About Serbia
An excellent jump off point for experiencing the Balkans, Serbia is one of the former republics that comprised what was known as Yugoslavia.
Like its neighbors, the country has a complicated history but today, Serbia continues to evolve and thrive into an attractive destination for those wishing to discover Southeastern and Central Europe. Serbians are quite welcoming and although English
is something only young people speak, they are quick to help foreigners and practice the language.
Skiing is a very popular activity with numerous mountain resorts throughout the country and the summer sees many flock to the capital city Belgrade, where they can be found drinking coffee at the many outdoor cafes.
Primarily Orthodox Christian, Serbs make up the majority of the population with some influences from nearby countries. With reliable train and bus networks, a visit to Serbia can easily be combined with visits to places like Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina
and even Kosovo.
