26 DUBROVNIK’S GAME OF THRONES

Often called the "Pearl of the Adriatic,"
Dubrovnik instantly transports you to a
different era. Known to millions as King's
Landing from the popular TV series “Game
of Thrones,” this Croatian city crowned
with distinctive red-tiled roofs is a lively
living museum.

56 THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING
“The mountains are calling and I must go” is what is
written on a sign in the lounge of my accommodation
in the SalzburgerLand, and what a calling it is for the
people who live in the mountainous region of this
part of Austria.

SWITZERLAND 007 STYLE
66 My husband and I arrive by train, sluicing

through mountain passes in deepening twi-
light, squinting through the darkness for a
glimpse of snow-capped peaks fringed by firs.
We could be extras in Alfred Hitchcock’s
Strangers on a Train or the latest adaptation of
Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express
