Herceg Novi, Montenegro - Herceg Novi Old Town & Beach
The marvelous city of Herceg Novi is a coastal town in Montenegro, situated at the foot of mountain Orien. Herceg Novi is recognisable by the abundance of mimosa trees and its numerous flights of stairs. It is a ‘city of the sun’, thanks to the large number of sunny days all year round. Full of thick greenery, Herceg Novi hides numerous kinds of tropical flowers. Towards the end of January the town becomes scented with the subtle fragrance of yellow and green mimosas and the festival of Praznik Mimosa is dedicated to this flower. During the summer months many festivals are organised to further enrich the tourist offer of this enchanted town. The town hosts a large summer tradition, the oldest summer music festival in Montenegro - Muzičke skale or Musical Stairs.
The most visited places in Herceg Novi are : Sahat – Kula (1667), Kanli – Kula (1483), Fortress Spanjola (1538), Fortress Forte Mare (1687) and the Serbian orthodox church of Archangel Michael, located at Belavista – the central square of Herceg Novi. It's only a part of the cultural heritage of this renowned town. Must see place is the Orthodox Monastery of Savina. Located in the Savinska Dubrava Grove, this monastery features unique Mediterranean vegetation and provides a breathtaking view of the Bay.
From the sea, the view of Herceg Novi is breathtaking. A tradition of importing seeds, exotic plants, trees and fruits from around the world has transformed Herceg Novi into a veritable botanic garden, carefully tended and expanded over centuries. Built on a series of terraces, this Town Garden is positioned perfectly, with a view of the open sea and two peninsulas, Luštica and Prevlaka.
As in all other town on the Coast, Herceg Novi also has a mild Mediterranean climate; with dry and warm summers and mild winters. Herceg Novi is famous for its SPA and health centers. Nearby Igalo there is a spring of sea mud called Igalskoje blato and also a famous mineral water spring – Igalskoje saltine.
The island of Mamula is located very near from Herceg Novi. You can easily hire a boat to take you there. The island is well-known for its fortress built to protect it from the enemies and that served later on as a prison. In order to fully appreciate each name, where it came from and what it means to this town, tourists should plan a visit spanning several days—this visit would also give tourists the opportunity to explore the city’s past, its soul and its color.
