Dan's pad

Prince Danilo started the town of Danilovgrad would you believe. Surrounded by 1000m hills, on the banks of the River Zeta, in the middle Bjelopavlici valley, it would have been a beautiful setting had it still not been pouring with rain.
Petar II Petrović Njegoš wanted it to replace the capital, Cetinje, but was trumped by the 1878 Congress of Berlin, which gave Montenegro possession of the far-grander cities of Nikšić, Podgorica and Bar.
Despite being dumped, Danilovgrad has survived as a dormitory town for the capital, Podgorica, 18km away.
This socialist realist monument featuring two lads and a staunch woman topped by a red star faces the river at the end of its main, pedestrian street, Ulica Baja Sekulića.
I was impressed by the town cemetry at the other end of the street as every grave I could see had fresh flowers on it, supplied by one of the half a dozen flower stalls adjacent to it. These and two cafes appeared to be the only shops open.もっと詳しく
