    In New Belgrade, travelers will explore the unique brutalist architecture and large residential blocks that define the city’s socialist-era urban planning. They will see the famous “blocks” (Blokovi), massive concrete buildings built during the Yugoslav period, designed to reflect functionality, equality, and modernist ideals of the time. Guests will learn how New Belgrade was developed after World War II as a symbol of a new socialist society, and how these structures represented the vision of Yugoslavia’s leadership. The guide will explain the concept behind brutalism, daily life in these neighborhoods, and how this area still plays an important role in the city today. This part of the tour offers a different perspective of Belgrade — less about traditional beauty, and more about history, ideology, and architecture shaped by the communist era.
