The
first glimpse of the medieval city of Dubrovnik, surrounded on three sides
by the sparkling waters of the Adriatic, with limestone crags at its back,
remains one of Croatia’s indelible impressions.
To walk within its car free walls, untouched by modernity is to experience true time travel and to discover a host of delights – culinary, cultural and all indelibly memorable.
Its magnificent city walls host an annual Arts Festival where Dame Judi Dench, the Vienna Boys Choir and Montserrat Caballe have all performed in recent years. Strolling down the main pedestrian street Stradun in the evening, impromptu opera recitals and live bands add to the vibrant cultural life of the city. Its galleries, museums, churches and concert halls are host to an astonishingly rich variety of arts.
Beyond the ancient city, lie the islands of Mljet, Lokrum and the Elaphiti Islands. Only a short boat trip away, their dense forests and emerald lakes are ideal for cycling, walking and swimming. The scent of the pine trees framing the lake shores and the summer heat transport the peace seeking sunbather towards sublime relaxation.
