VENUE
"Those who seek paradise on Earth should come to Dubrovnik." - George Bernard Shaw once said - and he was not far off the mark. The Old Town of Dubrovnik, nicknamed "the Pearl of the Adriatic", is renown for its beauty and cultural heritage, and it is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Stradun, Dubrovnik's central promenade, is bustling with life. One of the lovely features of Dubrovnik is that one can make a tour of its churches, monasteries, museums, palaces, and city walls on foot. Other activities include swimming, sailing, diving, and excursions.
The WWW site of the Dubrovnik Tourist Board offers a lot of information about Dubrovnik, from history, facts and figures to maps, attractions, dining, and leisure activities.
