Tower Gardoš is one of the four Millennium Towers built by the Hungarian authorities on all four sides of the world, in the farthest cities of the kingdom, as part of the celebration of the thousandth anniversary of the settlement of Hungarians in Pannonia. The tower, 36 meters high, was built at the southernmost point of the kingdom, in Zemun, in the city of Belgrade, in 1896, at the elevation of Gardoš, on the foundations of the ancient Zemun fortress Taurunum from the 9th century, which stood as an important defensive point for centuries above the right bank of the Danube.
The Zemun Millennium Tower, from the period of the Hungarian kingdom, except in Hungary, is the only such preserved monument that has remained in the territory of other states.

If your Belgrade friends ask you to meet them in the city centre, more precisely at “the Horse”, then what they mean by that is just that – look for the Horse. But there is a surprise for you there, because there is no stable or stall in the city centre whatsoever. It is just the conspicuous statue of Prince Mihailo Obrenovic riding on horseback. This square is officially called Republic Square and it represents the very heart of the city and also a historical spot where for example many protests and riots have happened among other things.
