SKYWATCH FRIDAY church tower

The tower of Belgrade's main church, located across the street from the patriarch's residence, stands out against a cold winter sky.

Hi Bibi! Glad I found you. You've been in Belgrade for 30 years; you must have seen some rough times then. I'm a fairly recent addition to Belgrade's busttle but I'm loving it. I have a special interest in churches, so I very much enjoyed your last post.
Thank you,
-Arie
