Kotor - The Old Town of cats and thematic buildings moments

Wow, wow, wow it looks like we are not in Greece! Do you know where? In Montenegro! After a long journey from Croatia to Montenegro by bus, we finally arrived at our apartment in the old town. And the first city we visited was Kotor. Here is a fact about this place (of course with a long explanation). The name, which is a bit similar to the Ukrainian word for cat, made me somewhat suspicious. Somewhere in the back of our minds, we all asked ourselves if this is not the Montenegrin word for cat. After the first day of living in this old city, we noticed that there are a lot of street cats, magnets, pillows, cat figurines everywhere! Also, in some places there are metal statues of cats in absolutely random places.

And so we found out that Kotor is the top 6 place where there are the most of these furry animals! Yes! Intuition does not fail! If you don't believe it, you can find out for yourself on Google. Well, now we continue about the city of Kotor itself. I am amazed by these interesting, secret and mysterious streets! This is an incredible place where you can see the fabulousness of the city of cats. These streets fascinate me! When you first enter the city through the large gate, there are two cafes where you can relax. Although we always choose to first look at other cafes hidden between the streets. If you are very hot here during the day, then you can cool down with ice cream.

And here, if you try, you will find ice cream of unusual preparation! You choose the flavors, and they are mixed with white ice cream, twisted into tubes and given to you in a glass. But I will tell you about this in another post. Also, on the same square where the two cafes are located, there is a huge lamp that starts to glow at night and replaces the lanterns. The whole city is surrounded by a large wall that smoothly stretches along the mountain. Although the entrance to the mountain is paid, because it is a huge wall with 1300 steps, and there is a castle on the mountain. But I will also tell you about this in another post.

This whole city is very cozy, and the most beautiful thing about it is the style of stone. Absolutely every house here is made of this material. Carved patterns near the windows, interesting shapes - this makes the city all the more mysterious. It is extremely interesting to explore the streets when you do not know what and where. Multi-colored inserts in the windows complement the design. It's like a big labyrinth: you don't know where the street is and where the dead end is.

Authentic cafes create even greater coziness here. Stairs, grates, bells - I like it all so much! There is also a very beautiful church at the end of the square, somewhere in the middle of the city. There is also a cafe with umbrellas. In Ukraine, in the city of Lviv, there are two streets with such umbrellas. It looks very nice.

Walking here, we saw one thing that is very convenient. There are taps with drinking water everywhere. So you don't need to buy water in the store. Also, here's a trick for you. Here you can buy a broom on which Baba Yaga flew. With numbers like cars! And it also says "Fly only with a broom, no planes!". This is very funny. 😂 Would you buy one of these? There is a very nice (and funny) town here. So, if you want to get new impressions of old cities, come here!

Bye bye everyone! Thinks that you like my post 😇❤️
