dcro 10,179 Posted April 10, 2020 Author #1047 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Behind the Checkers: Dubrovnik Is there a better place to start our journey than the iconic city of Dubrovnik? Situated on the Adriatic Coast in the southernmost part of the country, Dubrovnik is a true gem of the Adriatic. Thanks to its maritime trade and skilled diplomacy, Dubrovnik reached high level of development during the 15th and 16th centuries. While its influence eventually started to fade, largely thanks to disasterous earthquake of 1667, Dubrovnik to this day remains to be one of the cultural hotspots of Croatia. Dubrovnik is particularly known for its rich literature tradition. Many Croatian authors came out of Dubrovnik. Some of the most notable ones are Šiško Menčetić, Marin Držić and Ivan Gundulić. Dubrovnik's most recognizible feature is its old town, which has been listed as UNESCO heritage site since 1979. While in the old town, you should definitely pay a visit to the main street - Stradun. Historical city walls and fortresses are not to be missed either. Pictured below is the Minčeta Fortress. Towering over Dubrovnik, you can find the hill of Srđ (415 m). It is just a cable car-ride away from the old town! Dubrovnik has been used as a set location for several films and TV series, including Star Wars.
