What do travellers end up loving most about Montenegro?

Kotor Old Town and the Bay of Kotor viewed from above, with mountains behind.

Travellers often come for Kotor Bay and leave remembering the compression: fjord-like water, stone towns, sharp mountains, lake country and the feeling that several trips have been folded into one small place.

Answer

Montenegro’s best quality is not that it has one perfect sight. It is the way the scenery changes quickly without losing intensity. The bay gives the opening argument, with mountains dropping straight to the water. Then the country can turn into beaches, lake reeds, old royal roads, canyon country and alpine towns faster than expected. That variety is also the planning trap: it makes everything look close enough to collect. The travellers who leave happiest usually pick a few contrasts and let them land.
