Marvel at the magnificent Renaissance and Romanesque architecture, with vaulted roofs supported by columns and pillars of pink stone. Day 3: Budva to Dubrovnik, Croatia B After breakfast travel back to Dubrovnik. Today’s guided walk around the walled old town is a cultural and visual feast. Stroll along Stradun, the limestone- paved main pedestrian thoroughfare, which buzzes with bars, cafés and street performers before visiting the 14th century Franciscan Monastery at Stradun’s west end, which has a beautiful garden and Europe’s oldest working pharmacy.
