Dubrovnik Croatia
|
Come to
know the miraculous Dubrovnik Croatia - the medieval town-pearl of South Dalmatia,
listed as such in the UNESCO registry of world monumental heritage. This
is a town of a long-standing tourist tradition, ready to meet the most
sophisticated requests of its visitors.
The town of museums and festivals, the town of taverns and restaurants, the place of a mild Mediterranean climate and wonderful landscapes confirms the famous saying of the Irish writer Bernard Shaw: "Those who look for a paradise on earth should come to this town." Isn’t it a sufficient reason for you to set out for Ragusa and verify this statement?

Even after being devastated by Serb shells in the 1991-92 siege, today’s Dubrovnik is remarkably whole and perfect. In fact, a shade of red is one of the few telltale reminders of those violent days: New terra-cotta roof tiles on buildings blasted in the war are a little brighter and a little more orange than older roof tiles that escaped Serb mortars. Hard as they tried, the city fathers were unable to find enough tiles to match the old tiles when doing repairs after the Serb attacks, and they had to settle for the new ones. You might find a tiny bullet scar if you are looking for such reminders, but by and large the "Pearl of the Adriatic" is as glistening as it was 5 centuries ago when Dubrovnik was a major sea power bustling with prosperous merchants and aristocrats, and dripping with Renaissance splendor.

It would take an
army of Hollywood special-effects experts to design a set as perfect and
pure as Dubrovnik, and a team of creative stagehands to build it. Yet
this "city made of stone and light" is as strong and magnificent as the
sparkling sunsets that ricochet off its 14th-century walls. It is as
ethereal as the foam on the azure waves caressing the land beneath them.
In short: This UNESCO World Heritage city is a stunner.
