The Emigrant Statue
Beautiful statue!!!!It really moves all of us sailors,because it represents our life,even though it's dedicated to immigrants,it also represents that most difficult moment in a sailor's life when you have to leave everything and everybody behind,and go into unknown, trying to provide for your family!!We stood there for some time,both me and my wife,just looking at it,and thinking about our life and were it got us so far...
The Emigrant, is installed on Halifax Seaport district a short distance from Pier 21, where thousands of people first landed in Canada from foreign countries seeking a better life.
The monument depicts a man wearing a suit and fedora hat leaving his home country with a single piece of luggage as he steps off a pier onto the deck of a ship. A bas relief sculpture in the back of the monument has a vignette of a woman carrying a baby and holding the hand of a small child who is waving goodbye. A bell tower in the background is indicative of the old country.
A bronze plaque in front of the monument is inscribed in English, French and Italian:
THE EMIGRANT
The pain of separation he overcame,
with faith and hope his heart aflame...
La souffrance de la separation il a surmontée,
le coeur brûlant de foi d' espérance...
Vinse il dolor della lontananza,
spinto dalla fede e dalla speranza...

Beo Shopping Center
Beautiful new shopping mall!!!A huge amount of shops and clothing brands to choose from!!!Also has the biggest selection of electronics stores out of all shoping malls in the city...A nice big food court where you can enjoy world famous KFC,or MacDonald's,Asian,Italian,and of course some traditional Serbian food,like the best ćevapi in town served in Walter restaurant-grill.The location(Konjarnik),is great because it's very well connected with all the parts of Belgrade,and you can get there fast,and get out of there even faster,wherever you are coming from.It has a huge garage,and there is always free space,no matter how crowded the mall is.
