Dubrovnik In Your Pocket - Great Onofrio Fountain (Velika Onofrijeva fontana)
One of the first spectacular sights that greets you when you enter Stradun from the Pile Gate is the Great Onofrio Fountain, with its huge central dome and sixteen water taps all around. A ledge and steps around the water trough provide a perfect resting spot for tired sightseers. The fountain is the end point of the aqueduct that architects Onofrio dell Cava and Andriuzzi de Bulbilo built from a source near the river, almost 12km away, one of the first aqueducts to be built on the territories of today's Croatia. Completed in 1438, the fountain was once more ornate with a massive cupola, but was damaged in the great earthquake and never repaired. Onofrio's small fountain is an elegant little masterpiece decorated with playful dolphins that stands near the tower at the other end of Stradun.

Small Onofrio Fountain in Dubrovnik repaired
The Small Onofrio's fountain, one of the iconic symbols of the historic Old City of Dubrovnik was damaged five days ago when one of the heavy stone slabs from the outer rim crashed on the ground. Of course, it had to be repaired as soon (and as good) as possible and the Friends of Dubrovnik Antiquities reacted really fast. Today, the fountain got its missing piece back!

DUBROVNIK (Dalmatia) Croatia by Cehulić family
★★★★★ ★★★★★
Dubrovnik is an old city on the Adriatic Sea coast in the extreme south of Croatia. It is one of the most prominent tourist resorts of the Mediterranean. The city of Dubrovnik (Latin: Ragusa) was built on maritime trade. In the Middle Ages it became the only city-state in the Adriatic to rival Venice. Supported by its wealth and skilled diplomacy, the city achieved a remarkable level of development during the 15th and 16th centuries.

A Guided Tour of Dubrovnik, Croatia
Local guide, Dennis, shepherded the Explore group through a whirlwind tour of old Dubrovnik, just as crowded today as it was yesterday. A mish-mosh of information.
Seven million stones were used to build the fortifications. There are 650 steps on the wall and it costs 70k per person to walk the City Walls. Croatia is Roman Catholic. Buildings were constructed in the 17th century to quarantine infectious diseases called Lazarettos.
Carry a water bottle and refill from big or small Onofrio's Fountains. Free and potable water. Now, listen to Dennis tell you about Dubrovnik...

Overflowing with fans of Game of Thrones (Ivana more than most), we walked the never ending walls of old town Dubrovnik. Exploring Kings Landing we grabbed an ice cream and cooled off at Onofrios Fountain. Hungry from the heat we refuelled at Gils restaurant before scaling the steps of shame recreating the steps of Ivana's favourite characters. Taking the cable car up Mount Srd we rounded off our day by watching the incoming Croatian storm.
Come walk with us as we discover Dubrovnik in a day.

Walls of Dubrovnik
The Walls of Dubrovnik are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the citizens of the afterward proclaimed maritime city-state of Dubrovnik (Ragusa), situated in southern Croatia, since the city's founding prior to the 7th century as a Byzantium castrum on a rocky island named Laus.
The oldest systems of fortifications around the town were likely wooden palisades.Today's intact city walls, constructed mainly during the 12th–17th centuries,mostly a double line, have long been a source of pride for Dubrovnik. The walls run an uninterrupted course of approximately 1,940 metres (6,360 ft) in length, encircling most of the old city, and reach a maximum height of about 25 metres (82 ft).
