About Dubrovnik
Ringed by mighty walls, Dubrovnik is the pearl of the Adriatic, a medieval city of marble streets and terracotta roofs rising straight from the sea.
A walk around the city walls, nearly two kilometres of towers and bastions, gives unforgettable views over the rooftops and the sea. Inside, the Stradun, the polished limestone main street, runs from the Pile Gate past Onofrio's Fountain, the Franciscan Monastery with its old pharmacy, and the Rector's Palace.
