Split

Ein bequemer und unterhaltsamer Ausflug, bei dem wir das historische Split an Bord von Autorikschas und im Rahmen eines Spaziergangs durch die Altstadt erkunden können, um völlig in die einheimische Atmosphäre einzutauchen.

• Strand Ba?vice
• Strossmayer Park
• Spaziergang durch das Zentrum
• Gergor-von-Nin-Statue
• Goldenes Tor und Peristyl des Diokletianpalasts
• Teraca Vidilica
• Vorgebirge Sustipan
• Platz der Republik

• Sobald wir von Bord gegangen sind, beginnt auch schon unser Ausflug an Bord unserer  kleinen Tuk-Tuks, wie die niedlichen zweirädrigen und überdachten Autorikschas oft genannt werden.
• Nach nur wenigen Minuten erreichen wir unser erstes Ziel, den Strand Ba?vice, der genau im Stadtzentrum, am glasklaren Wasser der Adria liegt – kein Wunder, dass er bei Einheimischen und Besuchern so beliebt ist.
• Anschließend begeben wir uns zum Strossmayer Park, der zwischen zwei Basteien, Überresten der venezianischen Festungsanlage, liegt. In dieser grünen Oase im Herzen der Stadt steht ein großer modernistischer Brunnen.
• Hier steigen wir aus und unternehmen einen Spaziergang, während dem wir einige der Hauptattraktionen von Split bestaunen können.
• Natürlich zollen wir der vom berühmten kroatischen Bildhauer Ivan Meštrovi? erbauten bronzenen Gregor-von-Nin-Statue Tribut. Wie es die Tradition will, berühren wir den großen Zeh des Heiligen, ein Ritual, das Glück bringen soll und im Laufe der Jahre den Fuß der Statue auf Hochglanz poliert hat.
• Wir spazieren durch das Goldene Tor, die monumentale Pforte zur Altstadt, welche sich im Inneren des großen Diokletianpalasts befindet, der um 300 n. Chr. als befestigter Wohnsitz errichtet wurde und sich später zu einer eigenständigen Stadt entwickelte.
• Wir spazieren durch das Peristyl, den Hauptinnenhof des Palastes, der von wunderschönen Gebäuden mit zahlreichen Säulen umrahmt wird. Aufgrund seiner malerischen Schönheit und perfekten Akustik wird der Innenhof auch für die Ausrichtung von klassischen Opern und Theateraufführungen genutzt.
• Nun steigen wir zurück in unsere Autorikscha und fahren zur Teraca Vidilica, einem Belvedere, von dem sich uns eine spektakuläre Aussicht auf die Stadt und das Meer bietet. Hier legen wir eine kurze Pause ein, um dieses unvergessliche Panorama fotografisch festzuhalten.
• Wir fahren durch den knapp 1 km langen Tunnel durch den Berg Marjan und fahren am Vorgebirge Sustipan vorbei, wo einst der erste Friedhof der Stadt lag, der inzwischen zu einem wunderschönen Park in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Zentrum mit einer atemberaubenden Aussicht auf das Meer und die Inseln umfunktioniert wurde.
• Unser Rückweg zum Hafen führt uns an der vor Kurzem restaurierten Promenade entlang bis zum Platz der Republik westlich vom Ufer. Hier haben wir die Möglichkeit, entweder auf eigene Faust weiter durch die Stadt zu flanieren oder mit der Rikscha zurück zu unserem Treffpunkt im Hafen zu fahren.

Zwei Städte, in denen die Zeit stehen geblieben ist: Solin mit seiner unglaublichen archäologischen Ausgrabungsstätte, wo man das Gefühl hat, dass die Zeit stehen geblieben ist, und Trogir, wo die Antike und die moderne Welt in einer faszinierenden Atmosphäre koexistieren.

• Solin: römische Ruinen, Amphitheater und Thermen 

• Trogir: St. Laurentius-Kathedrale, Rathaus, Cipiko Palast, Stadtloggia?

• Wir besuchen die alte Stadt Solin wo es scheint, dass die Zeit * anders als im hektischen Split * in der Epoche der Römer stehen geblieben ist, die hier eine Siedlung mit ungefähr 40.000 Einwohnern gegründet hatten. Die Ausdehnung des Gebietes mit den römischen Ruinen macht Solin heute zu einer sehr bedeutenden archäologischen Ausgrabungsstätte, in der Amphitheater und römische Thermen zum Vorschein gekommen sind. 

• Wir fahren von Solin nach Trogir, einem Städtchen, das sich auf einer kleinen Insel zwischen der größeren Insel Ciovo und dem Festland befindet. Dort entdecken wir neben riesigen grünen Parks spektakuläre Bauten, die aus Trogir ein echtes Museum unter freiem Himmel machen, in dem es schneeweiße Steinhäuser, Klöster, Kirchen und Türme gibt. 

• Wir besuchen die St. Laurentius Kathedrale, das beste Beispiel für die kroatische Architektur aus dem dreizehnten Jahrhundert. Wir gehen in Richtung Rathaus und setzen unseren Weg dann zum Cipiko Palast und zur Stadtloggia fort, die wegen des großen Reliefs von Niccolò Fiorentino berühmt ist. 

Ein wunderbarer, spiritueller Ausflug zu einem der meistbesuchten Wallfahrtsorte Europas: Hier soll 1981 die Jungfrau Maria einer Gruppe von Kindern und Jugendlichen erschienen sein. Seitdem ist Medjugorje ein Reiseziel für Pilger aus aller Welt.

• Medjugorje
• Hügel der Erscheinung
• Möglichkeit zum Besuch der Heiligen Messe

• Wir verlassen den Hafen von Spalato im Reisebus Richtung Medjugorje. Der kleine Ort in der Gemeinde von Citluk in Bosnien-Herzegowina liegt am Fuße zweier Hügel namens Krizevac und Podbrdo. Diese Lage hat ihm auch zu seinem Namen verholfen, der übersetzt 'zwischen den Bergen' bedeutet.
• Seit dem 24. Juni 1981 erhält Medjugorje weltweite Aufmerksamkeit: An diesem Tag soll die Jungfrau Maria zum ersten Mal einer Gruppe von ortsansässigen Kindern und Jugendlichen im Alter zwischen zehn und 16 Jahren in Gestalt der Friedenskönigin (Kraljica Mira) erschienen sein. Seither ist der Ort eine beliebte Pilgerstätte für Gläubige aus aller Welt.
• In Medjugorje haben wir die Möglichkeit, den Podbrdo oder Hügel der Erscheinung zu besichtigen und die Heilige Messe zu besuchen.

Die Fassade des Tempels wurde im Lauf der Jahrhunderte mehrmals umgestaltet.

It is a spectacular setting, especially for fans of the TV series “Game of Thrones,” which is based on George R. R. Martin’s “A Song of Ice and Fire” fantasy novels. In the show, the fortress served as the location for the city of Meereen. Here, Daenerys Targaryen (the Mother of Dragons) freed the slaves in Season Four.

In real life, the fortress, whose history dates to the 7th century, has been occupied by numerous Croatian rulers. Despite its seemingly impenetrable appearance, the fortress has been overtaken repeatedly, by the likes of the Ottomans, Venetians and Austrians.
