More About Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik, known as The Pearl of the Adriatic, is a popular tourist destination located in southern Croatia on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. This is a beautiful city famed for its Old Town which is encircled by stone walls that date back to the 16th Century. You can buy a ticket for a walk of the majestic walls which will allow you to take in great views across the rooftops and out to the shimmering Adriatic. After a leisurely meal at one of the nearby restaurants, why not walk through the streets of the city and take in the beauty of the baroque buildings and the sculpted Renaissance fountains? Rich in history, there‘s a wealth of other interesting sites to explore such as The Cathedral of the Assumption, Sponza Palace and the State Archives plus the city gate (Pile Gate) which was built in 1537. There's also the Franciscan Monastery; a gothic-style building which houses a magnificent 17th-century library as well as Europe's oldest functioning pharmacy. The town has a good selection of markets, shops, bars and restaurants plus a healthy selection of nightlife opportunities if you like to make the most of your evenings in this beautiful destination. For a different vantage point over Dubrovnik, take the cable car to Srd Hill where there are viewing platforms so you can enjoy breathtaking panoramas over the city and sea. It's a wonderful place to visit later in the day to watch the sunset. Dubrovnik also has a few beaches - the two most famous and popular being Banje beach near Ploce Gate and Copacabana beach on the Lapad peninsula.
