Dubrovnik
The historic walled city of Dubrovnik, the heart of the ancient Republic of Ragusa and now part of Croatia, provides the setting for Australian wine writer, Andrew Johnston, who travels there to prepare an article on the wines and wineries of the southern Rhne region of France.
At the heart of the city, the Old Town is enclosed by medieval walls with battlements offering views of the Old Port. Art, weapons, and photos are on display at the Cultural History Museum in the Gothic-style Rector’s Palace, a film location for TV’s “Game of Thrones.” Pedestrianized Stradun street is lined with souvenir shops and fashion stores.
