Cheap flights to Podgorica

Podgorica overview

A flight to Podgorica will connect you with the largest city of Montenegro, which is a lively city with a reputation for vibrant nightlife and welcoming locals. The city has a handful of quirky sights and some picturesque parks and picnic locations which are a perfect way to escape the hustle and bustle. Most of Podgorica was destroyed during the Second World War but the new city has an enormous selection of trendy cafes and restaurants that line the attractive squares. Dating from the 10th century, the beautiful St. George’s church can be found at the foot of Gorica hill (after which the city was named). The church holds a treasure trove of icons from the 19th century in addition to a charming atmosphere and a scenic location near the city’s football stadium. The city’s most famous landmark is arguably the Millennium Bridge which is a 459 ft (140 m) long structure that offers pleasant views of the river and the city itself. Flowing through the heart of the city is the spectacular Moraca River, which is one of Europe’s best kept secrets. Tourists can follow the line of the river from Podgorica to the Montenegrin hinterland through a spectacular valley with unspoilt forests and mountains. Perhaps Podgorica’s most charming attraction is the city’s friendly people; because international tourism is a relatively new phenomenon in Montenegro the locals will always go above and beyond to ensure that you receive outstanding service.
