Wonderfully well preserved
Located in one of the most beautiful bays of Montenegro, this small fortified town of Kotor is listed on the World Heritage List of UNESCO. It's a gem, it's wonderfully well preserved, and it is still a typically medieval urbanization, with its walls and narrow streets. Kotor has only recently become a fashionable tourist destiantion, and does not yet have too many tourists passing through it's streets, if you compare it to Dubrovnik, Croatia, which is about an hour and a half away from here. Some agencies will arrange some tours leaving Dubrovnik morning and return in the afternoon. Although we went my bus, you can't get there any earlier than midday, therefore we decided to stay then night in a lovely guest house.
Kotor was built between the thirteenth and sixteenth. Many buildings, churches ... are precious historical monuments. The rest of the Montenegrin coast is much more developed, and Kotor remains a bit part, quiet and secluded. You can spend two or three days without getting bored, and the Bay offers beautiful beaches for swimming.
