"Zidine" The City Walls Reviews
 Sep 12, 2007
One of the best ways to get a feeling for Dubrovnik is to take a 2km walk around the city walls. Built in the 13th century and strengthened in the 14th and 15th century the walls are 25m high and up to 3m thick. As you look down at the town, notice the patchwork of colours formed by the red-roofs. Also , you are bound to see some war wounds as Dubrovnik was shelled in the Yugoslavian war in 1991. I would recommend doing the walk to the walls in the late afternoon or early morning, I went at 1pm and it was dam hot. Make sure you bring your camera with you there are way too many breathtaking pictures you will not want to miss.
