[Breathtaking view🇲🇪] The jewel of the Adriatic, Our Lady of the Rocks⛪️

#tripOverseas travel

To Our Lady of the Rocks, a breathtakingly beautiful island floating in the Adriatic Sea!
Located in the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro, this artificial island was built by the faith and efforts of the local people. 🏝😳
According to legend, in the 15th century, a fisherman discovered an icon of the Virgin Mary at sea, and vowed to build a church on this land. 👀
Since then, over the centuries, local people have carried stones and expanded the island little by little. 🏝
There is a beautiful Church of the Virgin Mary on the island, and inside it are precious religious art pieces on display. ✨️
The view from the island is also spectacular, and you can see the beautiful scenery of Kotor Bay. 📸 St. George Island, located opposite, is an island with a monastery and tourists cannot land there. 🙅♀️ It is about a 5-minute boat ride from Perast. 🫶
