Dubrovnik : Discover
Croatia's most beautiful historic city! Sheltered by mighty forts and thick ramparts protecting palaces, churches and monasteries, Dubrovnik was an independent republic for centuries. Then, the former Ragusa became the perfect setting for King's Landing in the Game of Thrones series. Despite its sometimes problematic tourist overcrowding, the historic city has retained its prestige. In summer, its theater and music festival remains one of the country's most important cultural events. The "Pearl of the Adriatic" is also a vacation destination, with its beaches, sports and water sports in turquoise waters. The region promises a wealth of discoveries, other beautiful cities to visit (Cavtat, Korčula) and superb archipelagos. You can follow the rivieras, hike in the hinterland, build agro-tourism trails (Konavle plain or Pelješac, where the best Croatian wines are produced).
