Southern Dalmatia - holiday apartments and houses South Dalmatia is with 1.782 sq km and 123.000 residents the smallest region of Croatia. Nevertheless, the area attracts many tourists, because South Dalmatia has unique towns, villages and islands, mild climate, Mediterranean vegetation and beautiful scenery to offer. The most beautiful jewel of Croatia’s cultural heritage, the old city of Dubrovnik, is located in the southern- most part of the sunniest Croatian tourist region. It comprises one county, the County of Dubrovnik-Neretva, which extends almost entirely along the shore. Here is Dubrovnik the most beautiful and the most important, but by no means the only, cultural gem. Also in this part of Croatia is the island of Korcula - the home of Marco Polo - the green islands of Mljet, Lastovo and the Elafiti with their picturesque settlements; the Peljesac peninsula, with its vineyards and the especially fine houses built by sea captains; the magical Konavle valley; the fertile River Neretva delta. The area of south Dalmatia underwent a quite distinct historical development, for it was here, in the period between the 13th and 18th centuries, that Croatian culture and art flourished, while the remainder of Dalmatia was under foreign rule. It reached its zenith in the 16th century, when the power of the famous Dubrovnik Republic was at its mightiest. The vista of the old city of Dubrovnik, approached from the route way above the sea, from the direction of Dubrovnik airport, is one of the best known panoramas of Croatia and of the whole of the Mediterranean area. Indeed, the first sentence of the description of Dubrovnik in the UNESCO List of World Cultural Heritage begins with words: “Pearl of the Adriatic on the Dalmatian coast...”, for few are the cities which enjoy such a wonderful position on a rocky shoreline above the sea, and few are the places where Medieval stone walls and fortresses are so well preserved. The surroundings of Dubrovnik do not abound in monumental buildings, but those that are there have been superbly blended into the greenery of the environment, particularly in the southernmost corner of Croatia, the fertile valley of Konavle. The geographical position of this area, bordered by high mountains, has ensured that the Croatian national identity within it has remained particularly strong. This is demonstrated by, among other things, the preservation of folk costumes and the traditional architectural heritage, such as the Konavoski dvori (Konavle House) at the source of the small River Ljuta. The ethnographic treasures of Konavle are kept in the Ethnographic Museum in Cilipi. The most southern part of Konavle, and of the entire Croatian mainland, is the tiny peninsula of Prevlaka, whose significance lies in its strategic position of control over the entrance into Boka kotorska Bay in neighbouring Montenegro, which is why Prevlaka is still dominated by a monumental fortress. The central settlement in Konavle is the picturesque town of Cavtat, birth place of the great Croatia painter Vlaho Bukovac. His parental home has been transformed into a gallery of his paintings. The second treasured adornment of Cavtat is the Racic Family Mausoleum dating from 1921, the work of the Croatian sculptor, Ivan Mestrovic. Extending west of the city is the Dubrovnik littoral, famous for the summer houses of its most illustrious citizens. On one such estate, in the lovely village of Trsteno, the most beautiful arboretum in Croatia has been cultivated. Growing in a relatively small area is a wide variety of subtropical plants, flowers and trees. The entire arboretum has been conceived as a landscaped park with sculptures, the best-known among them being a statue of the Greek god Poseidon, standing in front of a lovely fountain. Throughout the arboretum rest places have been arranged from whence one can enjoy views of the open sea. Still further west is, nature-wise, the most special part of the Dubrovnik region: The River Neretva Delta, with preserved wetland landscapes and picturesque places like the old town of Opuzen. Where once stood ancient Narona, today is the village of Vid, adorned by a statue of Prince Domagoj’s Archers, defenders of Croatian independence in the early middle Ages. Setting sail from the Dubrovnik littoral towards the island of Korcula the route takes us past the wine-growing Peljesac peninsula. The old centre of the peninsula is the small and lovely town of Ston sitting on the isthmus joining the peninsula to the mainland. Stretching between Ston and neighbouring Mali Ston (Little Ston), renowned for its cultivation of oysters, are the impressive defensive walls, with partially preserved remnants of old fortresses. In the western part of Peljesac is Orebic, its largest settlement, famous for being a centre of sea captains. The strong maritime tradition of Orebic is demonstrated by two collections: one in the Maritime Museum, and the other as part of the holdings of the Franciscan monastery on the hill above the town. From this vantage point, next to the church of Our Lady of Angels, one can enjoy unforgettable views of the Peljesac channel, Korcula and other islands. Korcula, the largest island in south Dalmatia, also offers a wealth of grand and wonderful buildings, particularly in the island’s homonymous capital. Its present-day appearance dates mostly from the period between the 14th and 16th centuries when, in contrast to the rest of the Dubrovnik area, it belonged to Venice. Korcula is almost unique for the fish-bone pattern arrangement of its streets, and for its preserved Gothic-Renaissance buildings. The most striking among these buildings is the Cathedral of St Mark with a richly decorated exterior and interior, in which hangs a painting by the great Venetian painter, Tintoretto. The second most important sacral building is the Franciscan monastery on the small island of Badija, located close to the city, whose exterior is also richly decorated. The Museum of the City of Korcula contains exhibits ranging from the oldest of times down to the 20th century. But most intriguing for visitors to Korcula is the house of the Polo family, for it is from here that its most famous son came: that great world adventurer, Marco Polo. The people of Korcula lovingly maintain their heritage, as can be seen by the organization of church festivities, and even more so by the medieval play of chivalry, the Moreska, which is traditionally enacted once each year through the streets of the city. Two towns located in the west of the island, Vela Luka and Blato; also boast a valuable cultural heritage. Situated above Vela Luka, praised in a lovely song, is Vela Spila (Great Cave), the most important prehistoric locality in Dalmatia. Findings from the cave have included numerous items of pottery; objects made of stone and bone dating from the Neolithic period, and decorated graves. The enchanting town of Blato, located in the interior of the island and which once contained the largest settlement of all the Adriatic islands, is today well known for its high quality standards of agriculture and its preserved ambient architecture. The two most remote islands of south Dalmatia, Mljet and Lastovo, are better known for their natural heritage (Mljet National Park and Lastovo Nature Park) than for their cultural heritage. That however, does not mean there are no interesting cultural monuments on those islands. The most important of these is the 12th-century Benedictine monastery situated on a tiny islet in the middle of the Great Lake, within Mljet National Park. On Lastovo it is the homonymous settlement that catches the attention: it is spread in the fashion of an amphitheatre on the slopes of the mount overlooking a fertile field It is also known for the imagination shown in the shape of house chimneys, preserved folk costumes, and a carnival with a quaintness all of its own. And rising on the most far-flung isles in the waters of Lastovo, Susac and Glavat are very special architectural pearls: old, 19th-century lighthouses. And now, at the very end of our journey through Dalmatia, and Croatia as a whole, it would be remiss of us not to make mention of the Elafiti islands which spread out before Dubrovnik, with their enchanting summer houses and castles dating from the most glorious period of the famous Republic of Dubrovnik. Most of them are located on the island of Sipan, the most beautiful among them being the 16th-century Renaissance castle of the Stjepovic-Skocibuha family. The following places in Central Dalmatia, which are not mentioned in text above, are also worth a visit: Drace, Lumbarda. What does it mean uv-k ?

Južna Dalmacija - apartmani i kuće za odmor Južna dalmacija je sa svojih 1.782 četvornih metara i sa 123 tisuće stanovnika najmanja regija Hrvatske. Unatoč tome, ona privlači mnogobrojne turiste zbog posebnosti svojih gradova, sela i otoka, zbog svoje blage klime, mediteranske vegetacije, krajobraza i odmora kojeg pruža. Najljepši dragulj hrvatske kulturne baštine - Stari grad Dubrovnik, nalazi se na njezinu krajnjem jugu u najsunčanijoj hrvatskoj turističkoj regiji Dalmacija - Dubrovačko područje. Čini je Dubrovačko - neretvanska županija, koja se gotovo cijela pruža blizu morskih obala. U njoj je Dubrovnik najljepši i najvažniji, ali nipošto jedini kulturni biser. Tu je i postojbina Marka Pola otok Korčula, zeleni otoci Mljet, Lastovo i Elafiti i njihova slikovita naselja, poluotok Pelješac sa svojim vinogradima i kapetanskim kućama, čarobna dolina Konavle, plodna delta Neretve. Dubrovačko područje imalo je i poseban povijesni razvoj jer je tu u razdoblju od 13. do 18. stoljeća osobito cvjetala hrvatska kultura i umjetnost. Njezin vrhunac vezuje se uz 16. stoljeće, u vrijeme najveće moći slavne Dubrovačke Republike. Vizura staroga grada Dubrovnika, kada mu dolazimo putem što prolazi visoko iznad mora, iz smjera dubrovačke zračne luke jedna je od najpoznatijih vizura Hrvatske i cijelog Sredozemlja. Uostalom, i prva rečenica opisa Dubrovnika u listi Svjetske baštine UNESCO-a počinje riječima „biser Jadrana na dalmatinskoj obali”, jer malo koji grad krasi tako lijep položaj na hridi iznad mora i malo gdje su tako dobro očuvane kamene srednjovjekovne zidine i kul. Okolica Dubrovnika nema mnogo monumentalnih građevina, ali je krasi sklad arhitekture uklopljene u zeleni okoliš. To posebno dolazi do izražaja u najjužnijem kutku Hrvatske, plodnoj dolini Konavala. On dolazi do izražaja u čuvanju lijepih narodnih nošnji i očuvanom građevinskom naslijeđu kao što su Konavoski dvori na izvoru rječice Ljute. Etnografsko blago Konavala čuva se u Etnografskome muzeju u mjestu Čilipi. Najjužniji dio Konavala i cijelog hrvatskoga kopna na poluotočiću Prevlaka poznat je po strateškoj važnosti zbog kontrole ulaska u zaljev Boka kotorska u susjednoj Crnoj Gori pa njime i danas dominira monumentalna tvrđava. Glavno konavosko naselje slikoviti je Cavtat, rodno mjesto velikog hrvatskog slikara Vlahe Bukovca. Njegova rodna kuća preuređena je u galeriju njegovih slika. Drugi vrijedni ukras Cavtata mauzolej je obitelji Račić iz 1921. godine, djelo hrvatskoga kipara Ivana Meštrovića. Zapadno od Dubrovnika pruža se Dubrovačko primorje, poznato po ljetnikovcima dubrovačkih velikaša okruženih zelenilom. Na jednom od tih posjeda u slikovitome mjestu Trstenu uređen je najljepši hrvatski arboretum, gdje je na malom prostoru zasađen niz različitih suptropskih vrsta bilja, cvijeća i drveća. Cijeli arboretum Trsteno uređen je kao pejzažni park ukrašen skulpturama, od kojih je najpoznatiji kip grčkog boga Posejdona ispred slikovite fontane. Arboretum krase i skladno uređena odmorišta iz kojih se može uživati u pogledu na otvorenu pučinu. Još zapadnije pruža se prirodno najposebniji dio dubrovačke regije, delta Neretve s očuvanim močvarnim krajolicima i sa slikovitim mjestima kao što je stari grad Opuzen. Tu je i selo Vid na mjestu nekadašnje antičke Narone, koje krasi spomenik Domagojevim strijelcima, ranosrednjovjekovnim čuvarima hrvatske neovisnosti. Krenemo li od Dubrovačkog primorja prema otoku Korčuli, proći ćemo preko brdovitog vinorodnog poluotoka Pelješca. Staro središte poluotoka slikoviti je gradić Ston na prevlaci koji ga spaja s kopnom. Između Stona i susjednog Malog, poznatog po uzgoju školjaka kamenica, prostiru se impresivne zidine, a dijelom su očuvani i ostaci nekadašnjih tvrđava. Na zapadnom kraju Pelješca je Orebić, njegovo najveće naselje i glasovito središte pomorskih kapetana. O snažnoj pomorskoj tradiciji Orebića govori postojanje dviju pomorskih zbirka, jedne u Pomorskome muzeju i druge u sklopu zbirke franjevačkog samostana na brdu iznad Orebića. Tu se uz crkvu Gospe od Anđela pruža nezaboravan pogled na Pelješki kanal, Korčulu i druge otoke. Najveći otok dubrovačkog područja Korčula ponovno nudi raskoš velikih građevina, pogotovo njegovo glavno istoimeno naselje Korčula. Današnji izgled uglavnom duguje razdoblju od 14. do 16. stoljeća, kada je za razliku od ostatka dubrovačkog područja pripadao Mletačkoj Republici. Korčula je prepoznatljiva po rasteru u obliku ulica riblje kosti i očuvanim gotičko-renesansnim građevinama. Među njima se ističe katedrala svetog Marka bogato ukrašene vanjštine i unutrašnjosti, u kojoj se čuva slika velikog venecijanskog slikara Tintoretta. Druga najvažnija sakralna građevina je franjevački samostan na otočiću Badiji pokraj grada, također raskošno uređene vanjštine. Tu je i Gradski muzej Korčule koji sadrži eksponate od najstarijih vremena pa sve do 20. stoljeća. No posjetiteljima Korčule najzanimljivija je kuća obitelji Polo jer odavde potječe njezin najslavniji sin, veliki svjetski pustolov Marko Polo. Korčulani brižno čuvaju svoju baštinu, što dolazi do izražaja u održavanju crkvenih manifestacija, a još više u srednjovjekovnoj viteškoj igri Moreška, koja se jednom godišnje tradicionalno odvija na ulicama grada. Vrijednu baštinu imaju i dva velika mjesta na zapadu otoka Vela Luka i Blato. Uz Velu Luku, poznatu po lijepoj pjesmi, nalazi se najvažnije prapovijesno nalazište u Dalmaciji Vela Spila. Tu su u špilji iznad grada pronađeni brojni keramički, kameni i koštani predmeti iz razdoblja neolitika te očuvani ukrašeni grobovi. Slikovito Blato u unutrašnjosti otoka, nekad najveće naselje na jadranskim otocima, danas je poznato po kvalitetnoj poljoprivredi i očuvanoj ambijentalnoj arhitekturi. Dva najudaljenija dubrovačka otoka Mljet i Lastovo poznatiji su po svojoj prirodnoj baštini – Nacionalnom parku Mljetu i Parku prirode Lastovsko otočje. No ima na njima i zanimljivih spomenika kulture, među kojima je najvažniji benediktinski samostan iz 12. stoljeća na otočiću usred Velikog jezera u nacionalnom parku. Na Lastovu izgledom plijeni istoimeno glavno naselje, smješteno amfiteatralno na padinama brda iznad plodnog polja. Poznato je po maštovitim dimnjacima na krovovima kuća, očuvanim narodnim nošnjama te po osebujnom karnevalu. Sasvim posebni biseri arhitekture su i stari svjetionici iz 19. stoljeća na najudaljenijim otočićima u vodama Lastova Sušcu i Glavatu. I na kraju puta po Dalmaciji i Hrvatskoj bio bi grijeh ne spomenuti Elafitsko otočje ispred Dubrovnika s čarobnim starim ljetnikovcima i dvorcima iz razdoblja najvećeg sjaja slavne Dubrovačke Republike. Najviše ih je na otoku Šipanu, a najljepši je renesansni dvorac obitelji Stjepović – Skočibuha, iz 16. stoljeća. Gore smo spomenuli neka veća turistička središta Srednje Dalmacije, ali zasigurno valja spomenuti i manja središta koja će vam se sigurno svidjeti ovisno o vašim željama i apetitima: Drače, Lumbarda.
