Kotor
A UNESCO Heritage site, Surrounded by mountains and tucked away at the end of this Fjord, known as the Bay of Kotor, sits the stunning medieval town. With several Romanesque churches, A Marina, Port, Old Town and modern town, this is a very popular destination for tourists from all over the world. we loved it here. It is famous for it's nautical traditions, which today bring in luxury yachts and cruise ships. To climb the medieval stone walls is not for the faint hearted though though as they are very steep!
