Trsteno is located 24 kilometers to the northwest from Dubrovnik, and it is one of the most beautiful places in the Dubrovnik area. It got its name after sedges that grow here (sedge = Tstika in Croatian).  There are two old plane trees in Trsteno, and those trees are 400 years old. There are also Reneissance and Baroque houses, and along the seaside there is a well known villa of the family of Nikola Nerdelija.  Ivan Gučetić built this villa with alleys, paths and numerous trees and various plants from all over the world. Walls are ornated with family portraits. In Trsteno there is also a Baroque tap with Neptun and nymphs.
