Our comments

The old city of Dubrovnik has remained basically unchanged since the thirteenth century. Its medieval ramparts encircle the city which pedestrians can enter through one of two gates to find themselves joining the evening promenade where various cafes and restaurants can be found along the way. 

The city is alive with open air markets, artisans’ shops and studios of artists, Baroque churches and Gothic-Renaissance palaces, unexpected courtyards with fluted columns and fountains, and covered loggias in which to sit and watch the world saunter by.

In the summer, music fills the air as the internationally renowned Summer Festival reveals the magic of theatre, music and dance. Dubrovnik is a city where no cars are allowed and the stone-faced houses and orange-tiled roofs have remained unchanged for centuries.
