Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik has a population of around 40,000 and is known as one of the best-preserved medieval cities in the Mediterranean. Its walls, almost two kilometers long, surround the old city center, which is under the protection of UNESCO. The city was once the seat of the Republic of Dubrovnik, an independent maritime and trading power that successfully balanced between the great powers for centuries. It has gained particular popularity in recent times as the main filming location for the series Game of Thrones.
