Dubrovnik is one of the most beautiful cities on the Croatian coast. In the Middle Ages the Republic of Dubrovik was an important rival of Venice. Many buildings in the old city center testify of this glorious past.
The walls of Dubrovnik girdle a perfectly preserved complex of public and private, sacral and secular buildings representing all periods of the citys history, beginning with its founding in the 7th century. Particular mention should be made of the citys main street, Stradun, the Prince's Palace, the church of St Vlaho, the Cathedral, three large monasteries, the Custom's Office and the City Hall. The Republic of Dubrovnik was the centre of a separate political and territorial entity, and was proud of its culture, its achievements in commerce and especially of its freedom, preserved down so many tempestuous centuries.
Today, Dubrovnik is also a very lively city, with many things to do, both at day and night times. The coast nearby offers all sorts of activities and the town has many restaurants, bars and nightclubs.
On the down side Dubrovnik old town is so commercial and tourist ridden that you won't get value for money anywhere. Just look at the harbour when four (yes it has happened) luxury cruise ships all dock together and over 8000 people descend on the old town.
I'm afraid that the time to visit here was years ago and there are better parts of Croatia to visit further North. In addition Slovenia and Montenegro offer the traveller more variety and value. By all means come here for the day and soak up the old town and take the pictures. But unless you are over 70 a week here is a week wasted!
