Day 3- Here come the tough guys…

Novi Beograd

At the other  extremity of Novi Belgrade from the historical centre, Bloks 61, 62, 63 are among the most extreme neighbourhoods of the city.

Long  transversal strips of high rise buildings connect two main bulevars.

Between every strip a 200 mt. canyon of buildings with few or no passages in the middle .

It seems that these bloks are especially inhabited by soldiers and their families.
