Jacques Cousteau >>> Famous Explorer/Biologist
" The part of the Adriatic Coast belonging to Montenegro is the purest part of the Mediterranean"
Ljubomir Nenadovic
"I want to tell you something about Lovcen, about a beautiful Montenegrin hill. The first thing that emerges in front of you, that is it; the first spoken Montenegrin word is its name; the first step on the Montenegrin soil is the stone of the Lovcen mountain. Wherever you go, you can see it; it is a polar star for Montenegrins."
"And I wonder how sun can go downwhen this beauty elsewhere cannot be found."
" I wonder why the sun wants to set, when this much beauty it has nowhere met. "
Kurt Hasert German Geographer
"The whole Montenegro was lying in front of us like on a relief map. The sun was playing quietly with waves of Boka, the surface of the Skadar lake was glittering there, and the blue Adriatic was fading on the horizon. In the wild luxury, the Albanian Alps and the coastal mountain Rumija were rising. The eyes were roaming through enduring series of mountain chains and valleys, while in the background, the snowy crests of the Durmitor and Komovi mountains were sending their last regards. Podgorica was ascending from the green valley. I could not take my eyes off that beautiful sight."
Professor Nolt
" Never in my life have I stayed in a place lit by so many stars as Ulcinj."
Mr Boyd
" God created the world within six days, and the seventh, in no haste, he created this fjord below Mount Lovcen. "
Zulfikar Dzumhur
" Here everthing lives of the sun, because of the sun, for the sun."
" Here under the azure dome of the sky everything blossoms and ripens in the sunshine. The poet might say: "Here one lives from sunshine, because of sunshine, for sunshine... That is why I came and stayed in this town."
Aleksa Santic
" Our dear Boka, Adriatic's bride. Droped with the sky like with silk blue, Prettier than any Nereid are you, Upon you beauty you should yourself pride."
Claudia Schiffer Model
"Montenegro is a lovely country for a holiday."
R. Lonatti
"I have seen scenic beauties on all continents, but sunshine such as this I have seen nowhere."
Nicolo Carnimeo Italian Writer
" In spring or Autumn, the most beautiful seasons throughout Montenegro, the city (Kotor) is held spellbound while the sun slips minute by minute down the jagged face of rock, bathing granite and marble in a honeyglowed."
Mrs Will Gordon Scottisch Traveller/ Writster
" The storm-proof roof of europe" on seeing cetinje.
Mrs Edith Durham, English Traveller/Writster
"a scene so magnificent and so impressive that it is worth all the journey from England just to have looked at it."
A den Doolaard
Didn't the old legend told, when god had created the earth, he flown over it with 3 bags who carried earth, seeds, and rocks. Every country got his share. Untill the devil suddenly appeared and cutted the bag filled with rocks. The country were the rocks were tumbling on would be known as Montenegro."
"Just as if I have returned to town from the most beautiful fairytale of my childhood."
(Sophia Lauren, Italian film star) on beeing in sv stefan
Am I on Paradise or on the Moon?
(George Bernard Shaw, his impressions during his visit to Lovcen)
