Welcome to Episode 2 of my Balkan Adventure! 🇲🇪🏔️🌊
After exploring Budva in Episode 1, the journey continues to one of Montenegro's most spectacular destinations — Kotor.
Surrounded by towering mountains and sitting at the edge of the breathtaking Bay of Kotor, this historic city feels like something straight out of a movie.
In this episode, I wander through the narrow stone streets of Kotor Old Town, discover centuries-old architecture, admire the historic churches and squares, and take in the incredible scenery where mountains rise dramatically from the Adriatic Sea.

🏛️ A LITTLE HISTORY OF KOTOR
Kotor has a history spanning more than 2,000 years, shaped by Illyrian, Roman, Byzantine and Venetian influences.
The historic Old Town is surrounded by impressive defensive walls that climb the mountainside behind the city. These fortifications helped protect Kotor for centuries and remain one of its most recognizable landmarks.
Because of its extraordinary cultural and natural setting, the Natural and Culturo-Historical Region of Kotor has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
One of the most fascinating things about Kotor is its location. The city sits at the innermost part of the Bay of Kotor, surrounded by steep limestone mountains. The combination of medieval architecture, mountains and deep blue water makes the landscape unlike almost anywhere else on the Adriatic.
