Kotor 2005

 

I spent the weekend in Kotor, a city on the Adriatic Sea. Kotor dates from medieval times and is completely surrounded by walls.

Town Clock Tower

 

 

 

The pyramid-shaped structure at the base was the town pillory.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The passageway between these two buildings led the way to my hotel.
