    St. Michael's Cathedral

    2025年10月1日, クロアチア ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    St. Michael’s Cathedral in Šibenik is actually more accurately called the Cathedral of St. James. Construction started in 1431 and took over a century, finishing in 1536. The cathedral combines Gothic and Renaissance styles, with key contributions from master builders Giorgio Orsini (Juraj Dalmatinac) and Niccolò di Giovanni Fiorentino. Orsini extended the original Romanesque structure into a cross-shaped basilica and designed the stunning baptistery, while Fiorentino finished the dome and upper façade using innovative Renaissance methods. The exterior features 74 sculpted heads believed to depict real people from the era, and the interior boasts ornate altars, frescoes, and sarcophagi of notable bishops. Despite damage during the 1991 shelling of Šibenik, the cathedral has been carefully restored and remains a symbol of resilience and craftsmanship. It even appeared in Game of Thrones as the Iron Bank of Braavos, further cementing its global cultural significance.もっと詳しく

    St. Michael's Fortress

    2025年10月1日, クロアチア ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    St. Michael’s Fortress in Šibenik, Croatia, is a historic medieval stronghold perched on a hill overlooking the city and the Adriatic Sea. With roots tracing back to the Iron Age, it has long served as a strategic defensive site and was likely the location where King Petar Krešimir IV signed the charter that first mentioned Šibenik in 1066. Named after a church that once stood within its walls, the fortress played a vital role in the city's defence, especially during Venetian rule in the 15th century. Architecturally, it features Gothic elements, defensive walls, cisterns, and escape routes leading to the sea. After centuries of military use and decay, it was revitalised in 2014 and now serves as a vibrant cultural venue with an open-air stage, hosting concerts and events while preserving its rich archaeological heritage.もっと詳しく

    St. John's Fortress

    2025年10月1日, クロアチア ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    St. John's Fortress in Šibenik is a striking example of 17th-century military architecture, built in 1646 during the Cretan War to defend the city from Ottoman attacks. Impressively constructed in just 58 days by local citizens without Venetian support. It features a star-shaped layout with a unique plier-shaped outwork known locally as "Tanaja." It played a crucial role in repelling Ottoman sieges in 1646 and 1647. Throughout the years, it was used by various military forces and eventually fell into disrepair. After extensive restoration, it reopened in 2022 as a cultural and educational site, offering panoramic views of Šibenik and hosting events and exhibitions that celebrate its rich history.もっと詳しく

    Šibenik to Makarska

    2025年10月2日, クロアチア ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

    We were back on the road again, driving from Šibenik to Makarska, a short, scenic trip of about 150 kilometres along Croatia’s stunning Dalmatian coast. We were treated to some breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea, charming seaside towns, and dramatic cliffs. Along the way, we stopped at picturesque spots like Primošten, Trogir, Split, and Omiš, each offering its own unique blend of history, architecture, and natural beauty. While the inland A1 motorway offered a quicker route, the coastal drive is much more rewarding. When we arrived in Makarska, we found a lively town nestled between the sea and the Biokovo mountains.もっと詳しく

    Makarska lies at the foot of the Biokovo massif, part of the Dinaric Alps, which creates a dramatic elevation drop to the sea. This topography funnels cold air down the slopes, accelerating it toward the coast. The Vrulja Bay area is especially known for violent Bora gusts due to this terrainもっと詳しく

    Pelješac Bridge

    Stari Most (Old Bridge)

    2025年10月5日, ボスニア・ヘルツェゴビナ ⋅ 🌧 15 °C

    We arrived in Mostar in the early afternoon, just as the rain started to fall. We needed some groceries, so we headed out in the rain and came across the city’s most iconic landmark, the Stari Most (Old Bridge), a 16th-century Ottoman masterpiece that arches gracefully over the emerald Neretva River. Originally built by the Ottomans and reconstructed after being destroyed during the Bosnian War in the 1990s, the bridge is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a powerful symbol of unity and resilience. Surrounding the bridge is the Old Town, a labyrinth of cobbled streets, Ottoman-era buildings, bustling bazaars, and traditional cafes where you can enjoy strong Bosnian coffee and local delicacies, such as ćevapi and baklava. A great walk, even with the rain.もっと詳しく

    Dubrovnik to Mostar

    2025年10月5日, ボスニア・ヘルツェゴビナ ⋅ 🌧 15 °C

    After leaving Dubrovnik, we headed inland towards Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina. After four weeks in the Shengren area, we had our first border control since arriving in Zurich. There were two border points: one for Croatian border control to indicate we were leaving the Shengren area, and a second for Bosnian border control to mark our entry into their country. Along the way, we explored the rural beauty of the Konavle region, visited the historic Sokol Fortress, and wandered through the picturesque Ottoman village of Počitelj.もっと詳しく
