At dawn on a clear morning, the first rays of the sun peeked timidly through the light clouds, gently caressing the red tiled roofs of Dubrovnik's old town.

On the cobbled streets, merchants began to set up their benches, and the sweet aroma of fresh herbs wafted through the air, accompanied by the joyful laughter of the locals milling around the stone fountains. In the midst of this tumult of life, a tumult of excitement grew.

It was the day when Bugavi, a travel and technology enthusiast, decided to reveal the hidden magic of Dubrovnik in a completely new way.

She set up her ultra-modern drone on the central square, ready to film the medieval architectural treasures of the city from an unknown angle. The vessel hummed softly as curious locals gathered to witness the rare sight.

With an impatient heart, Bugawi pulled the lever and the drone rose into the sky with amazing grace. Then the old city appeared in a completely different light, as if a curtain had been lifted, revealing details that were not suspected from the ground. Huge ramparts, witnesses of centuries-old commotion, seemed to rise proudly, framing the city with their ancestral stones.

The domes of the churches sparkled under the first rays of the sun, and the smallest details of the sculptures on the facades came to life under the watchful eye of the drone. Bugavi skilfully glided the camera between majestic towers along historic walls, where every stone told a story of resilience and determination. Moving through winding streets, the drone suddenly found itself in competition with a group of nimble swallows.

Their graceful aerial dances seemed to defy the mechanical intruder as the latter attempted to emulate them in his own technological choreography.
As the competition intensified, Bugawi allowed herself to be captivated by the energy of this incredible dance between man, machine and nature. Her mind was in tune with the living history unfolding before his eyes, revealing the hidden treasures of Dubrovnik in a new light.

Busy streets turned into a mystical labyrinth, squares into spaces of timeless festivity, and defensive ramparts into eternal guardians of past greatness. As the sun reached its zenith, the harmony between the drone and the swallows seemed to crystallize into an ephemeral but unforgettable community.

Finally, when the drone smoothly landed in the central square, Bugavi realized that this unique experience went beyond a simple visual spectacle and became a living testimony of the very essence of Dubrovnik.

There is no better way to appreciate this city and its hidden beauty than by soaring high, flying with swallows to admire its medieval architectural treasures in a new light and making them dance in the air, in a magical symphony of past and present.

Your mom and you are always very beautiful place to share with us and it's very nice to see and also gain a lot of knowledge. This place is also very beautiful.

Thank you so much, we are working hard to make our blogs bright for people's eyes

Yeah great struggle.

I was really impressed by these photos of the old town. When you take pictures with a drone there is a new dimension that we are not used to. Superb, congrats!

Yea, that's exactly what I like in drones

Excellent work. I would single out the very beautiful center of Dubrovnik, Stradun, where I drank a lot of excellent coffee. Stradun is the most famous street in the old town of Dubrovnik. It dates from the 10th/11th century. century.

I want to emphasize that I changed the photo and it is not a reflection of the real situation, but in reality Stradun is even more beautiful.
