The city of Dubrovnik, which sits steadfast along the shores of the Adriatic, has been charming visitors ever since the thirteenth century. It’s possible to get there by plane or on a cushy cruise ship, but those who really want to see Croatia and all its glory take a car or bus along the five hour route down the curvaceous Dalmatian coastline.

Out the window, the waters of the Adriatic cozily nestle in between chains of lush green barrier islands and a mountain range that crashes down to the shore, expectantly awaiting the aqua-marine tide. The trip passes by an alternating arrangement of quaint villages and poverty-ridden housing projects, giving testament to the country’s checkered economic landscape. Dubrovnik’s famous old city, teetering right up against the water’s edge, is surrounded by towering grey stone walls emerging from the depths of a moat which flows with traffic rather than water. Through multiple entrances penetrating the formidable perimeter into the city, each offering its own brilliantly sculpted archway or narrow stair-studded alley, the town opens up to its visitors.

The main street is paved with smoothly shaped and polished square stones that delicately mimic the exterior walls. The Sidewalk cafes seem filled with people all day long who sit and relax to a gentle serenade of chirps from a swarm of swallows that fly just overhead.
