If you are looking for an escape from the crowds of Dubrovnik, head to the village of Trsteno, just twenty kilometers away. If you rent accommodation in Dubrovnik, the Trsteno Arboretum could easily become your favorite destination. This Renaissance garden has been enchanting visitors since the late 15th century. Shaded by centuries-old trees, it hides winding paths, fountains, and pavilions surrounded by exotic plants brought back by seafarers from all over the world. From its terraces, you can enjoy endless views of the Elaphiti Islands, where history, nature, and the sea blend into an unforgettable experience. The Trsteno Arboretum is the most significant preserved example of an architectural-landscape complex and country estate culture in Adriatic Croatia. The site also hosts numerous educational programs for visitors. More information: https://www.pvdp.hr/hr/arboretum-trsteno/o-arboretumu.
