Novi Sad is the second largest city of Serbia. The city is very multicultural; it has five Orthodox churches, a Catholic cathedral, and a Jewish synagogue right at its centre. The wide variety of cultures, religions, and nationalities makes Novi Sad, situated on the banks of the river Danube, a city with a growing cultural importance for Serbia. Novi Sad is also referred to as ‘Serbian Athens’.  Some of the main cultural events take place in the city, with its many universities, museums, galleries, libraries, etc. Novi Sad also has a large train hub connecting the international railroads from Athens, Istanbul, and Budapest.
