About this experience
The green and secluded city of Herceg Novi and its surroundings have long been favored by artists, writers, and simply connoisseurs of magnificent natural views. I will introduce you to the city's history, within which several medieval fortresses are located, show its main architectural highlights, and help you capture the tranquility and charm of this corner of the Boka-Kotor Bay.
What to expect
Fascinating history of the "young" city
Herceg Novi, by the standards of the Adriatic coast, is quite young - it is only 600 years old. But it has a rich history, which I will acquaint you with: who founded Herceg Novi and who owned it over the centuries; why Turkish names often come up here; what relation Admiral Sinyavin has to the city; where the old road passed, which, according to legend, was constructed by the Romans. I will talk about the formation of the first partisan detachments in the Boka-Kotor Bay, the local culture, and the glory of Herceg Novi as a city of creative people.
Beauties of the Herceg Novi Riviera
You will visit an authentic village, admire the greenery and landscapes of the Boka-Kotor Bay from delightful viewpoints, and see numerous medieval fortresses that Herceg Novi is famous for. Forte Mare Fortress and Kanli Kula Castle - two architecturally different monuments, which, like the Savina Monastery, have long been the city's landmarks. You will find yourself in the central square of Herceg Novi, look at the Church of St. Archangel Michael, and learn where Josip Broz Tito's residence was.
