Sightseeing

Old town is Budva’s trademark, and one of the oldest settlements on the Adriatic Sea. At around 2,500 years old it’s a beautiful and historical site. A wander through the town reveals ancient churches and palaces, all crafted from local grey stone. Most of the churches are closed, but you can visit the citadel and see some of the ancient artifacts in the town museum. The Citadel itself and the museum in the old town are excellent places to learn about the history of Budva. Don’t miss the square in front of Santa Maria del Punta church, with its gorgeous view of the ancient church overlooking Ričardova Glava Beach.

The first mention of Budva’s citadel was in 1425, but archaeologists believe this was the site of an acropolis in ancient times. The acropolis was traditionally built on the highest point, with sheer cliff below it. From here, a settlement could be defended easily. The citadel has been consistently expanded and upgraded through the various empires that have ruled Budva. The biggest part of the citadel is the wing of barracks, built by the Austro-Hungarians in 1836. Inside the citadel you’ll find a small library and a little museum. You’ll also find the ruins of Santa Maria in Castello Church (12th – 14th centuries). There’s not a lot to see in the citadel, but it’s a good place to grab a cold beer and enjoy the views of the Budva Riviera and Saint Nikola island.

The sculpture of the dancer is perhaps one of the most famous and photographed attractions not only of the seaside town of Budva, but of all Montenegro. Beautiful and graceful bronze gymnast, located on a rock among the rocks near the beach Mogren and the famous hotel Avala, is a symbol of fidelity and has recently become an unofficial symbol of the city of Budva. Despite the huge popularity, not many tourists know the history of the origin of this stunning sculpture. The most common story is that it was inspired by a girl who waited for her sailor to come back from sea. The sailor never came back and she died on this spot of a broken heart.

Talking about the holy places of Montenegro, it is impossible not to mention the Orthodox monastery with a rich history, which is completely covered with secrets and legends and which, unfortunately, many tourists do not know. The name of this monastery is Praskvica. It is considered a representative of the Orthodox architecture of the Balkan Peninsula and is the most famous monastic complex in the Pashtrovichi area of ​​the Budva municipality. The monastery is located 8 km from the center of Budva, in a picturesque olive grove on the hill in the former fishing village of Chelobrdo, on the outskirts of Milocer, near Przno and the popular island of Sveti Stefan. The monastery of Praskvica has its own name due to an interesting natural phenomenon - a small streamlet flowing in the vicinity of it, in which flows the water smelling of peaches. And in the springtime, when streams begin to flow down from the mountains, the air in these parts is filled with the aroma of peach trees. This is what gave the name of the monastic monastery, as in the local dialect "praske" means "peach".
