Kotor is situated in a most secluded part of Boka Kotorska (Kotor bay), in the northern part of the Montenegro coast. It has developed around old town, the city's best known landmark, and one listed with UNESCO World heritage sites. The bay is the deepest natural fjord in the Mediterranean Sea, and the scenery around it (including the steep mountains which come almost to the waterfront) is spectacular.
Kotor (Montenegrin: Котор / Kotor; Latin: Acruvium; Greek: Ασκρήβιον - Askrèvion; Italian: Càttaro) after which the whole bay has been named. The town was an Ancient Greek colony called Ασκρήβιον - Askrèvion. Greek colonists were established in the region on the 3rd century BC. In the 7th century AD the Byzantines founded the old town of Kotor.
