2. When we think of Kotor, we often think of its neighboring settlement, Perast. Over the centuries, Perast stood as the first line of defense against enemies. Despite the dramatic conflicts between the Ottoman Empire and Venice, which were particularly fierce in this region, the town continued to flourish culturally and architecturally. The construction of luxurious palaces, chapels, and churches, along with the importation of works of art and a vibrant literary scene, are evidence of an intense industry that surpassed the town's size and population.

3. Our Lady of the Rocks is an artificial island created in the 15th century as a monument to the sailors from Perast. Beneath Our Lady of the Rocks lie 196 shipwrecks, a testament to the bravery of Perast sailors who defended Kotor against the Ottoman and Venetian empires.

Enclosed by Venetian walls, the old town showcases ancient churches and medieval buildings. However, Budva has transformed into the capital of Montenegrin tourism today, becoming the most visited town on the Montenegrin coast throughout the summer. Its harmonious blend of ancient stories with luxurious yachts, restaurants, bars, sandy beaches, and vibrant nightlife makes Budva a unique and popular destination.

About Kotor

Kotor is a walled medieval town at the head of a winding bay in Montenegro, with mountain walls, Venetian palaces and a fortress high above.

Kotor lies at the end of the Bay of Kotor, a deep, winding inlet often described as a fjord, though it is really a drowned river canyon, with steep mountains rising directly from the water. The old town, a UNESCO site, is enclosed by Venetian-era walls and entered by the Sea Gate, and inside are small squares, a clock tower and the Romanesque cathedral of St Tryphon, consecrated in 1166.
