City of Bar - Stari Bar - Montenegro

At the southern edge of Montenegro lies the picturesque city of Bar. With rolling mountains, warm waters and a bustling cityscape, it’s a hugely popular destination for yachters from around the world. For thousands of years, people have been drawn to the intoxicating beauty of Bar’s countryside. The city’s chic, contemporary looks belie a much longer history, rich with romance and excitement. The blend of tradition modernity within the Port of Bar’s city limits make it a huge tourist destination and hub for coastal expeditions. Besides being an important port, Bar is also the final station on the Belgrade-Bar railroad.

Southeast of the city, Stari Bar (Old Town – Old Bar) elevates itself some four kilometers inland from the coast at the foot of Mount Rumija (1.594 m) and at an altitude of 110 m. Just arriving in Old Bar gives you a sense of the old times, with many coloured houses at the foot of the site, decorated with the most amazing colours. It’s a colourful mish-mash of restaurants and souvenir shops that showcases the Turkish influence that 300 years of Ottoman rule had on the area. The cobbled street that leads to the Old town is one of prettiest streets in Montenegro. The Old Town of Bar also known as a Montenegrin Pompeii is the largest urban agglomeration among the ruins in Montenegro.
