“人間天堂”！英國文豪蕭伯納造訪今日黑山共合國的Perast後，不禁如此感歎。藏在安德列海灣中的海灣裡，Perast 像是童話故事裡的仙境。有城堡、清澈見底的湖水、挺拔的山壁。非常值得身歷其境一遊。

"Pearl of the Adriatic", Perast is how Lord Byron referred to it. He also described to be the most beautiful enconter between the mountains and the sea. "Paradise on earth" is George Bernard Shaw's term for Perast. In fact, such stunning scenery can hardly be reduced to mere words. Hidden inside complicated bay within a bay, Perast just like taken from a fairy tale, is easily forgotten by the outside world. Kotor, nearby, used to be a palace constructed in the 10th century by the Venetians with a church perched high up on the mountainn within the fortress wall.
Two small islands off Perast are situated in the center of the waters, one being a monastery and the other a castle. The water is so clean that one can see fish swimming busily as one enjoys breakfast outdoors by the water as the refreshing breeze caressed our face from the lake-like sea. Behind Perast and Kotor is a steep limestone cliff that takes 25 switchbacks to drive up to the top of the mountians at Lovcen where an Alpine landform opens up.
