Kotor Bazaar

Kotor


Recently opened in the long-abandoned cloister of a Dominican monastery, this little market has stalls selling T-shirts, souvenirs and religious icons. In the back corner there's a little medieval 'museum', where for €3 you can pose with replica weapons and armour, or try your hand with a bow and arrow.
