GLOBAL CITIZEN FORUMSVETI STEFAN 2017
Sveti Stefan, Montenegro
The islet of Sveti Stefan offered a trip back in time to a historic setting of cobblestoned streets, stone-walled buildings and dream-like courtyards. The fortified village dates back to the 15th century and transports visitors to a different age. Its pink-sand beaches, turquoise waters and orange rooftops complete the stunning setting.
