Montenegro




Montenegro (meaning "Black Mountain" in Montenegrin) is a country located in Southeastern Europe. It has a coast on the Adriatic Sea to the south-west and is bordered by Croatia to the west, Bosnia and Herzegovina to the northwest, Serbia to the northeast, Kosovo to the east and Albania to the south. Its capital and largest city is Podgorica, while Cetinje is designated as the Prijestonica (Пријестоница), meaning the former Royal Capital City.


Thank you to Yelena to send this postcard during her vacation.

Isn't it great knowing other collectors? I just got a Montenegro card yesterday from a different vacationer! It's not a country from which I ever expect to receive a card.
