CROATIA 

Day 5 Tour

18 Oct 2015

Split – Dubrovnik



Our main itinerary for the day was Dubrovnik which was 230 km and 3 hours drive from Split. The route was particularly scenic along the coast nearer Dubrovnik as the bus drove over hill and rounding the bend where we had stunning view of the Adriatic Sea and the islands nearby.

Dubrovnik is a magnet to tourists with the spectacular views of medieval walled city, cobbled stones narrow lanes with many of the well preserved elegant old buildings. The movie Game of Throes was filmed at Lovrijenac Fortress as well as Star Wars Episode IX was filmed on the main thoroughfare of the Old Town.

Views from the wall

The Walls of Dubrovnik are a series of defensive stone walls surrounding the city, built between 12th to 17th centuries had protected the people living there for centuries. Today it is a UNESCO site. The walls run 1940m uninterrupted and with height up to 75m encircled the old city. Walking on this wall gave us a breath taking panoramic view of the port and the old town.
