Montenegro is a country of exceptional diversity, in which the sea, mountains, lakes and cities with a rich history alternate in short distances. Along the 294 kilometers of the Adriatic coast there are old coastal towns, while the Bay of Kotor, one of the most impressive landscapes of the Mediterranean and part of the UNESCO world heritage, is a special place where nature and history meet.
It is in this unique setting that the EU-Western Balkans Summit is being held.
In the interior of the country are mountain massifs, canyons and five national parks, including Durmitor, Biogradska gora and Lake Skadar, which make Montenegro one of the most diverse natural entities in Europe.
In a small area, natural contrasts, cultural heritage and rich tradition are united, which is reflected in cities, customs and everyday life.
Montenegro's landscapes offer compelling visual stories around every corner.
