About
快速信息: Wandering the low cobbled ramparts you'll stumble into cosy cafés and artisan workshops tucked among renovated stone houses, a surprising pocket of daily life. At dusk the warm light makes the rough masonry glow, and traces of ancient foundations peek through, giving every corner a story locals love to share.
亮点: Slip through the low stone arch beside the busy sidewalk and you step into a tiny cobbled courtyard where morning sun piles into warm gold, the air carrying the sharp, flaky scent of freshly baked burek and the bitter steam of strong coffee. On summer evenings a handful of neighbors gather to play backgammon under one amber lantern, their dice tapping against wood while an old tower's hollow bricks carry ten or so laughter-filled voices like a private echo.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, cobbles and worn stone make some paths uneven.
- Head for the clock tower and upper walkways for the best city-view photo angles at sunset.
- Visit on weekday mornings to avoid weekend crowds and school groups.
- Carry a light jacket in spring and autumn, wind can be strong along the walls.
