Picturesque Market Dubrovnik_Rolleiflex

Old Town is the easiest place to find in Dubrovnik, it represents Dubrovnik itself.Stradun represents the core of the Old Town. The word comes from Venetian "stradone" which means "big street". It is the center and any corner is the meeting place of locals and visitors. Walking down this big street, people who work in restaurants will offer you the menu every 20-30 meters, but don't get discouraged, you will eventually find a proper meal in one of numerous choices.

At the end of Stradun, street at the right leads to Gundulić Square where the market is. When there, you will observe the scene made of high statue of famous croatian poet Ivan Gundulić, under him the benches full of fruits, vegetables, dry figs, aromatic oils, home made cheese, liquers and various products with centuries old tradition. Behind the benches there are lovely characters, hosts to everybody who visits their market. A homey atmosphere indeed...
