Boka Bay, the beauty of the Adriatic is the southernmost fjord in Europe and one of the deepest bays in the world.novirednoviredThe rich Montenegrin tradition preserved by authentic islands, Venetian buildings that defy time and the cheerful spirit of the local population, rank it among the 20 most beautiful bays in the world. There are four municipalities in the Bay of Kotor, headed by the magnificent Kotor, located under the steep cliffs of Lovćen and Orjen mountains. Its old town - the port, surrounded by walls, is under UNESCO protection.

Njegoš's mausoleum is located at the very top of the Lovćen mountain, more precisely at 1660 meters above sea level, on Jezerski vrh. The mausoleum was built as the eternal house of Peter II Petrović Njegoš. Njegoš was the ruler of Montenegro, a poet, a bishop and the embodiment of an extremely brave man who wanted to free his people from slavery and elevate them economically, socially, culturally and spiritually. Bishop often went to Lovćen to observe the beautiful Boka from the top of the mountain, from where one of the most beautiful views of the bride of the Adriatic opens. Since he was a very wise man, Njegoš requested that his eternal house be on the second highest peak of Lovcen, and that the highest peak be left as the eternal resting place of a greater ruler of Montenegro than he himself was. It would be done that way, and the highest peak of Lovcen is still waiting for that master, better than Njegoš, who will rest there.novirednovirednovirednoviredPrimarily, a chapel was built here by order of Njegoš, where he wanted to rest. The chapel was demolished in the First World War (January 1916) and was rebuilt by King Aleksandar Karađorđević in 1925. After the Second World War, the newly formed government in Montenegro demolished the chapel and erected a mausoleum instead of the church.novirednovirednovirednoviredThe famous sculptor Ivan Meštrović made a sketch of the mausoleum, and it is said that he never lived to see his work on top of the mountain. There are various stories about how much Ivan Meštrović was paid for the design of the mausoleum. According to many sources, this was one of the most expensive projects in Yugoslavia at the time.novirednoviredThe mausoleum was opened in 1970, because the construction was halted for a while. Njegoš was originally buried in the Cetinje Monastery, until the completion of the mausoleum. A narrow road for cars (from the village of Njeguši) and exactly 461 steps lead to the top of the mausoleum, which represents the number of verses in Njegoš's famous literary work "Mountain Wreath".
