Srđ Dubrovnik
If you are longing for adventure which an accommodation in Dubrovnik promises, jet not ready for crowded picturesque streets of the town, climb on Srđ. Srđ is a hill upon Dubrovnik, close, but still far from streets crowded with tourist. It is just 413 meters high. Climbing on Srđ can be real challenging in hot summer days, but you don't have to climb by foot. A cable car was ruined in the war, but renewed in 2010 and it pleasures everyone who decide to view the town from birds perspective. Cable car departures every half an hour and can take 30 people along. The drive takes only 4 minutes, but once you get on top, you'll find the most magical panorama with bluish sea beneath your feet and scattered Elafiti islands in the distance. It is not the view that Srđ offers only. The fortress Imperial on top is built in 1810 during Napoleon. The importance of that fortress was huge in his days, as well in that latest war. Thus, a museum of the Homeland war is in there today with all the ammunition that felt on the town exposed, with various document and presentation of suffering Dubrovnik along. The symbol of that starvation is a cross made of Brac stone which is proudly rising in the sky near the fort. Here you will not be hungry or thirsty, because Srđ has a restaurant where you can taste the culinary bravures of nlocal cuisine, and there is a gift shop where you can buy a reminder of this magical trip with irresistible overview of the beautiful Dubrovnik region.
