Dubrovnik
In theory it should only take you around 20 minutes to circle the city walls of Dubrovnik’s Old Town as it’s only two kilometres. But the sight of terracotta roofed buildings ringed by white stone walls that change to pink in the setting sun, with the Adriatic Sea forming a deep blue backdrop, will repeatedly stop you in your tracks. For a bird’s eye view, take the newly restored cable car to the top of Mt Srd. Down in the town there are fountains, churches and museums to keep you busy, plus it’s the perfect base for day trips to the outlying islands or neighbouring Bosnia, Herzegovina and Montenegro.
