welcome to the moon so this town used to be the most southern part of the austro-hungarian
empire so from here to the south of serbia used to be ottoman empire and from here to the north used
to be austro-hungarian empire so i'm excited to check out this town which is now actually
is part of belgrade but first let's check out this goddess tower right here let's go
all right guardos tower here at zamoon fortress so the wall we were just standing on down below
is remnants from the 13 or 1400s and it's proof that this was a very strategic location
between the austro-hungarian and the ottoman empire this was a fortress you can imagine
the history of wars and battles and military endeavors taking place right here so obviously
very historical but i will say this even if this tower was brand new uh it's still worth
i think the two dollars admission price just for the view right you've got the
beautiful danube and a bunch of beautiful cathedrals as well as the one down below
which has the gold cross sort of standing out against the white and blue sky super beautiful
so certainly worth the two dollars admission now i will say this the word zamun comes from zamunika
which means to dig out so there is this amazing history here in the moon of these 1700 year old
roman tunnels and rooms that have been excavated beneath the city i'm hoping as we go down and look
we can see maybe an entrance or some sort of history of these tunnels and rooms i'm not
sure we can find it but it's really interesting so next stop let's go down and explore the moon
and hopefully find history of these tunnels and excavated awesome let's go super excited let's go
hey
look how cute oh my gosh christmas is in the air and everybody is here taking their
instagram photos yeah christmas is coming you guys i can feel it here it's so cute
anyway no legumes just yet fingers crossed for a 1700 year old tunnel making an appearance in the
video yeah i'm getting hungry now and since we are by the danube delta we have to eat the specialty
here which is fish so we're gonna go to this restaurant which is our fish okay fish for lunch
christmas themed by the way very beautiful restaurants let's do it
table for two don't mind if i do oh my gosh i'm missing home here because all the christmas
fillings so nice santa oh look at this what a restaurant good find your own let's eat
to some plum rakia and i will say the waiter just
pointed to my red star shirt and said number one number one so here's the restart
so here we have it guys this is the freshwater carp yeah soup i want to call it a chore but
is this right i think it is a chore by uh it says chowder which means chorba right very very nice
and i didn't realize the outside of this building is very beautiful it's
an ottoman style building yeah and i guess this restaurant was opened up by
a fisherman in a long long time fishermen become so fancy yeah so let's try this
i would say uh we learned how to make fish churra in romania also by the danube delta
but it was white and this one is more like red like tomato base tomato base yeah so let's try it
definitely tomato but it's very nice
oh the fish is so good it smells in your mouth
i gotta say though i think i like the romanians style better the white shawba but this is still
good tomato bites there you have it guys okay after this we'll finish eating and
hopefully we will find a underground tunnel all right let's eat and let's go
so the name of this restaurant is sauron and it means carp the type of fish so we must get it
it's fried fish right we decided the soup was not enough yeah we actually ordered from the
appetizer menu this one is the main one this one is a main course so this is a big chunk of
sliced and fried carp yeah which i assume was caught uh about a hundred meters from here in the
yeah danube delta very nice that's right oh my gosh
looks good right it looks good look at this
and i think the soup earlier in the shore but might be sturgeon studios
oh awesome okay let's eat and then we'll keep exploring the moon
i'll tell you what guys take it from a non-fish lover a big piece of fried boneless
fish with this garlic oil sauce very good it's very good it's not five stars not fishy
delicious really nice fresh light the garlic sauce is amazing five stars
all right big shout out to that restaurant absolutely
great food no complaints really loved it but now we are on the hunt for some legumes l-a-g-u-m it's
a new word to me but evidently it means tunnels and rooms right in the side of the hill because
1700 years ago there were romans living here and landslides kept happening so the romans would hide
in the mountain or the landslide came down and their tunnels would lead out the other side so
what's incredible is scientists all agree that most of the legumes have not yet been discovered
and they've discovered a lot already but i think there's even more so you can imagine a whole city
underground yvonne and i did see one staircase where we could get up and sort of see along
people's backyards and you can see everyone's garden shed seems like it's cut into the mountain
so it's not exactly a whole city but there are these kind of holes in the mountain now it's
unfortunate that it seems like it's not even a tourist attraction i think because these tunnels
are just tunnels there's nothing in them but i was super excited to see a potentially 1700 year-old
tunnel so according to google maps there are no tunnels it doesn't exist but on some serbian
websites you can find some maps where people have put dots uh and so i translate it to english and
try to find it it's somewhere on the street but we cannot find it so i think our legume hunt is over
but you can imagine um a whole city of network of tunnels and rooms underneath underground it's
pretty cool although we can't find it so these row of houses here are sort of blocking and in their
backyard is the wall of dirt and somewhere in there they are uh tunnels that could be up to 1700
years old there's lots of myths about like uh mythical creatures and ogres and trolls
there's rumors that in world war ii there was a whole ammunition factory underground to hide
it from the enemies would be a cool thing to see but unfortunately we cannot find it yeah so there
you have it this concludes our uh ze moon vlog i was really hoping to see these tunnels but
that's okay it doesn't seem like it's going to happen today the sun is going down as you can see
the sun is going down it's getting cold we had a really nice day really nice food
and uh a great day in zamun and we are in belgrade must come yeah we're like 20 minutes
from downtown belgrade yes still part of belgrade technically so historical and delicious day
uh no legumes although we did learn a new word which is legume or lagum or however
you pronounce it anyway very cool thanks for watching our video guys i think we're about to
get run over by a car so see you guys in the next vlog which might be in brazil actually
see you guys in brazil love you guys bye-bye we'll miss serbia right we'll come back that sounds good
