Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik offers an unusual blend of modern culture and established tradition. In Old Town you'll find polished limestone streets, a labyrinth of alleyways and breathtaking architecture. Don't miss the baroque cathedral, a centerpiece of Dubrovnik. It's a highlight of architecture in Croatia. But Dubrovnik's most stunning feature is the 82-foot-tall city wall. It extends more than a mile. There are many options for music lovers in Dubrovnik. Daily concerts take place all year. In July and August the Dubrovnik Summer Festival features music, theatre and dance. Looking for nightlife? The city's clubs and bars will keep you busy until dawn.

Open-air living is the name of the game in Dubrovnik and that includes dining. Grilled dishes and local seafood are specialties of Croatia. Take a short ferry ride from Old Town to experience the nature reserve on the peaceful island of Lokrum. Here you'll also find a monastery and botanical garden. The islands of Elaphiti and Mljet offer the perfect day trip in a more tranquil setting. Dubrovnik is the ideal base to explore the region. You can travel to the surrounding countries to visit Bosnia or Montenegro either as full-day trips or overnight stops. Try kayaking or horse-riding and make your Adriatic vacation active. Dubrovnik is a great place to start a tour of Croatia. Just choose your next stop: Korcula, Hvar, Split or Trogir.
