Dubrovnik is a city of ancient streets lined with palaces, Venetian-style buildings, and bell towers, all cut from the same pale stone. The well preserved old town surrounded by medieval walls dating to the 13th century is a UNESCO world heritage treasure. Walking through the old town gives one a real sense of medieval life. A Franciscan monastery holds artifacts of the world's third oldest pharmacy. Dubrovnik served as one of the primary filming scenes for the TV series Game of Thrones.
