Winter in Montenegro

Over the past couple of weeks the sharp cold spell which has hit the whole of Europe has caught Montenegro as well. Of course it was not unexpected in the north of the country for this time of year, and the exceptional amount of snow was very welcome in the winter sports centre in Durmitor and Bjelasica. But in the South almost inconceivable things have happened. The main city Podgorica has been covered by snow for days and it has almost reached the coast. Podgorica, the municipal building

The old capital city Cetinje is certainly the champion; during just one night about a meter of snow fell.
