Eastern City Gate

Eastern City Gate of Belgrade оr Istočna Kapija Beograda (Serbian: Источна Капија Београда) is a complex of three large residential buildings situated near the E-75 motorway in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, and is among the most prominent structures along the Belgrade skyline. The complex, which is officially named Rudo, was finished in 1976 and is considered one of the symbols of the city, and of the Yugoslav Socialism in general.

Construction of its western complement, the double Western City Gate at the opposite, western end of Belgrade, began first, in 1971, but was finished later, in 1979.
