Picturesque Kotor with its walled town nestling at the head of southern Europe’s deepest fjord has Montenegro’s most dramatic setting. In broody weather the atmosphere becomes all Wagnerian, dark shadows cut with fingers of sunlight while on a sunny day the wind-ripples on the purple water sparkle. Stari Grad (Old Town), lying under the lee of a mountain, is a labyrinth of cobbled laneways linking small squares containing ancient churches and former aristocratic mansions.
