New Belgrade was built from scratch on the left bank of the Sava. Youth brigades began work in 1948, and in the first three years some 200,000 high-school pupils, students, workers and engineers from across Yugoslavia took part; the municipality was formed in 1953.1 It was planned in blocks, 72 of them today, and the numbering skips: there are blocks 26 and 28 but no 27.2
Cafés follow the blocks rather than any old center. The long boulevards, Jurija Gagarina above all, then Bulevar Zorana Đinđića and Omladinskih brigada, are lined with kafići at the foot of the housing slabs. South of the Sava, the area also takes in the beach cafés of Ada Ciganlija and Požeška street.
Local tip: On a summer weekend Ada can draw up to 300,000 people, so go early: Ritual Cafe opens at 07:00.4
