The Dubrovnik Riviera/Islands region
Dubrovnik is the most well known destination of the Dubrovnik Riviera with its famous medieval walled town, but there are many other beautiful and interesting places to stay and visit... Great food, stunning views and wonderful sea-side locations and beaches - Dubrovnik is a real jewel. Apart from its outstanding natural beauty and clean environment it has an incredibly well preserved historical heritage and offers a great variety of activities to its visitors.
With 2,554 hours of sunshine a year, Dubrovnik ranks among the sunniest towns of southern Europe. In July it has 12.4 hours of sunshine a day! The vegetation is subtropical and extremely luxuriant (olives, almonds, citrus fruit, rosemary, laurel, pine etc).
Dubrovnik / Dubrovnik Old Town area
The place to start is the Stradun – the main street of the old town. From here wind your way through the narrow streets and view the sights from the top of the city walls to get a feel for this centuries old citadel.
The Dubrovnik Museum in the Duke's Palace keeps 15,500 exhibits in its cultural and historical department. A collection of furniture from the 17th-19th century, uniforms of dukes and councillors, aristocratic garments and many other items are exhibited in the authentic halls of the palace. The Maritime Museum (situated in the fortress Sveti Ivan) has a number exhibits on a permanent display, related to the maritime affairs of Dubrovnik and Croatia on the whole, with a particular emphasis on the history of the Dubrovnik Republic. The museum of the Franciscan monastery keeps all inventories of the old pharmacy, as well as the works of Dubrovnik jewellers, painters and embroiders. The museum of the Dominican monastery exhibits valuable examples of Dubrovnik painting from the 15th and the 16th centuries, as well as sculptures, jewellery, manuscripts, incunabula and notes (music). The treasury of the Dubrovnik cathedral keeps the relics of St. Blaise, patron of Dubrovnik, and numerous paintings and works of art. The Rupe Ethnographical Museum presents traditional occupations and the rural architecture of the region of Dubrovnik, national costumes and hand-made textiles.
A great number of Dubrovnik restaurants and taverns offer delicious specialities of local and international cuisine – the nicest place to eat is in the old town. Sea food is obviously a must-eat here – some of the 5 Star hotel restaurants are worth trying for a nice meal if you are fed up with the old town! Also, try some of the little villages and towns surrounding Dubrovnik for a different slant on the areas food...
The most important event in the cultural life of the city is the Dubrovnik Summer Festival (10th of July - 25th of August). It is a theatre and classical and folk music festival; Concerts and other performances take place on open stages in the town (Gunduliceva Poljana, Drziceva Poljana, Lovrijenac, Revelin) or in beautiful interiors of the most famous buildings (Duke's Palace, cloisters, churches). The repertoire includes works of Croatian and world classics, performed by the leading personalities from Croatia and abroad, including a number of world-famous actors, directors, conductors, etc. So far several hundreds of them have performed in Dubrovnik.
The artistic life of Dubrovnik is characterized by numerous exhibitions taking place throughout the year. Apart from already renowned galleries - The Art Gallery (Put Frana Supila 23), its exhibition space Luza Art Centre (Stradun), Sebastian - occasional and permanent exhibitions are also held in other spaces as well.
The Dubrovnik carnival festivities are also very popular - so-called Dubrovnik "karnevo" (local variant of the word "carnival"), held ever since the early Middle Ages, when they were brought from neighbouring Italy. Another important event is the Feast Day of St. Blaise, also the Day of Dubrovnik (3rd of February). The feast takes place for the whole week, including religious ceremonies, a procession through the town, concerts, sports events, entertainment and carnival programs. Excursions to Dubrovnik during that week are regularly organized.
