kotor old city印象

Kotor is a nice, historic little town on the bay of the same name. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is surrounded by sturdy stone walls. The town was built to a deliberately confusing plan, in order to make it harder for any Ottoman invaders to find their way around. That said, if you keep walking it's not that hard to get about, sooner or later you get back to the big main square, even if you do have to go in circles a few times. It has many churches and interesting old buildings that you can see. Taking a guided tour or a decent guidebook will help you appreciate them. It's framed by lovely big mountains, so on a clear day you can enjoy the view of the spires against the mountains. If you have time and a reasonable level of fitness, you can climb up the walls behind the town and into the mountains for more good views (there is a charge). There are plenty of souvenir shops, restaurants and ice cream sellers etc. It does get very busy here, and the cruise ships that arrive are often bigger than the entire town, dominating the tiny port outside the walls. If you stay here or are able to visit early or late in the day you'll have a nicer experience. It's attractive and a nice place to visit nonetheless and the Bay of Kotor is worth a trip in its own right.

In the early 11th century Kotor was already a very old settlement built in a moutainous area of what was Yugoslavia, now Montenegro. The Venetians were largely responsible for the development of the city and ruled for many centuries in perfct harmony with local people . Beautiful churches were built which can still be visited today. Some of which were built into the fabric of a wall that surrounds the city.The wall defies belief as it meanders through rocky crags many hundreds of feet above the city. Just as the Venetian mariners did 1000 years ago, ships from around the world still tie up at the dock bringing trade to the thriving city. As one nears the city by road a massive lake is circumnavigated, in the middle of which is an ancient church with a blue dome that is still regularly used by the local people. Kotor is unigue and should not be missed by travellers. Bon voyage. Jim Harper.

Well not really but if you can go there when the cruise ships aren't in as we did then it is a ittle bit of heaven. The weather was perfect, most of the cobbled streets were deserted, the cafes had plenty of seating outside and were quick to serve you but allowed you to linger. The Food is very reasonably priced, 2 coffees and a piece of cake each costs less than €10. Yes Montenegro uses Euro's makes everything much simpler, unlike Croatia which still uses the Kuna. Lots of photo opportunities. Go there and enjoy, and then travel onto Budva for a beer beside the Harbour and have a walk through the old town.

We've been all over the world, and seen some amazing sights ... after a trip from Dubrovnik to Kotor and back (all in one day), I can say that Kotor is my new favorite place! Old Town Kotor is as interesting as all medieval cities within walls are - enjoyable, certainly, but after having seen half a dozen there's not a ton of variability. What made this so special was the drive around the Bay, through six or eight small pristine villages, all of which are right on the turquoise water and ringed by snow-capped mountains ... and the climb up the wall around Old Town Kotor to the fort at the top. UNBELIEVABLE!! Views are out of a postcard. Yes it's strenuous - something like 2000 steps to the top, and it took my wife and I about an hour to go up (and we're neither marathoners nor couch potatoes, just in average shape). WORTH EVERY STEP! We were both sore the next day but we'll always have the memories and pictures of this incredible, awe-inspiring, amazing place. Don't go to Kotor without doing the wall to the top of the mountain - you won't regret it!

Being and working as civil engineer in one enterprise in Belgrade, I went in summer 2009 to Republic of Montenegro, regarding one design, that should have been done on the matter of the sewerage of the Kotor City. That is a coastal town in MonteNegro and is located at the end of the long and curved bay of Kotor (Boka Kotorska). As a matter of fact, this town appears to be some repulse region or part of the whole inland around the water body of the Bay. But this last feature doesn't make any smaller, the importance, that Kotor has had through the centuries of its history. Not only like administrative center of Kotor Municipality, but also as the cultural point of the surrounding region Boka in the past and nowadays. Beside it was a strong fortificated town, dating from the Venetian period.Even now remained grand fortress like some castle. that witnesses about the defending role of the place. The old town is very picturesque, with plenty of little cafes, scattered on the cobbled streets, that climb upward to the mighty cliffs which stand as some precipitated vertical walls.There are a lot of things You should see when in Kotor, since after all, it is a World Heritage Site and natural beauty of the Bay is beyond any question.

I have a holiday with my boyfriend in Montenegro. We stopped at the Kotor View suites. The town itself is beautiful to, I would say historic. If you are ever in Montenegro will be sure to visit this city.And the most intresting thing that i had known that cats are saints animals and in a big respect in this city

The full (small) city of Kotor is a great place to go for vacation. The Old City was my first step during my vacation and we absolutely enjoyed the small village inside the wall and the ruins/memories of the past. I do suggest to plan a 3 day stay in this beautiful area that is a very pleasant fiord and has an enchanting landscape.Also beautiful churches and beaches to visit at short distance.Competitive store and restaurant prices; do negotiate with taxi drivers. Only limitation is limited people speaking (poor) english.

We stayed on the edge of Kotor over the summer and what an enchanting place it is. The walled old town is full of atmosphere, cobbled streets and lovely shops and cafes. You can walk along the walls, window shop, admire the boats in the harbour, or simply sit and watch the world go by. Venturing further afield, you can drive up into the hills, which offer some absolutely stunning vistas across the fjord and are definitely worth the effort.

We took a day trip to Montenegro from Dubrovnik. The views of the mountain from the old city are amazing. We walked around the city and took pictures from Tower 1 which is FREE. Would have loved to have done the tour of the walls as it goes up in the mountain. Views from the city was amazing. Would recommend to all.

I wish more people would know about these gems! Its a really old italianesque city that we've visited and had a great time in. It has a huge castle-like fortress and a whole old town within it.
