As “the Pearl of the Adriatic”, the city of Dubrovnik attracts many tourists who enjoy the many cultural and historical monuments, as well as the local cuisine and a host of things to see and do in beautiful surroundings that create a magical ambience in any season. However, have you ever thought about what it’s like to live in a city such as this?

Photographs – treasured keepsakes

Life inside the city walls is full of historical and cultural activities organised by the local residents who inhabit the narrow alleys. During your stay in this Mediterranean city, you are sure to have noticed the white linen hanging from the windows, adding to the colour of the city and imbuing it with the smell of fabric softener. Such everyday images inside the city walls have inspired numerous photographers to create unique photos that have travelled the globe. Surrounded by history, theatre, the arts and cultural monuments, the residents of Dubrovnik, especially those who live on Stradun and in the nearby streets, live a different, Mediterranean lifestyle. This way of life is made richer by a long gastronomic history and recipes passed down from generation to generation. A large number of sunny days throughout the year, a culture of sipping coffee on the terraces of cafés, and taking walks along beautiful promenades are the perfect invitation to visit Dubrovnik and feel the positive vibes of this city, regardless of whether it’s your first visit or you’ve been here many times before.
