Foreword<br />
Dear traveller, you’ve just arrived to Dubrovnik, a fortified<br />
seaside town that has enough history, legend, and natural<br />
beauty to fully render the above words true. Indeed your<br />
first glimpse of the town, especially when descending<br />
along the airport road where you bypass stoned houses,<br />
terracotta roofs and green pines could be a love at first<br />
sight experience. But we’re here to help your stay be better<br />
than OK!<br />
Our feature summer edition brings with it heaps of things,<br />
places and events for you to see and do. Possible highlights<br />
should include a visit to the Pelješac area and its country<br />
farms which are rich in grapes and wine cellars. We even<br />
have a new wine guide with our very own sommelier’s<br />
fancied red and whites from the area. Our special on Dubrovnik<br />
summer houses ought to leave you spellbound<br />
and for those who come to appreciate a bit of history, there<br />
is a write up on archaeology; you really get to appreciate<br />
the value of a building, monument or statue where they<br />
each have a story to tell. There are loads of events and festivals,<br />
as well as nightclubs for party goers with café culture<br />
part and parcel of life here! The summer beats keep on rolling<br />
and boy o boy do we have some sizzling calendar dates<br />
to put into your diary.<br />
And before you delve into your IYP guide, no matter how<br />
hot or crowded it may get in summer, no matter which Hollywood<br />
star you may happen to come across, don’t forget<br />
that the Dubrovnik is firmly on the UNESCO heritage list<br />
and we hope you go away with some inspiring memories.<br />
