Trsteno is 30 km far from Dubrovnik.  It is known for “Arboretum Trsteno”, a magnificent botanic garden, started 500 years ago by family Gucetic, planted in wonderful Mediterranean surrounding. The Arboretum reserves a very special place among the old Ragusan, Dalmatian and Mediterranean parks due to its five century long continuous development from Gothic Renaissance, Renaissance Baroque and Romantic forms to the present. It includes a Gothic Renaissance park surrounding the fifteenth century summer residence, which is a monument of garden architecture, and the nineteenth century neoromantic park at Drvarica.
