I took the Dubrovnik Cable Car in the evening, and it was easily one of the most breathtaking moments of my trip. As the cabin slowly climbed up Mount Srđ, the iconic red rooftops of the Old Town spread out below like a storybook. The golden hour cast a warm glow over the entire coastline, and by the time we reached the top, the city was bathed in that perfect, soft light that makes everything feel surreal. The panoramic view from the top? Absolutely stunning. The contrast of the ancient stone walls, sparkling sea, and little islands in the distance was like a live painting. I took my time up there, just soaking in the view, snapping photos, and watching as the sky turned pink, then indigo. It wasn’t just a cable car ride — it was a front-row seat to one of the best sunsets I’ve ever seen.
