Konavle region

At the far south of Dubrovnik region and the Croatian soil 18 km (12 miles) away from Dubrovnik, the fertile land of Konavle valley is found surrounded by the wreath of hills, mounds, and hillocks. Thirty picturesque villages found their place in the karst land with peculiar vegetation that grows on the rock itself. Lush pine trees, cypresses, olive trees, and many sorts of underbrush grow there among the vineyards.
