Provincial Museum: 3. Fly from Belgrade to Titograd (75 minutes), lunch in the excellent Hotel Crna Gora (meaning Montenegro) and, since there's nothing to see in this war-ruined, now resurrected town, hire a car and driver through the hotel or, more safely, by advance arrangement with Putnik in Belgrade, for the long and rocky ride to Cetinjc, the sleepy former capital of the Principality of Montenegro. It will be a bit costly but will save a lot of time and bus bumps. Linger an hour or so in Cetinje to see the St. Peter Monastery; the former Palace of Prince Nicholas, now a provincial museum; and the Mansion of the Montenegrin nobleman-poet, Petar Petrovic Njegos, now an interesting ethnographical museum.
