Somehow there, in perfect symbioses coexist ancient fortress, old stone buildings, gorgeous churches and squares together with modern pubs, restaurants, hotels and tourist attractions, wearing the spirit of the old town.
Entering the main gate, feels like teleporting in another time and dimension. Walking through the narrow streets, leading to wide squares with gorgeous churches, brings the feeling of the time when Kotor was part of the Venetian republic.
Visiting Kotor is really a must!
