“If You Want to See Heaven on Earth, Come to Dubrovnik” – George Bernard Shaw

If You Want to See Heaven on Earth, Come to Dubrovnik - George Bernard Shaw 1

You have visited Paris, Venice or Santorini and now you are looking for another romantic place where you and your significant other can celebrate your love. Well, look no further! Come to Dubrovnik! George Bernard Shaw was right on target when he compared Dubrovnik to heaven.

Located on the Adriatic Sea, the Dubrovnik Republic entered its golden age in the 16th century, at a time when the power and glory of the Venetian Empire was on the wane. In recent times, when Republic of Croatia declared it’s independence, it resulted in a Serbian aggression on Croatian territory. Dubrovnik was attacked heavily and suffered widespread damage and destruction in October of 1991.

However, the war-devastated cultural heritage of Dubrovnik has been largely repaired and renovated now, making it an attractive tourist destination again.

 

Discover Something New

Many of us have visited Paris, Venice or Santorini and enjoyed the beauty of these wondrous cities and shared the magic these romantic places offer with the man or woman we love. Many of us had a glass of wine at Montmartre, took a gondola ride in Venice or swam in a crystal clear Aegean sea in Santorini. Now it is time for something new.

The city has been magnificently restored to its former glory to emerge as one of the most fashionable vacation spots in all of Europe. However, Dubrovnik is so much more than just a fashionable vacation spot.

Dubrovnik’s growing popularity has not surprised anyone, and this “jewel of the Adriatic,” is often referred to in tourist brochures as astonishingly beautiful and a magnet for dreamy-eyed lovers in search of a romantic getaway. Enchanted by its beauty, many couples wander around the old town, enjoy beautiful beaches outside of town (that are only a short ferry ride away from all the tourist crowds) or simply go to Dubrovnik city beach of Banje with deckchairs and sunloungers enjoying the breathtaking view at the old town.

 

Dubrovnik Clubs

However, Dubrovnik is not only its beautiful old town and nice beaches. This city has so much more to offer. Visit the cool Troubador jazz club where every day crowds flock to this small, intimate club in the heart of the Old town to listen to live music and soak up the atmosphere. You can also enjoy the finest local food and wines and after soaking all the local atmosphere, head to Culture Club Revelin where you can enjoy the mixture of modern summer music rythms and the ambiance of old Dubrovnik as this club is situated at the entrance of the Old Town from Ploče Gate.
