Vacanta in Muntenegru 9. Orasul Vechi, Ulcinj / Montenegrin Vacation 9. Old Town, Ulcinj

I saw the Old Town when I went on the terrace, at our accommodation in Ulcinj. It was right there, under our nose! So, we went to visit.


We arrived there when the sun begun to descend. Nice views are revealed towards the sea, at sunset.

Unfortunately, my expectations for the Old Town have been too high. I believed I will see something similar to the old towns in Croatia, but this one was much smaller and only few buildings have been renovated and used. Most of them for restaurant and terraces.

Nevertheless, we took a walk, enjoying the views. Only few people have been in the fortress, and most of them headed for the restaurants. It is a pity because the other houses could be put to other uses too.

Am vazut Orasul Vechi imediat, de pe terasa, asa ca ne-am grabit sa mergem sa il vizitam.

Din pacate, asteptarile mele au fost mai mari decat ceea ce mi-a oferit realitatea. Ma asteptam la ceva in genul oraselor vechi din Croatia dar cel din Ulcinj e inca departe. E mult mai mic decat ce am vazut pana acum in Croatia dar principalul neajuns este paraginirea in care este lasat, cu cateva mici exceptii. Cateva case din piatra au fost restaurate si transformate in restaurante. Se poate patrunde in Orasul Vechi fie pe poarta principala, in apropierea catedralei, fie de jos, de langa Plaja Mica, trecand pe langa o mica marina si urcand niste trepte.

Noi am ajuns acolo cand soarele incepea deja sa apuna. Am urcat treptele dinspre plaja mica si nu ne-a trebuit prea mult timp ca sa parcurgem aceasta zona “turistica”. Eu as zice mai mult “culinara”, oameni intalnind mai ales in zona celor cateva restaurante. Avantajul vizitarii la o ora relativ tarzie consta in faptul ca de pe terasa pe care se inalta Orasul Vechi se poate admira in voie apusul soarelui. Pentru ca nu sunt prea multe de povestit, va las in compania fotografiilor.
