    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    This place is very historical, with very old city walls which are second biggest in the world. The hole city is basically a museum. We also have a historical salt plant, that was very important in the old days and still producing salt. There are lots of beaches and hidden places to see. The bay of Mali Ston is particulary beautiful. Historical city of Dubrovnik is 50 km away. National park Mljet is also very near.
