Dubrovnik Makes Lonely Planet’s Ultimate Travel List

The largest travel guide-book publisher in the world, Lonely Planet, has named Dubrovnik on its Ultimate Travel list…

Dubrovnik was named in 22nd spot on the Ultimate travel list: Lonely Planet’s top sights in the world, which will go into print shortly.

As the setting for King’s Landing in Game of Thrones, Dubrovnik’s fortifications are often splattered with stage blood. Should the camera ever pan back, you’d witness a headland jutting into the blue Adriatic, towers rising over masts of anchored ships and green Dalmatian islands. Explore Europe’s most handsome ramparts – built from the 12th to 17th centuries and never breached – on the circular walking route – writes Lonely Planet.

The list, which you can check out here, features sights such as the salt flats of Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni, Machu Picchu, Taj Mahal, Great Wall of China, Colosseum and Australia’s coral reef.
