The above is called the Little Pyramid, and it stands in the center of Belgrade's pedestrian street, Knez Mihailova, right in front of the Academy of Arts and Sciences. The pyramid bears an inscription saying that Belgrade’s geographic center is situated at 44 degrees 49 minutes and 14 seconds of the northern geographic latitude and at 20 degrees 27 minutes and 44 seconds of the eastern geographic longitude, at an altitude of 116 meters.So there's your information for today! See how others have interpreted the letter 'I' on ABC WEDNESDAY.

Cool photo! - and thanks for the information (like they say, learn something new every day)
I find that pyramid very interesting, since its top is separated from other part. Looks like the one on a dollar bill, don't you think? :)
Great photo! Thanks for the info.
awesome,
love useful and helpful information!
Love that photo and thanks for the info!
Nice geometric shape for geographic info. I love the traditional street sweeper you've captured too. No blasted noisy blowers to disturb the peaceful morning.
Great photo -- it looks rather Masonic.
Well that's more than I knew before. I love the information that ABC Wednesday gives us. Great shot of the city center.
Very interesting Information today. I like the Little Pyramid, very interesting picture.
Great photo today! Hope you have an incredible week! :D
Interesting! It does look like the pyramid on the dollar bill with the eye at the top. Great shot.
Oh. Congratulations on being a blog of note - your posts are always interesting!!
A great photo, and I will just jot down that information - one never knows when things like this will be useful!
Excellent information, especially in front of the Academy of Arts and Sciences.

absolute location... this is interesting.. I'm taught basic geography last term.. interesting... great I.
So does this make it GPS art?
I am sure this info is relevant to someone .. maybe many many centuries from now it will be unearthed and help who ever found it learn about the place it stood ... scifi anyone?
interesting monument!!
Very informative indeed—and something I never expected to learn!
