To Dubrovnik, Croatia 前往杜布罗夫尼克, 克罗地亚
April 22, 2026
We opted to take the five-hour ferry from Split to Dubrovnik instead of the bus. The ferry sailed between islands and made several stops along the way. Unfortunately, the weather was poor and the ride turned quite rough. A few passengers became seasick. We managed fine, though another hour or two at sea might have changed that.
After arriving at Dubrovnik Port, we called an Uber to our accommodation. At the port, the driver asked whether our destination was inside or outside the Old Town walls. Our rental was located just outside the city walls. In the end, he dropped us off about 400 meters away because he did not have a permit to drive farther. Fortunately, it was all downhill. Still, it felt dishonest — he probably should not have accepted the ride, or Uber should not have allowed it. The good thing was that we learned how the access restrictions worked and were better prepared later when another driver from a neighboring country picked us up.
The place we stayed was in a 17th-century building just outside the walls. It had an incredible view, and the hosts were exceptionally kind. They had stocked the refrigerator with basic groceries, from milk to bread. It was the first time we had experienced this level of hospitality — far beyond our expectations.
After settling in, we walked down the long staircase toward Pile Gate. The first thing we did was purchase a three-day Dubrovnik Pass, which included the city walls, museums, and public transportation.
We then visited the Rector’s Palace, one of Dubrovnik’s most important historic buildings. It once served as the seat of government of the Republic of Ragusa and the residence of the Rector.
Later, we went to a Michelin-recommended restaurant for traditional Croatian cuisine. The meal was deeply satisfying.
After dinner, we headed to Buža Bar, perched on the cliffs outside the city walls. Although the sun was off to the side, the cliffside views over the Adriatic were still spectacular. Dubrovnik immediately proved worthy of its reputation.

一早在旅馆用完早餐，便走去不远处的码头。我们选择搭乘五小时的渡轮从斯普利特（Split）前往克罗地亚最著名的城市——杜布罗夫尼克（Dubrovnik），而不是坐巴士。渡轮一路穿行于岛屿之间，并在途中停靠了几个小港口。可惜天气不好，海面颠簸得相当厉害，不少乘客都晕船了。船上工作人员相当负责，不停地来回查看，看见有乘客不舒服会递上一瓶水。我们还算撑得住，不过如果再多航行一两个小时，情况可能就不一样了。
抵达杜布罗夫尼克港（Dubrovnik Port）后，我们六人叫了二辆Uber 前往住宿地点。Connie她们三人的Uber非常顺利，直接在租房的街边把她们放下。而我叫的司机在港口时先问我们目的地是在老城墙内还是外。我们租住的地方位于城墙外不远处。结果他因为没有许可继续往前开，只把我们放在离住宿约四百米的地方。幸好一路都是下坡，拖着行李还算轻松。不过这件事多少让人觉得不太诚实——他其实不应该接这单，或者 Uber 平台本身就不该允许这样的接单。好的一面是，我们因此提前了解了老城区周边的交通限制，几天后另一位来自邻国的司机来接我们时，我们就更有经验了。
我们租的房子是一栋建于17世纪的独立的老建筑，就在城墙外侧，视野极佳。我们把整栋房子租下，房东人也特别热情贴心，冰箱里提前准备好了牛奶、果汁和水。厨房里放了面包等基本食物，各种咖啡应有尽有。房子虽老，但里面装修的很舒适。花园里种满了各种果树，桔子，橙子，柠檬和枇杷。还有一个观景阳台，老城城楼和海近在咫尺。这是我们第一次遇到如此超出预期的住宿体验，令人印象深刻。
安顿下来后，我们沿着长长的石阶一路向下，前往派勒门（Pile Gate）。第一件事，就是购买了三天有效的杜布罗夫尼克通票（Dubrovnik Pass），其中包含城墙、博物馆以及公共交通。
随后我们参观了总督府（Rector’s Palace）。这是杜布罗夫尼克最重要的历史建筑之一，曾经是拉古萨共和国（Republic of Ragusa）的政府所在地，也是总督的官邸。
晚餐我们来到一家米其林推荐餐厅，品尝传统克罗地亚料理，整顿晚餐令人十分满足。
之后我们前往位于城墙外悬崖边的布扎酒吧（Buža Bar）看日落。虽然太阳偏向侧面，但亚得里亚海（Adriatic Sea）边的悬崖景色依然惊艳。杜布罗夫尼克的美果然名不虚传，而杜布罗夫尼克的上上下下的台阶则让人腿脚发软。
