Kotor

In the shadow of majestic green mountains, on the edge of a magnificent bay with turquoise waters, the medieval town of Kotor is the undisputed jewel in the crown of Montenegro. It is a medieval labyrinth of museums, churches, squares and Venetian palaces. It is a place where the past coexists with the present. Behind the strongholds, the streets are filled with bars and live music.

Start your tour of Kotor passing through the historic gates and head to the Old Town. Wandering in its winding stone streets is a pleasure. It is easy to get lost in the maze of its streets. Each cobbled street leads to a small church, a square or a large palace, centuries old. Every corner you turn reveals a look at the history of the city: the Clock Tower, 

the fascinating Naval Museum, the impressive Cathedral of St. Tryphon, the historic churches of St. Luke, St. Nicholas and St. Mary, all built with magnificent squares around them. There are various palaces scattered throughout the Old Town of Kotor waiting to be discovered. The Dragon Palace, with its Gothic windows of the 15th century, the Byzantine Palace of the 12th century, the Pima Palace with Renaissance and Baroque elements of the 16th century, etc.

You should not miss a swim in the crystal clear waters that flood the city. Morinj plaža beach is a beautiful sandy beach, quite small, Bajova Kula plaža, an organized beach nestled in nature and Orahovac plaža, a favorite of the locals.

A few kilometers further, Perast and HercegNovi are also beautiful seaside villages that can be easily reached by car.
