| IPTC INFO | | Caption | When Montenegro declared its independence from Serbia it took with it all of the confederation’s coastline. Set along the Adriatic Sea the beaches are a main attraction but southern Europe's only fjord is perhaps more iconic of Montenegrin tourism. Located near the town of Kotor which is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site the fjord awards spectacular views. Kotor's Venetian influence manifested in architectural styles dating back to the 15th century gives the town an antique charm. Tourists are understandably becoming more numerous. Head inland and you will discover that the Montenegrin landscape is anything but dull. The rugged Balkan mountains peak in Durmitor National Park another World Heritage Site. Here one can stand in awe at the sight of Tara Canyon. Eighty kilometres long and 1300 metres deep it is the second largest canyon in the world.__________________________________ view photos Uploaded on March 26 2008 by milacic to http://www.flickr.com/photos/montenegro_milacic/2364140026/ some rights reserved | | Headline | Set along the Adriatic Sea the beaches are a main attraction but southern Europe's only fjord is perhaps more iconic of Montenegrin tourism. | | Copyright Notice | travellerspoint.com/guide/Montenegro/ | | URL | http://www.travellerspoint.com/guide/Montenegro/ |
