Hidden Gem: A Montenegro Travel Guide

Montenegro: Unveiling the Hidden Gems of the Balkans Montenegro, a Balkan country often overlooked by tourists, is gaining popularity as a hidden gem in Europe. A recent video by travel blogger heleneinbetween provides a detailed itinerary for exploring the country's stunning landscapes and charming towns. The video highlights several key locations. Kotor, a UNESCO-listed medieval town, is described as a "classic for a reason." Perast, a tiny village, is praised for its picturesque beauty. Tivat, a more upscale town, boasts designer shops and excellent seafood. The blogger recommends dining at Bocca Modern in Tivat. Beyond the coastal areas, the video also showcases inland attractions. Lake Skadar, a vast lake, is presented as an ideal location for hiking and kayaking. The author even suggests trying the local blackberry wine and a traditional meal of cheesy potatoes called Kachamak. "I love the beaches over here," says heleneinbetween in the video, emphasizing the appeal of Sveti Stefan, a fortified island village, particularly at sunset. Budva's old town and Mogren beach are also highlighted. The video concludes with a visit to Ostrog Monastery, built into a cliffside, and Durmitor National Park, where visitors can hike around Black Lake and marvel at Tara Canyon. The video, while personal, offers a well-structured and informative guide to Montenegro, suggesting a variety of experiences for travelers interested in exploring this beautiful Balkan country.
