Sights

"Do not judge a book by its covers" or a country by its size. Luckily enough for its inhabitants, nature has condensed a plenitude of riches on this tiny country. For a taste of the best, the Durmitor National Park has it all: glacier lakes, mountain peaks, a splendid canyon, Tara River, all under UNESCO World Heritage protection. If hiking and trekking get you all exhausted, then head towards the glamorous Budva Riviera where opulent parties on shiny yachts are daily activities. Definitely don't miss the stunning Boka Bay, the Skadar Lake with its countless bird species and the postcard-like, picture perfect Kotor Old Town, which is sure to leave you in awe. This is just a brief selection, the rest is for you to discover.

Sounds

A central place in Montenegro traditional music was occupied by the gusle, a string instrument specific for the region held, surprisingly, between one's knees. Starting with religious chants, then going to classical music, pop, rock, dance and hip-hop, Montenegro musicians have followed international trends, mixing Western influences with local beats. Popular artists include Rambo Amadeus, Vlado Georgiev, Biljana Mitrovic and Sergej Cetkovic.

Smells

Due to such great diversity of relief, Montenegro flora is equally varied, which only adds to its special charm. What to expect in terms of olfactory experiences? Imagine a mix of fresh pine scent, sweet magnolia, woodsy cypress trees and minty eucalyptus. We would want to bottle that, wouldn't you?

Tastes

Montenegrin dishes, combining influences from neighbouring territories with ingredients and recipes particular to every region, from coastal to mountainous areas, are all packed with tasty flavours. Some dishes to try are popara, bread mixed with oil, cheese and milk, buzara, based on seafood, their special prosciutto made in Njegusi or Burek, pastry filled with cheese, spinach, meat or potatoes. No need for napkins, though, since you're sure to end up licking your fingers and for a good reason, this food is simply delicious.

Feels

Once in Montenegro, you'll be feeling like a kid who's been given a little dully wrapped present and, while opening it, finds that the content goes way beyond his expectations. It's a place of beautiful surprises, of exciting adventures, homely atmosphere and impressive contrasts, an unexpected treasure attracting more and more explorers.
