Lešće

Lešće (Serbian Cyrillic: Лешће) is an urban neighborhood of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia and one of the city's largest cemeteries.

It is situated in the eastern part of the Višnjica Field, along the Slanci Road (Slanački put) as the southern extension of the neighborhood of Višnjička Banja.

To the east, Lešće stretches to the Belgrade's suburban settlement of Slanci and further to Veliko Selo.

A 274 m (899 ft) tall Orlovača Hill separates it from the neighborhoods of Ćalije and Rospi Ćuprija on the east, and Mirijevo on the south.

There is a Church of Saint John the Merciful within the cemetery complex[4] Architect Olga Litričin designed the crematory.
