Dubrovnik

George Bernard Shaw was enchanted by this beautiful city: for him, it was paradise. The old town was completed in the 13th century and remains virtually unchanged to the present day. Tall ramparts surround it and there are only two entrances to the old town which lead to the Stradun, the city's promenade. One of the greatest pleasures is to have a drink in one of the nearby cafes but the greatest find was a little place for drinks a hole cut into the huge wall called Buzia 1 (meaning hole in the wall). This is probably one of the most beautiful places in the world perched up high where you can sip champagne and watch the path of scuba divers and kayakers as well as kids jumping off the cliffs to the water below. Heaven.
