Spared from modern buildings, cozy-luxury shops, fast food restaurants, souvenir shops, and everything else that accompanies modern life and tourism, Perast looks like time stopped into it. The traffic in the city is closed in the summer months so tourists can safely walk around and sightseeing in the town. Perast is a part of the municipality of Kotor and has been protected by UNESCO since 1979. It is a small place with one main street by the sea and 2 small islets in front with churches on them. The island's names are St George and Our Lady of the Rocks, which is why Perast is mostly known in the tourist world.
