Kotor Old City

Reviewed By Basia_Poznan - Poznan, Poland

Kotor is said to be one of very few survived Medieval towns untouched by wars. It is squezed between the sea and the mountain and is all contained within the town walls streaching up the steep hill. It looks like the Great Chinese Wall with a town inside and belongs to UNESCO heritage list. This Old Town contains everything history lover can imagine: old houses, narrow streets, small squares, and yards, catholic and orthodox churches dating back to 9th and 11th centuries, lapidarium, town hall clock etc. And something one can't escape in such places: souvenir shops, cafes, restaurants and craft shops, but also hostels, travel offices and museums and art exhibitions. But what is most exciting: you can climb along the city walls up to the castle on the top! The really unforgettable experience! I'd advice to take decent shoes as the steps are slippery and the route is quite exhausting. But the feeling and the view to the Kotor Bay - exceptional!!!

Lovely view and a cafe or two overlooking the bay, and the main square with ATM's available in Kotor, with streets leading in (northeast) to all the quaint streets with cute bakeries, pizza places, shops and ancient inns.
