This is the first full-length guide published in English to explore all the attractions of the little-known country of Montenegro. From natural history and mountain walks to seaside breaks and hidden monasteries and churches, this guide covers every aspect of the history of this oft-embattled republic and the wide-ranging variety of its cultural heritage. Architectural gems from medieval times vie with Venetian fortresses and churches for the attention of visitors; and along the eastern border lies Lake Skadar, a nature lover's dream with national park status. Detailed coverage of the capital, Podgorica, and the gateway city of Dubrovnik is provided. Also included is practical information on planning and preparation: from visas, flights, and accommodations to information on local culture, food, and local transport. The publication will coincide with a major relaunch of the country as a holiday vacation by the Montenegrin tourist organization.
