ON THIS DAY – Snow fairytale in Dubrovnik

Written by  Jan 11, 2018

With temperatures a "balmy" 15 °C in the last couple of days, it's hard to imagine that exactly a year ago Dubrovnik woke up covered with snow. January 11th 2017 turned out to be a true winter fairytale.

Snow is unusual sight around here so everybody were enchanted with the famous red roofs being completely white. It felt like the whole city stopped for one day, slowed down and turned into the magical place. Children were sledging all around – even on baking trays!

Before last year the last time that snow fell in Dubrovnik was in 2009 and the coldest recorded temperature in Dubrovnik was in January 1968 when thermometers dropped to – 6.6 degrees.

Check out photos and video made exactly a year ago.
