Kalemegdan Park, Public park at the confluence of Sava and Danube rivers, Belgrade, Serbia

The 53-hectare park contains 3,424 trees from 80 different species, spreading across the Great and Little sections at 125 meters above the rivers.

The area served as an Ottoman military training ground before its transformation into a park in 1869 under the direction of urbanist Emilijan Josimović.

The park houses multiple museums, including the Military Museum, Natural History Museum, and the Cvijeta Zuzorić Art Pavilion for exhibitions.

Visitors can explore the Belgrade Zoo in Little Kalemegdan, walk through tree-lined paths, and access viewing points overlooking both river confluences.

The name derives from Turkish words 'kale' for fortress and 'meydan' for square, reflecting the location's military past at this strategic river junction.
