The sea and lake shores are connected by a unique Panoramic route. When you get to know the charms of the sea and the lake area, you will see why many, who were passing this way, characterized Bar as a town on two magical shores.

Near Ostros are the remains of the monastery complex Prečista Krajinska, one of the oldest monuments in Montenegro. The monastery was first mentioned in the literary work ‘’Chronicle of the Priest of Duklja’’. In the 11th century, Krajina is mentioned as the capital where the court of Prince Vladimir, the protector of today’s Bar, is located.
