#familytrips2024 Our family trip to Kotor was a magical blend of history, nature, and togetherness. We wandered through the narrow, cobblestone streets of the old town, marveling at the medieval architecture and charming squares. The kids were fascinated by the ancient walls and towers, while we enjoyed the stunning views of the Bay of Kotor. A highlight was our hike up to the fortress, where we were rewarded with breathtaking panoramas. We savored local delicacies at quaint cafes and bonded over shared adventures, making memories to cherish forever. Next on our list is Japan. We're excited to explore its vibrant cities, serene temples, and picturesque landscapes. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the tranquil gardens of Kyoto, Japan offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity. The kids can't wait to see cherry blossoms, try authentic sushi, and maybe even spot a sumo wrestler. With its rich culture and family-friendly attractions, Japan promises to be an unforgettable destination for our next family adventure.

Montenegro is a recommended country that is not yet well known to many Japanese people 🇲🇪 Introducing a wonderful World Heritage city in Montenegro 🎵 《Kotor》 The Old Town of Kotor is a World Heritage city with many preserved old orange brick buildings 🧱 It's perfect for walking around the city, and if you climb the castle walls, you'll find a spectacular spot with a panoramic view of Kotor Bay 😍 It took about 45 minutes one way to the top.

I visited Kotor Castle in Kotor, Montenegro. This place is a symbol of tourism in Kotor. The view of the lake and mountains from the castle is amazing, so although it's tough, be sure to climb up. It's a perfect spot for Instagram! The entrance fee is 15 euros, but if you climb from the back route of the castle, it's free. However, this route takes about 1.5 hours to climb the mountain and is quite tiring. Opening hours are from 7 AM to 8 PM The route to climb the mountain is from here↓ 📍Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/pbcagjD2X47YWhQt7

I flew to Kotor from China and experienced sea yachting, paragliding, and walking on the beach to watch the sunset. It was a great experience, but the country is too niche #globaltravel

Montenegro/Kotor Autumn in Montenegro is comfortable and the food was delicious. It's a little chilly at night, so you'll need a jacket. I recommend staying for 1-2 nights, but if you're staying in Croatia, it's also a good idea to take a day trip by bus. I didn't feel like anything was going on, but there is a bit of a dangerous atmosphere. Please be careful of pickpockets, rip-offs, and touts. You don't need euro bills. I have the impression that prices are cheaper than in Croatia. #Montenegro #Kotor

This place is definitely a must see. When you arrive at Kotor, the place will attract you so deeply that you won't want to leave it. Here you can enjoy some kind of medieval time, with old stone walls protecting the city from unwelcomed visitors, a person may find lots of restaurants and places where you can enjoy fresh tasty ice creams and the UNESCO atmosphere. If you come you won't regret it all. #kotor #travel #city #montenegro

A trip to the Bay of Kotor and the town of Kotor is a journey into one of the most picturesque and historically rich regions of Montenegro. As you approach the Bay of Kotor, the stunning scenery immediately captures your attention. Upon arriving in Kotor, you are greeted by the sight of the well-preserved medieval town nestled at the foot of the mountains. One of the highlights of visiting Kotor is climbing the fortress walls to the top of the hill. The hike is steep and challenging, but the panoramic views of the bay and the town below are well worth the effort. As you ascend, you pass by ancient fortifications and small chapels, each offering a unique perspective of the landscape. #europetrip

I recommend the optional tour because you can efficiently go around the highlights! The Kotor city walls, which overlook the port of Kotor, are quite a climb, but I definitely recommend it! The lunch after the climb was delicious! But! Try looking out over the spectacular view of Kotor from the top of the city walls, which are about 260 meters above sea level! You'll be glad you went.
