Цитадель, Будва /Citadel, Budva
Сегодня выходной, мы с папой пошли в церковь рядом с баб Галиным домом, попинали мяч на улице, позавтракали и поехали в центр Будвы, в старый город , показать Вам цитадель (крепость святой Марии). У Бабы Гали квартира на горе над Будвой в районе Под Майнэ, тут воздух по свежее, неудобно что нет тротуаров если ходить, то по дорогам, но тут так все привыкли.
Надо купить билет на входе чтобы погулять по старой крепости, особо интересного ничего, маленький музей кораблей старого Черногория (еще в Венецианские времена). С моей двоюродной сестрой Василиной побегали по крепости, забежали в ресторан, который пока не работал в этом году, но мы тут все равно полазили.
???? Место: Черногория, Будва

Today is weekend, my dad and I went to the Church near my grandma’s Galina house, kicked the ball on the street, had Breakfast and went to the center of Budva, to the old town, to show you the citadel (the fortress of St. Mary).Grandma’s apartment situated on the mountain above Budva in the area Pod Maine, here the air is fresh, it is inconvenient that there are no sidewalks if you go by foot, so you have to walk on the roads, but everyone is so used to it.
Need to buy a ticket at the entrance to walk around the old fortress, nothing interesting, small maritime Museum of old Montenegro (in Venetian times). With my cousin Vasilina we ran around the fortress, ran into a restaurant that has not worked yet this year, but we still went in.
???? Location: Montenegro, Budva

Budva Castle (Citadel)
Hisar veya Kale olarak nitelendirebileceğimiz Citadel, Budva'da görülmesi gereken yerlerden biri. İçinde eski bir kütüphane ile gemi maketleri, yerel giysiler gibi eşyaların bulunduğu odalar var.
#Черногория Будва Цитадель (#montenegro budva citadela)
В Будве стреляли в местного мафиози. Полиция закрыла часть стены Цитадели. Мы обследовали другую часть стены. Получили огромное удовольствие!
In Budva was shot in the local mafia. Police closed part of the wall of the Citadel. We examined another part of the wall. Was great fun!
Creative History Balkans Tour / Old Town Fortress, Budva #CHBT
Creative History Balkans Tour (CHBT) is a project that aims to develop and promote the tour based on four historical fortresses in four Balkans’ countries: Petrovaradin Fortress in Novi Sad, Serbia; Citadela Fortress Old City of Budva, Montenegro; Kastel Fortress in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina; and Skadar Fortress in Rozefa, Albania.
The significance of all these proposed locations and fortifications is that they each symbolise periods, type of architecture and design, and occasions for their built or creation. Balkan has been known as a turbulent region and for this reason cultural heritage, which is very rich, is important as it helps learning about each other and building bridges between people and communities, as well as between past and future.
The project CHBT is realised by Foundation Exit, it is provided by the RCC Tourism Development and Promotion Project’s Grant Programme and it is funded by European Union. This project will encourage and support increased youth mobility through the region, fostering close social interaction with host populations, which will contribute towards “tourism for peace” value.

The Citadel is a fortification within the city of Budva, formerly known as St. Mary’s Castle. It is located on a rocky, elevated part of the south part of the Old Town of Budva. The Citadel has never changed its role as the town’s fortification, regardless of who was ruling the area. Rulers and cultures have changed throughout the history of Budva, especially over the past 2.5 millennia that we are more familiar with, thus changing the look and size of the town’s fortress. Over the past centuries, it has often been destroyed and demolished and then again rebuilt and repaired, so most of its present look dates back to the first half of 19th century and the period of the Austrian reign.
The history of this fortification starts at the same time as the life in Budva, in prehistoric and heroic times, when myths and legends depicted, in an unusual way, the reality of the period more than four thousand years ago. The establishment of Budva is connected with the myth of Cadmus and Harmonia, characters from traditional Balkan mythology, whose names often appear in the oldest and most significant myths in the Aeagan region and the Balkans, especially from the island of Samothrace, over Thebes, Ohrid and Durrës, all the way to Budva.
There are also other interesting legends all connected with The Citadel : about the name of the town of Budva, the Tunja shoal, Mogren the sailor , The Lady of Budva – Madonna in Punta, Holy Sunday, Maiden’s Leap and the legend of Saint with a dog-donkey head.
In the vicinity of the Citadel there is the Museum of the Town of Budva.
Altstadt (Old Town) Budva in Budva, Montenegro
Budva is a Montenegrin town on the Adriatic Sea, former bishopric and present Latin Catholic titular see. It has around 60,000 inhabitants, and it is the centre of Budva Municipality. The coastal area around Budva, called the Budva riviera, is the center of Montenegrin tourism, known for its well-preserved medieval walled city, sandy beaches and diverse nightlife. Budva is 2,500 years old, which makes it one of the oldest settlements on the Adriatic coast.
See the former city fortress, Altstadt (Old Town) Budva, a fully functional complex of antique structures filled with quaint restaurants, historical sites, and homes. As you approach the site from Budva's vibrant promenade, you'll observe its rugged walls, which preserve remnants of numerous cultures, spanning the 6th century BCE to the present day. Tour the narrow Venetian streets, see Roman baths, and visit museums that preserve ancient treasures, medical instruments, and miniature multicolored glass vessels where sailors kept their loved ones' tears, according to tradition.
The Old Town of Budva is situated on a rocky peninsula, on the southern end of Budva field. Archaeological evidence suggests that Illyrian settlement was formed on the site of the Old Town before Greek colonization of the Adriatic. While the site was permanently settled since Roman era, most of existing city walls and buildings were erected during the Venetian rule.
The entire town is encircled with defensive stone walls. The fortifications of Budva are typical of the Medieval walled cities of the Adriatic, complete with towers, embrasures, fortified city gates and a citadel.
Originally, there were gates on all of the four sides of the walled city. However, sea-facing gates were closed up over the years. The main city gate is Porta di Terra Ferma, the grand entry to the city from the west. It is also the beginning of the city's main thoroughfare, Njegoševa Street. There are also four more gates on the north wall, facing Budva marina (Porta Pizana, Porta Pizana 1 and 2, and Porta Pizanella), and one small gate facing the southwestern beach of Ričardova glava.
The layout of the town is roughly orthogonal, although many streets deviate from the grid, resulting in somewhat irregular pattern, with many piazzas connected with narrow streets. Today, the entire city within the walls is pedestrian-only.
The town citadel is situated on the southern tip of the city. Originally known as Castle of St Mary, fortification was continually rebuilt and expanded through Middle Ages, reaching its final form during the Austro-Hungarian rule. The sea-facing 160m long ramparts of the citadel, complete with eastern and western towers, are intricately connected to the rest of the city walls. Austrian stone barracks form the most prominent structure within the castle, separating the citadel from the rest of the walled city. Ruins of the Santa Maria de Castello church, after which the entire complex was originally named, are located within the citadel.
A large public square is located to the north of the citadel, containing all of the churches of the old town - St. Ivan church (17th century), Santa Maria in Punta (840 AD), and The Holy Trinity church (1804).
The Old Town suffered extensive damage in 1979 earthquake; repair and reconstruction took eight years (until 1987), but traces of the damage are now hardly noticeable. Today, it is a prime visitor attraction of Budva, packed with tourists during the summer months. Its narrow cobbled streets are lined with restaurants, cafes, pubs and shops.
Although Budva is notable for its long history and its well-preserved Old Town, it is not primarily known as a destination for sightseeing or cultural tourism. Unlike Kotor or Dubrovnik, Budva has an image of a crowded beach resort, with a lively and vibrant atmosphere and a very active nightlife.

Budva Travel Guide - Montenegro Charming Experience
Budva Travel Guide - Montenegro Charming Experience
Budva is a coastal tourist resort in Montenegro. It is often called Montenegrin Miami, because it is the most crowded and most popular tourist resort in Montenegro, with beaches and vibrant nightlife. Budva is on the central part of Montenegrin coast, called Budvanska Rivijera. It has developed around a small peninsula, on which the old town is situated. It is by far most visited destination in Montenegro, attracting mostly domestic, Russian, Serbian and other Eastern European tourists with an old town, bars and nightclubs, and beaches mostly consisting of small rocks. It is base for mass tourism, while in its near vicinity there are luxury resorts such as Sveti Stefan and Miločer.
There are as many as 35 beaches in the Budva area, mostly rock and a little sand (8 beaches are marked with blue flags). During the summer in particular, the day and night-life offers opportunities to enjoy theatre plays and performances, music events and entertainment programs.
Many nightclubs use go-go dancers to attract customers, and families might be offended by the open display of almost-naked girls in the street. There is mainly one street, the main promenade, where all the action happens. Budva appears to be undergoing poorly planned, unchecked growth with towering unattractive apartment buildings and hotels being built wherever there is open space - which unfortunately includes building directly on the beach.
Some tourists may find Budva disappointing and cheesy because of the over-crowded beaches filled with chairs, umbrellas and loud music in some places. Prices for food and accommodation are also well above what can be found in less popular resorts. The old town is adjacent to the marina, where the wealthy come to moor their luxury yachts. The old town is small but beautiful, with restaurants and boutiques selling luxury goods at high prices.
If you came to Budva with your own car, use it inside the city only when you have to. Traffic is terribly congested during the summer, and parking spaces around the old town are almost impossible to find, and very expensive when you do. There are many tourist boats that dock in Budva harbor which offer rides to nearby beaches, Sv. Nikola island, or one-day trips to various destinations on Montenegrin coast, but these are also expensive. Unlike other seaside cities, there are no €1 water taxis here.
There is a wide choice of places to eat at in Budva. In old town you will find almost anything: from pizza-places, bakeries to seafood and Chinese restaurants. Across the harbor, at the very coast, there are some premium fresh seafood restaurants, notably Jadran and Donna. Along the entire promenade there are many fast food places, offering barbecue, giros, pancakes, slices of pizza, icecream etc with affordable prices. A McDonalds seasonal restaurant is open on the promenade during the summer.
Accommodation in Budva is abundant, and varies from renting a room for €10-15 to handsomely priced five-star hotels. There are big differences in prices of accommodation - not only between types of accommodation but for same accommodation during different times of the year. For example, a hostel-like room that rents for €7 per person/per night during the off-season can rent for €20 and up per person/per night during July and August.
