Bay of Kotor is one of the most picturesque places on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. The town of Kotor, the name of the bay originates from, was founded about the 9th century. It is considered as one of the most magnificent port towns in that part of the world. Kotor is surrounded from three sides by high mountains and a blue lagoon. These natural elements and a small architecture of the town - houses with characteristic red roofs - create truly unusual views.
