Description

Places we visit are the main symbols of Kotor Bay, southernmost fjord in Europe which is protected by UNESCO.

As a local, I can say many things about Perast, but it should be enough if I tell you that as we drive there, as soon as visitors see Perast and its islands even from a distance, their cameras are clicking and their minds are blown by its beauties.

The town is very small, but it has over 20 Venetian Baroque palaces all around that give special charm to the town.

"The Pride of Perast" and its main attraction is Our Lady of the Rocks, a man-made islet built on top of the reef. In it's church and treasury culture and history of the area are kept(eg. An embroidery that artist made with her natural hair).

Kotor Old Town adds up to Venetian ambient we felt in Perast and like we use a time machine we are back to medieval times (palaces, cathedrals, piazza's & museum)

To complete the essentials of the puzzle, a photo from scenic Kotor Bay viewpoint will be a perfect memory that will make you come back!
