DUBROVNIK |

by thick walls and towers, Dubrovnik is the most precious
jewel of the Adriatic coast. The Old town – Dubrovnik
is, at the same time, a treasure trove of architecture,
as well as a work of art that has been kept and preserved
jealously for centuries. For the same reasons, Dubrovnik

oldest pharmacy, an impressive, 2 kilometers long, city

SOLIN - KLIS - TROGIR |
Ancient
Roman Salona is the largest archeological site of Roman
and Early Christian ruins in Croatia. At the time of
Salona's greatest prosperity (3rd and 4th century),
it had 40,000 inhabitants, while Split did not even
exist. Archeologists have excavated remains of temples,
amphitheatres, early Christian churches, burial grounds
and baths. We can certainly say that this is the most
important excavation sight from the Roman times in Croatia.
Klis is a village in central Dalmatia, located close
to Split. It is known for its famous fortress that used
to be a symbol of Croatian resistance, during the time
of Turkish breach. In 9th century, Klis was headquarter
of Croatian’s dukes and kings, so was considered as
the capital of Croatia. We continue towards Trogir,
a small town, under the protection of UNESCO. Trogir
was on the site of a former Greek settlement of Tragurion,
that exalts us today with its historical monuments which
stand there like an evidence of its rich past. One of
the most important monuments, that we shall visit, are
the St. Lawrence Cathedral with its famous portal, made
by local master Radovan, City Loggia, Ćipiko palace
and the Town Hall. |

CITY OF MOSTAR |
The
city of Mostar is situated in a beautiful valley bedded
between high mountains of Herzegovina. It is thanks
to the river Neretva that Mostar was able to develop
as a city in the desert-like landscape of Herzegovina.
Neretva’s size turned Mostar very early in to a trading
centre of the region. What makes this city known is
it’s famous bridge. The Old Bridge was built by the
Ottoman empire in 1565. It was the great architect Mimar
Hajrudin who had succeded with the impossible mission
to cross the Neretva river with a single span stone
bridge.
Mostar got its name after that same Bridge, or more
precisely after the bridge keepers. They used to guard
the bridge and were called "Mostari", thereby
the city got its name. Mostar’s population in 2003 was
105,448. With its hot summers and mild winters, Mostar
is also one of Europe’s sunniest cities. |
