One of the main attractions of Kotor is the Kotor Fortress. According to the inhabitants of the city, not a single conqueror was able to take the city! Yes, and when you see the Kotor fortress, you can believe it - the fortress walls zigzag up the slopes of the mountains and go up 150 meters. It was almost impossible to take such a fortress : ) and climbed the Kotor Fortress to take amazingly beautiful pictures of the Bay of Kotor. I highly recommend everyone who wants to repeat my feat to have comfortable shoes, because the road upstairs is like masonry, collapsed in places, gravel, dust and hot sun .
