Visitors to the Croatian city of Dubrovnik on the Adriatic are struck by the magnificence of the stone walls that surround its Old Town, the beauty of the red-tiled roofs against the blue sea, and the stunning view of the entire city from the summit of nearby Mt. Srd. Even if you know little of its medieval background or its more recent wartime tragedies, Dubrovnik is a jewel to the eye from any angle.
Posjetitelji hrvatskog grada Dubrovnika na Jadranu zadivljeni su veličanstvenošću kamenih zidova koji okružuju njegov Stari grad, ljepotom crvenih krovova nad plavim morem i zadivljujućim pogledom na cijeli grad sa vrha u blizini brda Srđ. Čak i ako znate malo o srednjovjekovnoj pozadini ili njegovim novijim ratnim tragedijama, Dubrovnik je dragulj za oko iz bilo kojeg ugla.
