The reviews highlight the stunning contrast between the town's red rooftops and the deep blue waters of the Bay of Kotor. Many travelers describe the experience as stepping back in time, praising the narrow stone streets, Venetian palaces, and the dramatic limestone mountains that frame the city. The presence of numerous cats throughout the town is a recurring and well-loved detail.
