The old tow of Dubrovnik, the historic city center, is awash with tourists. The entire walled city is given over to the spending masses, with a handful of actual citizens still living in the shelter of the awe-inspiring walls. This city withstood a 15 month siege once. And then another siege. And another. And the Yugoslavic bombing and siege of ’91-’92. Standing on the top of the walls, staring down at the sea far below, it isn’t hard to imagine.
There are people everywhere. There are shiny stones on all the streets.
The wine is really cheap here.
