Budva is a summer tourist attraction, with a very nice historic centre. To be there during off season, with bad wheater (we weren't lucky), it was strange but with a charm.
Kotor is a wonderful place: the town is located at the end of a fjord, a narrow and long gulf surrounded by mountains! The old town is well kept and has this triangular shape.
I climbed along the ruins of the walls that defended the city in the past and the view was fantastic! there were some goats to accompany me, no other tourists...
Perast is a village along the fjord and seemed to be under big renovation works. The tourist season is coming soon and they must be ready.
Just in front of Perast, there are two small islands in which were built two monasteries, one catholic and one orthodox...a good example of par condicio!
Cetinje was the old capital of Montenegro and is located in the mountains. We visited the monastery, where one priest showed us the museum. I discovered that the Italian Queen Elena, wife of King Vittorio Emanuele III, was the daughter of the king of Montenegro, Nicola. We also saw a special relic kept in the church, the hand of S. Marco the evangelist! It was also strange that was without two fingers, because they are in other places...to believe or not?

Una liked your post a lot, she told me to tell you. She liked the photos too, they nicely reminded her of the time when she visited Crna Gora.
