I’ve visited Dubrovnik twice, both for just one day during a Mediterranean cruise, once in 2003 (when hardly any photos were taken) and once in 2012, which is when these pictorial memories were made. It’s a grand place, dominated by its remarkable Old Town, with its incredible walls.

Let’s start at the top and work our way down. From the wall walk, everywhere you look you see contrasting and clashing roofs, with that terracotta red gleaming in the sun.

And you see things from unusual angles

You also get a great view of the sea

And the harbour

And the view emphasises the straight narrow streets

At the end of that street you can see the famous Bell Tower

Other beautiful sights include the Church of St Blaise

in fact there are churches everywhere

This is the Franciscan Monastery

On ground level, the streets are great fun to explore

Or, alternatively, you can just sit and watch the world go by

And, if you ever forget where you are, there are plenty of reminders!

Thanks for joining me on a quick trip through Dubrovnik. On Monday it’s back to the theatrical posts, and more memories of 1977. Stay safe!
