You pull out of Dubrovnik before the heat builds, the Adriatic fading behind limestone ridges as the road pushes inland toward Bosnia and Herzegovina. By midmorning the city opens into cobbled alleys and the sharp silhouette of Stari Most, the 16th‑century Ottoman bridge that arcs over the Neretva like a handclasp between past and present.
