Šetalište Pet Danica

TIME : 2016/2/18 22:51:04

Named after five young women, all called Danica, who died during WWII, this pedestrian promenade stretches along the waterfront for over 5km from Igalo to Meljine. It's lined with summer bars, shops, concrete swimming platforms and the odd rocky cove, and in places it ducks in and out of tunnels carved through headlands. This was once the route of a trainline linking Zelenika to Sarajevo via Herceg Novi and Dubrovnik. The old stone railway station still stands at the foot of the Old Town, although it's long since been converted into a cafe.
