Dubrovnik
City-monument,
the most beautiful and the most famous Croatian city. Once a famous
Dubrovnik Republic, the city was a powerful rival of Venice in the fight
over the sea rule. Today it still continues to rival Venice with its
beauty and charming atmosphere. It would be really hard to single out
the most fascinating piece of architecture.
The Franciscan and the Dominican
monastery, the Cathedral, the Rector's Palace, Stradun, grand City walls
and St. Blaise's Church, each of these impressive buildings deserves
attention and admiration.
Cavtat
Only
20 kilometers more south from Dubrovnik centre, on the Dubrovnik Riviera,
a picturesque town called Cavtat is one of the most popular resorts
for a classical holiday or a successful meeting. In the ancient times,
Cavtat was a Greek settlement known as Epidaurum, so its cultural life
and historical tradition is thereby enriched.
Among the attractions
of Cavtat are the Rector's Palace, the Baroque church of St. Nikola,
the Franciscan monestery, the Bogišić's scientific collection, the Vlaho
Bukovac Art Gallery, the Račić Mausoleum, designed by a famous Croatian
sculptor Ivan Meštrović, archaeological sites of the pre-Slav period,
city walls, the Šipun cave etc. Cavtat also offers a 7 km promenade
by pine forests paths only a few meters from the sea.
Korčula island
A
historical town of Korčula is known as the birthplace of a famous seafarer
Marco Polo. The town will fascinate you with the beautiful historical
core, narrow stone streets, museums and churches.
Korčula is the town of a long-cherished cultural heritage and one of
the most visited destinations on the Adriatic coast. It is famous for
