Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 520 reviews
Exactly 461 stairs lead to Jezerski Vrh, which is located at an altitude of 1660 m above sea level, where the Mausoleum dedicated to Petar II Petrovic Njegos was opened in 1974, making it the mausoleum at the highest altitude in the world at the time. The location of today's Mausoleum housed a humble chapel which Njegos constructed in 1845 to be his eternal resting place.

The mausoleum is about a 1 1/2 hours drive up from Kotor. A road full of hairpin bends and sharp drops for about 45 mins - 1 hour before it levels off more in the national park. It is well worth the drive though because of the absolutely spectacular view at the top. It truly is like being on top of the world! At the mausoleum there is a little gift area and a nice restaurant with lovely views too. On a really clear day I'm told you can see as far as Lake Skadar. Stunning! Don't miss it!

Kotor’s city walls are formidable and provide excellent examples of fortress structures. They remind me of the Great Wall of China as they uniquely wind their way up the mountain behind Kotor’s Old Town to the Church of Our Lady of Health and beyond, offering an excellent view of Kotor and beyond.

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!!!

10. Old Fortress, Stari Bar

Enclosed within medieval city walls, Fortress Bar contains ruins that date to the 11th century and earlier, including ruins of the Roman Empire city Antivarium. The Old Fortress is, essentially, an open air museum and you are free to walk around and explore. If you have any interest in antiquity and ancient history, the Old Fortress is nothing short of amazing. At 2 Euro for an adult, it is an amazing value.
