Things To Do
Stradun
Stradun is one of the most popular spots in Dubrovnik, both among local residents and the tourists that fly in from around the world every year. Officially known as Placa, Stradun is the main street of Dubrovnik’s Old Town. With its limestone pavements and serene old world charm, the place seems to give visitors a sense of stepping back into the glorious past.Any time of days is a good time to see the sights of Stradun, but the cooler temperatures of the early mornings and early evenings are more conducive to lengthy exploration. Even more examples of fine architecture can be seen throughout the length of the street, with historic monuments and charming buildings emphasizing the most unique aspects of Dubrovnik. Step into any of the many cafés here for a quick bite to eat and a cold, refreshing beverage.
Dubrovnik cable car
Dubrovnik is a picturesque city that offers a wealth of stunning attractions and numerous points of visual interest, and there is no better way to enjoy them all than by via cable car. Built in 1969, the Dubrovnik Cable Car takes visitors on a breathtaking ride up majestic Mount Srjd, covering a distance of 778 meters from the lower station to the upper station in a little over four minutes. Throughout the trip, visitors get to enjoy a fabulous view of the Old City on any one of the two cabins that hold as many as 30 people each. The ride also provides a magnificent view of the gleaming Adriatic Sea and the neighboring islands.
Walls of Dubrovnik
Walking along the top of the walls gives you the opportunity to enjoy a stunning view of the city and the surrounding sea. Make your way north, and you will eventually find yourself at the foot of majestic Tower Minceta, which in itself is a noteworthy structure worth seeing up close. Other equally impressive attractions are the Revelin Fortress, the Fortress Saint-John, and Fort Bokar. Standing just outside the western entrance to the city, Fort Bokar is considered the oldest preserved fort of its kind in Europe.
