Like a phoenix Dubrovnik, the Athens of the Adriatic, has risen from
virtual destruction after Slobodan Milosovic’s Serbian army devastated
the town in 1991. Seventy per cent of the homes were damaged from the
bombing. Even the ancient wall that surrounds the old city was pounded
by the tank shelling. Yet today Dubrovnik is a tourist destination. The
old city has been rebuilt. First-class hotels are a feature of the
hillside. This gem of a city is a living memorial to human resilience.
