Declared as an UNESCO World Heritage Site, Dubrovnik is a stone city surrounded by medieval walls that is definitely worth a visit.
Located at the foot of the mountains, the medieval town of Dubrovnik is probably the most known destination in Croatia. The atmosphere created by the Baroque planners can still be felt today, with amazing gardens full of colourful bougainvillea and oleanders.
Dubrovnik is worth a visit at any time of year, although spring and summer bring out the best in the city. Be warned though: Dubrovnik’s popularity with cruise liners can lead to big crowds during the day.
Whether you choose to do the circuit of the city walls or stroll around the Old Town, you will find it hard to leave this beautiful city.
