Dubrovnik A city for all seasons

    

Dubrovnik is probably one of the most beautiful places in Croatia, if not the whole of Europe. The pearl of the Adriatic, as the port city is also known, attracts visitors with its traditional hospitality and, above all, its enchanting old town.

Embedded in the south-eastern Adriatic coast, between cypress forests and olive groves, the unique medieval city walls of Dubrovnik rise up. The striking walls have been preserved in their original form and are open to visitors as the main attraction. Dubrovnik has been protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Walking through the charming alleyways of the old town, you can feel the harmony between past and present.



Each season in Dubrovnik has its own unmistakable charm. During the winter months, the city has a relaxed atmosphere. The cobbled streets of this historic gem can be explored in a relaxed manner. But even in the cold season, the sun usually shines and snowfall is the exception. In spring and summer, the city on the Adriatic blossoms, with art galleries and cafés inviting visitors to stroll and relax. The Pelješac Bridge, which has connected the southernmost part of Croatia and Dubrovnik with the rest of the Croatian mainland since last year, is a particularly convenient way to get here by car.

When the sun sinks into the Mediterranean, the colorful hustle and bustle of the gastronomic scene awakens. Dubrovnik's delicacies impress with their quality and authentic taste. The taverns serve smoked ham, cheese matured in oil, octopus salad and grilled sardines. In the restaurants, the menu is dominated by delicacies from the Adriatic. Fresh fish and seafood are an integral part of Dalmatian cuisine.



Dubrovnik is served by many international airlines and the airport is only 22 kilometers from the city. The "Pearl of the Adriatic" is also easily accessible by ferry. Both Italian and Croatian ferries connect Dubrovnik with Italian ports.
