Perast is a town in Coastal region of Montenegro. It is situated a few kilometres northwest of Kotor and is noted for its proximity to the islets of St. George and Our Lady of the Rocks Described as a small Venice, Perast dazzles on the turquoise Adriatic Sea in the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro. Perast is situated at the bottom of the St. Elijah Hill and facing two small islets in the Adriatic Sea. The extraordinarily rich cultural heritage of this small town shines through a number of historic sites built in white stone. Splendid baroque palaces reflect the golden age of the town from the 17th to 18th Century. Due to its important strategic location, Perast had several defense points, most importantly the fortress of St. Cross, settled on a hill above the town.
