峽灣美景 X 科托古城牆 Ancient City Wall in Kotor

科托全景 Panoramic view of Kotor

科托是黑山共和國的一個小城市，想當初我到以為黑山是小國，可能也是一個偏門的旅遊地點，可是我錯了。原來科托古城已被孤獨星球評為最適合旅遊的其中一個城市，難怪剛到埗古城便已人頭擁擁，遊人絡繹不絕，港口那邊還停泊了一艘大郵輪，看來是剛有旅遊團到達觀光呢。

Kotor is a coastal city in The Republic of Montenegro, where is a popular place for vacations nowadays. I was shocked by the crowd of tourists when I arrived at the city. Cruises always stayed and brought numerous tourists here.

這天我趁天空放晴，決定先到爬上古城後山的城牆，從高處欣賞這個美麗古城。古城的橫街小巷很多，建築外表也是差不多，在這邊真的很容易就會迷路。經過古城的一些教堂及古建築後，來到了城牆的入口，看上去沒有想像中容易呢。

Today I took the chance of the nice weather to climb up the ancient city wall located on the hilltop near the old town. The old town was like a maze to me as the pathway was such narrow and looks similar. I was finding my ways for almost half an hour in the small town to get to the entrance of the ancient city wall.

科托古城城牆依險要的山勢而建，所以也有不少人拿它跟中國的萬里長城相比壯觀，我沒去過長城，但這個城牆也已足夠震撼我。站在山腳處看上去，也甚覺山勢莊觀。

The ancient wall was built along the mountain which was located behind the city. It was like the mini version of the Great Wall but still amazing.

城牆歷史悠久，也沒有太多人為的維護，所以路況真的不算好行。沿途都是小石子跟塌了部分的梯級，加上今天天氣實在太好，陽光猛烈，走起來真的好累人。

The path to climb up the wall was not easy. There were lots of small stones and damaged staircases when I walked up. And the sunny day was killing me as well.

雖然是走得辛苦了，但每當我爬上一點再回頭看看，就可欣賞到古城不同角度的全貌，愈高愈莊麗，這也是一種無形動力，讓我繼續往山頂出發。

Though it was hard to climb up in the sunny day but it did paid off. The view of the old town from the high ground was amazing and it made me to keep on to reach to the hilltop!

爬了好一陣子，終於來到了一座小教堂，這邊的小平台景觀開揚，面向著科托灣，景色美不勝收。於這邊我可以坐坐休息一下，也可以進到教堂參觀，反正就是讓我躲避這烤人的太陽。休息過後，本想再上路攻頂，可這天天氣實在太熱，在中暑的徵狀出現後，我也只好打道回府，但這美景卻也深深刻在我腦海中。

Finally I reached the midpoint of the journey. There was a small church and I could enjoy the breathtaking view form the platform here. I was trying to continue to climb up but seem I was sick from the hot weather thus I needed to say goodbye to the beautiful scenery here.

但科托之旅尚未結束，下回再帶大家去玩!

The journey in Kotor was not yet over, please be patient for the second part :)
