Miljakovac (Serbian: Миљаковац), (pronounced [mǐʎakɔʋats]) is an urban neighborhood of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia.
The neighborhood is known for the vast green areas, which include parks Miljakovački Izvori and Izvor, and the surrounding Miljakovac Forest.
During the NATO bombing of Serbia in 1999, the area suffered much damage due to the constant bombing of Straževica hill with underground military facilities, which is in several kilometers further to the south, but in the same level as Miljakovac I and without any natural obstacles in between.
With the adjoining park Izvor in Miljakovac II, which is separated by the Velizara Stankovića street, it covers an area of 2.12 hectares (5.2 acres).
The section of the park was revitalized on the initiative of the diplomat Keisuke Oba (1935–2002), Japanese chargé d'affaires in Belgrade from 1995 to 1998.
Stream ends in the pond with the fountain which is surrounded by benches and fitness equipment in the open.
Original relocation was planned for Bežanija on the completely opposite side of the city, but the idea was put on hold due to the major problems with lots' ownership.
Abundance of the underground waters, including the Miljakovac Springs, (Serbian: Миљаковачки извори, romanized: Miljakovački izvori), prevented earlier urbanization.
When Miljakovac II was built in 1973, mayor of Belgrade Branko Pešić decided to change the plans and quit on three projected buildings in order to preserve the springs and their immediate catchment.
The President of Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito also intervened and the water from the spring was conducted to the newly built park Izvor, 150 metres (490 feet) downhill.
After the 2010 administrative change in the boundaries of the local communities, Miljakovac III was attached to the newly formed local community Sunčani Breg, which also includes the neighborhoods of Sunčani Breg and Jelezovac, and had a population of 3,018 in 2011.
