Croatia
Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik is the ideal for a long weekend. The charming town is nicely based between the beautiful coves. Experience the contrasts between the bare mountains and the blue sea. Stroll around the narrow alleyways, see the old churches, or experience the lovely walk of the city wall.
At the bottom of southern Croatia, we find Dubrovnik, an exciting mix of the new and the old. Terracotta-stained brick roofs, solid stone walls, and white, winding limestone lands become effective against the blue Adriatic Sea. Enjoy a dip in the ocean, buy snorkels, or rent a boat. There is much to do in one of the world’s finest cities!
Discover Dubrovnik by the limestone street Stradun
A fantastic view awaits the two-kilometer ring wall that stretches around the old city. You will also find a small, cozy coffeehouse and drinks if desired. Continue to the famous main street, Stradun, with its beautiful marble floor and lovely shops, and get ready for some shopping. There are plenty of good-quality restaurants available on the side streets. There are also bars, pizzerias, and bakeries.
