Rijeka Crnojevica bridge

Rijeka Crnojevića, Montenegro

Rijeka Crnojevića bridge (also known as Danilo's bridge) spans the Crnojević River and is one of the most important historical monuments and tourist attractions in the region of Cetinje.

The bridge was built in 1853, by the Montenegrin Prince Danilo, who erected the bridge in memory of his father Stanko Petrović. On the left side of the river, next to the bridge, Danilo I also built a one-storey house, popularly called Mostina.

Nice old bridge.

Nice village by the lake. Unfortunately our experience was ruined by a crazy dog owner whose dog was let out of the house into public property and almost attacked us. Beware if you walk over the bridge and try to walk up to the church at the top of the hill. I’m sharing the location on the screenshot, she looked out the window and didn’t even bother to come out of the house to get her vicious dog.

The landscape of the bridge was great. However, road to this place was very hard and dangerous. I didn't expect such a narrow road for 2 ways on the mountain without any bump stops. If you decide getting there - make sure you have enough time till the sunset. It was a big area near, so you can hangout with your friends. Of course, you want to see great panorama of the river few kilometers further. But be careful.

Rosenborg Castle

Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.

The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.

Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
