Sights

Kotor old town

A tight maze of stone lanes and small squares inside the walls, with churches, palaces and cafés at every turn. Easy to explore without a map, and easy to lose track of time.

Church of St Nicholas

An early 20th-century Orthodox church on one of the old town's main squares, with a richly decorated interior. Dress modestly.
