Dubrovnik i Cavtat
Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik, the world known national heritage site of the southern Croatian coast, has left many of its visitors enchanted by a mixture of simplicity, history and culture in its own unique way. Constructed on a cliff, surrounded by ancient walls, still preserved with its original architecture and monuments, the town shines as a pearl and attracts more and more visitors every day. Dubrovnik was originally called Ragusa and was formed in the 7th century when coastal residents took refuge there under the onslaught of barbarian invasions. It has maintained its independence through canny diplomacy and used its wealth to expand its cultural and political influence. Thanks to great maritime power and strong merchant connections, the Ragusa Republic lived in peace and prosperity for nearly five centuries. Today it still fascinates and welcomes every guest who wants to enjoy, relax and experience a part of its rich history.
Cavtat
Most have heard of Dubrovnik, the Crown Jewel of the Adriatic, but to discover Cavtat across the bay is like being told a precious secret. It is hard to say what delights the visitor most: the variety of its Mediterranean vegetation, its picturesque quiet bays, the emerald hue of the eternal sea, the unspoiled beauty of the islands or the region's legend-wrapped past itself.
The town of Cavtat, once the ancient Greek settlement of Epidaurum, today it is a quaint fishing town that mixes restaurants, cafes, and shops for tourists in a comfortable way. This charming coastal town is the largest and only urban settlement which has persisted since Greek times. Cavtat is one of those rare places that offer visitors such a diverse experience, whose rich history can easily be illustrated in the traditional wares of unique Konavle lace and temperamental rhythms of Linđo folklore dance.
Cavtat is here to amaze, welcome and introduce you with the experience of a lifetime!
