novi beograd). Two of them, Delta City (Yuri Gagarin Street, 16) and Ušće (Mikhail Pupina Boulevard, 4), are especially popular both among the local population and among tourists. In addition to the permanent sales, there are often concerts, exhibitions and fashion shows. When buying, pay attention to the inscription Sniženje (discount) and Rasprodaja (Sale).
It is worth paying attention to the leather products, mainly the production of Turkey and are relatively inexpensive. Local footwear, which may still remember representatives of the older generation, also inexpensive and reliable.
Souvenirs in Serbia are a separate story. In the center of Belgrade there is a large number of souvenir shops. In addition to the standard set of ceramics, magnets, books and other trifles, it is necessary to buy local vodka - raki, - and wine, like red (here it is called "black"), and white. Also popular many drinks based on different fruits are fragrant raying or tincture of apricots, pears, apples or quince. Serbian beer also deserves all sorts of praise, and can become a good gift to a friend or colleague.
Handmade souvenir products, including knitted clothing, is sold in Kalembang Park. The traveler will be able to buy everything anything - from homemade jam, called Slyko here, to the pleasant things of the time of Yugoslavia.
From 9 to 12 percent of VAT it is possible to return to Belgrade Airport by contacting the Europe Tax-Free Shopping office. To do this, when you buy some product you need to ask the seller to issue Tax-Free Cheque.
Even if you were in Belgrade on business and did not have time to buy anything as a gift to your friends or friends - nothing terrible, Nikola Tesla Airport is full of souvenir shops, the price here is slightly higher than in the city.
Belgrade is a very cozy and home city. You can bring a lot from here, but do not forget about the restrictions on the wire of alcoholic beverages (you can look for more details on the airline's website, which you fly) and, possibly, some foods).
Good luck! Srechana Put!
