There are two airports in the country: in the capital, Podgorica, and in Tivat. The drive from Podgorica to the coast is a bit longer, but the distances are almost irrelevant.<\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/78020fa52346a7be564fce12161066c8.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><br clear=\"all\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Here are the plums ripe.

Whether it is because of their common Orthodox faith or the similarity of their languages, Montenegrins have a friendly attitude towards Russians. Many here can speak Russian - I saw taxi drivers, salespeople, and even locals who spoke Russian fluently. As for English, it seemed to me that things are worse here. For example, Jeff, the owner of the villa we rented, spoke excellent German, but he could not put two words together in English - we communicated with him exclusively based on the similarity of Russian and Serbian.<\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/6e787e6a8a356c5ce539229bf5b68a90.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><br clear=\"all\"\/><\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/112ead0a5e11cf0950cb3b3152447586.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><br clear=\"all\"\/><\/p>\n<p>I&#039;m not a picky eater, so it&#039;s difficult for me to objectively evaluate the taste of Montenegrin food. But dishes made with fresh shrimp, crayfish, and shellfish certainly left a lasting impression on my taste buds. The proximity of the Adriatic Sea meant that Montenegrins excel at seafood. Baked fish, grilled squid, and fish soup\u2014they&#039;re all experts here. Of the national delicacies recommended to me, the intricately prepared pork called &quot;pr\u0161ut&quot; didn&#039;t impress me much\u2014I guess I was expecting more. But you should definitely try it.<\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/58cee5c28b841f50f2debd46a5137490.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><br clear=\"all\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Montenegro&#039;s beaches are internationally recognized as the best on the Adriatic coast. There are more than a hundred of them in the country, including the famous 12-kilometer beach &quot;Velika Plaza&quot; in Ulcinj.
