The name itself Kanli kula is of Turkish origin and it means a bloody tower. It is situated in the north part of the old town in Herceg Novi. With its size and position the tower dominates over the town (the height is 85 meters above the sea level). Kanli kula in fact used to be a complex fortification system. In the written documents Kanli kula is mentioned for the first time in XVII century. Over the time it suffered significant changes and destructions, so the exact time of its construction can not be determined precisely. The final shape the tower got during the time of Turkish reign while the Venetians, immediately after taking over Herceg Novi, made some remodeling. Today Kanli kula is mostly used as a summer stage.

Take a boat that takes you to Zanjice beach. There's plenty of boats going there, price is around 5-6 eur for the return trip. You won't regret it.
If you're of adventurous kind, once at Zanjice, take a road to Miriste. There is a fine restaurant there with fresh fish and you can walk all the way to the Arza fortress. You can climb on top of it and the view is spectacular.

The clock tower, built in 1667, is Herceg Novi's most famous piece of architecture. It rises above a gate in the old city walls at the top of a flight of stairs rising up from the main square in the old part of the town.

The church of the Archangel Michael is a small orthodox church that sits in the middle of Belvista Square (also known as Herceg Stijepan) in the old section of Herceg Novi. The church was only built a little over 100 years ago, but looks older due to its classical architecture.

The town is spread from the seashore up to the hills To explore it you will have to use numerous old, narrow, romantique staircases. Some of them are very steep so it can be pretty tough to climb. Comfortable shoes are the must if you want to have a proper look around.

Actualy the gates don’t look very impressive but they can show you the borders of the old town. They are the parts of the medieval fortification walls. This one can be reach from Herceg Stjepan Square. The other pictures shows the gate on the south of the old town.

Former Train Station is an old building bought and renovated by our (and world) famous film director Emir Kusturica. It is now the place with 3 cinemas (with more than 200 seats), art galery and it has a nice caffe . In fact , it is ment to be an independet cultural center. The Center was recently opened with a projection of the movie " All invisible children" made by 7 world famous film directors under the patronage of the UNICEF. I am not sure if the title of the movie is like it in original, I used a free translation :)

This is the main promenade. It goes alongside the sea all the way from old H. Novi to Igalo. It is about 7 km long. You won't be bored since it is full of restorants, caffes and, of course, people doing the same thing you do.

The Church is rather small inside. The marbel iconostasis dominate the interior. The Icons date from 20th century. The church keeps some Icons from other places as well as some old printed books from Russia.

Yes, this place really exists on Earth. This is a place you can reach only by boat. You have to wait for a wave to enter the place, and watch your head!
