  Kotor is a great place considering how the people build the old walls and so on. This gate is part of that surrounding walls and is is very good condition.

  One of three original gates to gain access to the city, with the other two being the Sea Gate (main), and Gurdic Gate (south) being the oldest. The main gate is the town entrance, and this gate being the opposite or north end of town.

  Be sure to check out all of the Gates to the Old City. This one was our favorite. During our visit we asked a local where to eat and they sent us to "Fortuna" a small eatery a few minutes walk from the Old City and across from the Mall. We felt like natives eating at this popular inexpensive restaurant away from the tourist crowd. Ask anyone for directions they all seemed to know it.

  We deliberately avoided the Sea Gate and walked around the side of the walls to the north and around the more modern car park to access the Northern Gate as our point of entry. This allows you some great sights of the walls and the rivers running down this northern edge. You may miss this beautiful side of the old town if you enter and exit the walls through the Sea Gate and that would be a travesty. The water running down the edge is crystal clear and with the sun shining the moss is a delightful colour green. It leads straight into the built up compact Old Town and offers the chance here also to climb up onto the walls. It was great entering and immediately being channelled through the small tight walkways and we wound our way through this beautiful town. The Northern gate is a must as it offers something different to the Sea Gate. It was also fairly quiet, and we were off a cruise, so it allowed you a bit of peace as you explore. The views up the side of the mountain above are also excellent. Try entering this way. We still headed through the town and left via the Sea Gate so didn't miss much. Just wish we hadn't stopped so much as being on limited time we would have loved to have spent more time just wandering around Kotor.

  Este acesso a Kotor, com longa pontezinha de pedestres exterior e as muralhas em si, muito utilizado para os que chegam a cidade por carro particular, já vai anunciando que se vai adentrar a uma pérola do turismo na Europa. No lado interior a cidade sonho começa a se revelar com fonte, com a igreja de Sta Maria e o principal acesso as muralhas.

  Absolutely essential to enter through the main gate.....and leave the same way I thought. Enter in the busy throng of tourists and head the way there is the least foot traffic and head back out to Kotor the same way you are faced with the port and enormous cruise ships.....it just seems wrong!

  This was the gate closest to my guest house in Old Town and gave one the sense of entering a true fortified town more than the main gate off the main road. Unfortunately, the smell of sewage coming off the river flowing under the entrance was a disappointment.

  The Old Town of Kotor has several entrances into the city - the main gate opens up to the port. The Northern gate is at the side. It's one of the nicer entrances surrounded by water and huge stone towers. It's lovely and a great picture opportunity. The only not so nice thing is that the water below sometimes has a bad smell, and one can see things thrown about - it's a shame really.

  We trusted our photographer, we gave him the destiny and the history of our wedding day. He is a local guy, brought us here, where the picturesque rocks looking up to the sky, beautiful and chrystal clean water.We were happy on that bridge and some tourists made pictures of us.Moreover this bridge can help you to reach the big parking place where for example Villa Duomo hotel has its private parking.From that bridge you can enter the city and see the cats square near the church) If you are in Kotor take a few minutes to walk there))Pictures soon)

  This is the prettiest entry into Kotor old Town, its little bridge over the moat has the most wonderful views of the town fortresses which can be climbed (if you are up to it).
