Where to stay in Chinatown
Where visitors usually base themselves, and why.
Chinatown sits inside Novi Beograd, across the water from central Belgrade. Rooms here run practical. Base yourself near Hala sportova and the arena's event nights, the wide boulevards, and the tram lines put both the district's stalls and the older core within easy reach, while an address closer to the Hram Sv Simeona Mirotočivog trades the bustle for the calm streets of the surrounding blocks.

About Chinatown
What are the main landmarks in Chinatown?
Chinatown pairs a trading quarter with the landmarks of its Novi Beograd surroundings. Hala sportova stands close by. Chinatown's own Church of St. Basil of Ostrog lends the quarter one of its spires.
Basil of Ostrog and the Hram Sv Simeona Mirotočivog give the blocks their spires, while the Црква Светог апостола Томе and the modern courts of the Vizura Sports Center round out the wider New Belgrade setting that frames the market. Faith and sport share the skyline here.
What is the history of Chinatown?
Chinatown grew out of the planned expansion of Novi Beograd, laid across the flats west of old Belgrade. The blocks came first. As the new municipality filled with apartment towers and civic halls like Hala sportova, a trading quarter took shape among them and drew the traders who gave the district its name.
Later years brought churches to the grid, among them the Church of St. Basil of Ostrog and the Црква Светог апостола Томе, marking the maturing of what had begun as bare building plots.
Where is Chinatown?
Chinatown lies within Novi Beograd, on the west-bank flats across from central Belgrade, close to Hala sportova and the surrounding residential blocks.
