Herceg Novi, or Herceg Novi - the town, located not very far from the Croatian border. A favorite place of recreation of older people and families with children. It is very quiet here, calmly and reigns peacekeeping, which is unlikely perhaps. The city is located on the steps of the natural "stairs", going down to the shores of the Adriatic Sea. After the October Revolution, a lot of white officers who who lived in the city, who lived in the city, who lived and buried here, were found in Herceg-Novi, in the Russian cemetery, which was now attracted. Therefore, a large number of citizens have a mix of Russian noble blood than they are very proud. Herceg Novi is usually not the very first place considered for rest in Montenegro, so the Achlage on the beaches is practically no happening. Everything is breathing here a century-old silence, without creating an even account no reasons for anxiety or anxiety. Small cozy shops, old buildings, slowly walking along the shore of the townspeople ... To live and relax here - solid pleasure for the man tired of the fuss.

The symbol of the city is mimosa, rapidly blooming here in the spring. On this occasion, the annual Mimoze Festival (Fešta Od Mimoze) is held, celebrating quite widely and with the participation of various stars of the Balkan and international pop.

It is not in the midst of the season, but it is worth visiting the city!
