Located in the Marche region of Italy, the city of Ancona is located around 280 km to the north east of Rome and is situated on the Adriatic Sea coast between the slopes of two extremities of the promontory of Monte Conero, Monte Astagno and Monte Guasco. The city's port is popular with passenger traffic and is one of the main ports on the Adriatic Sea. There are many things to see and do in the city. The city's cathedral, Ancona Cathedral, is dedicated to Judas Cyriacus and was consecrated dating the 11th century and completed in 1189. The cathedral is characterised by its dodecagonal dome over the centre, which was altered by Margaritone d'Arezzo in 1270. The cathedral's exterior has a Gothic portal which is ascribed to Giorgio da Como (1228).
The city's port is popular for passengers travelling to countries surrounding the Adriatic Basin including Greece, Turkey, Croatia, Albania and Montenegro. Destinations available include Split, Rijeka, Zadar, Hvar, Dubrovnik, Bari, Patras and Igoumenitsa. Facilities in the port include a cafe, toilets and a small shop. There is also short term and long term parking available. There are also designated parking bays for disabled drivers.
The town and major seaport of Bar lies on the Adriatic Sea coast in the south of Montenegro. Bordered by Croatia to the west, Montenegro is located in south eastern Europe and also has Bosnia and Herzegovina to the north west, Serbia to the north east, Kosovo to the east and Albania to the south west. Popular visitor attractions in the town include the Stari Bar which is also called the Old Bar. Unlike the newer parts of the town, Stari Bar is not located close to the sea, but on a hill instead, and was constructed as a fortified city by the Illyrians. There are the remains of two churches inside Stari Bar which attract a lot of visitor attention. These are the 14th century church of St. Catherine and the 15th century church of St. Veneranda. Additionally visitors will also find the 13th century Church of St. Nikola and a large aqueduct that supplied water to the town.
The city is also known for its summer festival which is a popular event for the town and makes Bar an important destination and interesting place to visit in Montenegro.
