About Tivat City Park

Tivat City Park began with the exotic plants that the town’s seafarers brought home from voyages around the world. It was laid out in 1892, under Austro-Hungarian rule, on land of the Radalli and Verona families from Kotor, and has been a nature reserve since 1968 and a natural monument since 2015. Today Aleppo and maritime pines, eucalyptus, magnolias and cypresses, some up to 130 years old and 25 metres tall, shade the paths around a fish pond and fountain. A walk here is the perfect midday break in summer.
