      As a PLANEUR i want recomend u to visit part of the city called DORĆOL- DOR-TJ-OL(just match letter D-Denmarka O-Oxygen R-Republicans T+J-Joki-TJ(Ć)).
      Full of old untouched, uncolored buildings, mostly ownership of old aristocratic Belgrade families and rich merchants from 18. 19. and begining of 20. cent..
      Belgrade was bombarded 192 times in it history, the most bombarded city in Europe. So, not so many super old buildings left. But, Dorćol has the most of that what is left.
      Actually, 3 central Belgrade municipalities:
      Stari Grad(Old Town. Dorćol belongs to Old Town)
      Vračar(something like SHAMAN,in translation to English. But also can be a MEDICAL-DOCTOR)
      Savski Venac(is complicated to translate with two words. Literal translation is: The wreath around the Sava river).
      Belgrade is the oldest city in Europe, older then Plovdiv in Bulgaria. The most people thinks Plovdiv is the oldest city in Europe.
      No. Belgrade is oldest city in Europe, 8000 years. Plovdiv 6000 years. Latest archeological investigations prowed that.
      Also, oldest civilisation in Europe was fiounded near Belgrade, city district called VINČA(VIN-C+H-A).

    Nothing is accidental, and yet there is freedom, right?! Beauty is always in the eye and heart of the beholder. Any conclusion about what we call "coincidence" is subjective.
    You have artistic talent, and free gifts need to be worked on! We should accept, with gratitude, everything that meets us on the path of our life. Because at the end of the road we meet ourselves. (In the Serbian language, the words - meeting and happiness - are very similar because they come from the same root.)
    You two are companions of Beauty. I wish you all the best, dear children. Greetings from an old man!

    This video offers an intriguing dive into the concept of the flâneur, a figure rooted in French literature that represents a person exploring cities with a curious and contemplative mindset, seeking to capture the essence of urban life.

    Never heard of the word flaneur before. I guess we always do this sometimes - who doesn't get lost in Rome, right, but I still think you need to see the main sites and plan your trip, because you may miss some important things. Also, in cities that are dangerous, which Belgrade isn't, but some places on the planet are, wandering aimlessly may get you in trouble if you go to the wrong part. I am not sure why people make a science out of traveling. Someone is a fast traveling tourist who wants to see as many things as possible. Others are slow travelers who stay a month at one place. And now we have flaneurs. Wandering aimlessly like flies, not even knowing what they are seeing, the stories and the history of the place... Just go wherever you please and don't make a rocket science out of it. To each his own.

    • @flaneurlife
      @flaneurlife  2 месяца назад

      True, there are many ways to travel and what's ideal for one might not be for another.
      It's completely subjective.
      Flaneurs can be fast travelers, or slow travelers, or anything in between. It's more of a practice that we can take anywhere we go, a larger concept that some find has applications for their life.
      It's certainly not something to do in dangerous places, and some research is required.
      It's more of a mindset than a hard rule in that way.
      We need to be "secretly attuned" to where we're headed.

      I love that you're sharing these recommended areas of the city. I spent so much time wandering around many parts of the city, I could walk all day there.
      Fascinating stats that I wasn't aware of either.
      I can't wait to go back again and spend more time there.

    You keep talking about freedom as if someone is forcing tourists to do anything. Even if you are a regular tourist who wants to see as many sites as possible, you still pick the sites and landmarks that you want to see, nobody forces you, so you have the freedom to decide what you want and skip other sites. You also have the freedom to eat where you want, or take a leisure day and wander around like you did... so I don't see the big deal of your concept vs. the other. Everyone should just do what they want without thinking how the concept is called, which one is right and which one is wrong. We are all sometimes tourists and sometimes flaneurs. It doesn't have to be strictly one or the other.

    • @flaneurlife

      Yes, I could have done a better job at explaining Nassim Taleb's concept of the flaneur vs the tourist, which is exaggerated to illustrate a point.
      We are all sometimes both at times.
