A little bit about Dubrovnik

Hi Everyone!

How are you today? How did you spend your weekend? 

Recently I have promised you a little mention of my favourite Croatian city: Dubrovnik. Ok, here goes!

Since childhood, during my summer holiday, I have been in the habit of traveling with my parents. I must admit that the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic’, Dubrovnik, made on me an incredible  impression.

Firstly, Dubrovnik is situated at the heart of one of the most renowned tourist destination in the Mediterranean Sea: Dalmatia. Each year a bit of people decide to spend their holiday here. Really nice weather, kind inhabitants and partys into the small hours - that's why I point this city as a place so attractive for everyone. 

I recommend you to tour the fortress called Lovrijenak. However, you have to be in reasonably good shape :) There are so many stairs (too many for me...) but the fact is that you have an opportunity to burn off a few calories. Honestly, at the top I got to see absolutely breathtaking scenery: I found myself in entirely different world.

Furthermore, you should visit Sponza Palace. According to HotelClub:

"This historic Gothic Renaissance palace is one of the few buildings that has survived the catastrophic 1667 earthquake and has stayed intact. This is the finest architectural monument of Dubrovnik and is currently used to house the National Activities".

This is the finest architectural monument of Dubrovnik and is currently used to house the National Archives. The entry fee will cost you just 22 Kuna and all that money is more than well spent as you admire the beauty of the Sponza. - See more at: http://www.hotelclub.com/blog/walled-city-of-dubrovnik-pearl-of-the-adriatic/#sthash.OSUEaise.dpuf

Personally, I think that the most interesting part was all that family bonding time. What's more, I love eating traditional Croatian food: my favourite dish is prawns with octopus and I have a strong yearning for Dubrovnik.
