Feast of St Dominic in Vittoriosa will display St Thomas Aquinas relic, for which Pope Francis has granted ‘plenary indulgence’ on sins for participants in Aquinas celebrations
The Pile and Ploce Gates, the two entrances into Dubrovnik’s Old Town, once had drawbridges that lifted during the overnight hours, forcing visitors wanting to enter to wait outside its stone walls until morning. The bridges no longer lift, yet the bottlenecks of morning visitors remain.
Visitors can get through the stone gates of this medieval city and meander through its cobbled streets without logjams, even in the high season. They can also get far from fellow travelers with easy jaunts to nearby islands.
