About Dubrovnik

Omringad av mäktiga murar är Dubrovnik Adriatiska havets pärla, en medeltida stad av marmorgator och terrakottatak som reser sig rakt ur havet.

En promenad runt stadsmurarna, nästan två kilometer av torn och bastioner, ger oförglömliga vyer över taken och havet. Innanför löper Stradun, huvudgatan i polerad kalksten, från Pileporten förbi Onofrios fontän, franciskanerklostret med sitt gamla apotek och Rektorspalatset.
