Beautiful town in a stunning location. It often gets overlooked by the crowds more interested in neighboring Dubrovnik, but Kotor is my favorite for sure.Dr BP

The ancient city of Kotor is located at the end of the Kotor Fjord. It is one of the well-preserved medieval old towns on the Adriatic Sea surrounded by the Lovchen Mountains, the Vrmac Mountains National Park and the sea. The atmosphere of the old town is warm and peaceful, with cafes and restaurants everywhere, and the nearby buildings have a medieval feel. The old town is located at the foot of the steep San Giovanni hill with a 16th-century fortress on top of it. The old town is one of the well-preserved urban settlements of the medieval city along the Mediterranean coast. The old city wall, 5 kilometers long, 20 meters high and 10 meters wide, surrounds the ancient city. Museums, churches, a cathedral, palaces, stone streets, squares and elaborately carved steps and gates take you into a fairy tale world. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
