The Birthplace Of Marco Polo Welcomes The Welcome Team, Who Reach Korcula With A Mixture Of Canoe And Bike To Close The ‘M ‘ In Welcome
The aim of the project is to spotlight Croatia’s natural beauty, rich cultural heritage and wide ranging tourism offer by travelling the length of the country using various adventure sports methods of transportation along a winding route which spells out the word “Welcome.” The route will be apparent from Google Earth, allowing Croatian tourism to claim the title of the world’s largest welcome.
Leaving the protected bay at Loviste, the team headed to the island of Korcula by kayak, coming up against windy conditions in the open sea and, while they were forced to continue with caution at certain times it did not prevent them from socialising with various sea turtles whom they came across on the route.
After a short swim, the team paddled to the town of Babina on the northwards coast, where a decision was made to switch the intended route after neighbors informed them about routes to a giant wooded canyon.
Making the switch to bikes, the Welcome team made their way to the obscure Kocje nature park, a natural phenomenon not encountered anywhere else on the trip. Kocje is an impressive collection of limestone rock, as high as 20m in parts, concealed by dense vegetation. The effect is a natural warren of tunnels, cracks and caves with a lot of the rock covered in green moss.
Kojce has been declared a specifically protected reserve of forest vegetation, and some archaeologists believe it was inhabited by early man. A more engaging idea has been put forward by an Italian professor of mathematics and physics which places Kojce as the sole entry point in the world for positive lines for magnetic force from Space.
Taking to the key road, the Welcome team continued their journey, ultimately arriving in the surprising ancient walled city of Korcula, one of the best preserved stone cities on the coast. One of the primary traveller attractions in that city is that it is allegedly the birthplace of the great explorer Marco Polo, who would doubtless have endorsed the initiative of the Welcome Project.
Cycling thru the town’s streets, the team then headed for their final destination for the day, the little town of Lumbarda, where they finished the route for the letter “M” in the “Welcome” message. Due to some diversions from the planned route, particularly on the island of Hvar, the letter “M” is not as clear as the rest, but still extraordinarily meaningful.
With just the letter “E” to go, the project is entering its final stages, with arrival in Dubrovnik lined up for June three. The final stages include travelling along the Peljesac Peninsula to Ston, before backtracking thru the Bosnian Riviera (the single time the project leaves Croatia) to the border town of Metkovic, and then back to Peljesac and on to the island of Mljet before a last kayak effort to Dubrovnik, as reported tagza.com.
Croatia is really gorgeous country and everybody who comes in this lovely country, wish to have Croatia real estate. The Croatian home market is reasonably well developed. Croatian land and Croatian home prices are still extraordinarily propitious, especially on the Dalmatian islands where properties such as attractive Croatia stone homes built in the ordinary style.
Also in the beautiful Croatia consequential cities like Dubrovnik, Hvar, Zadar or Korcula there are wonderful real-estate and property chances to get prime location real-estate at reasonable prices. Foreign interest in purchasing property in Croatia, including the small islands, suddenly grew 2 years ago. Until then foreigners did not believe this was a market a smart idea to invest in property.
Broker real-estate are consultants in real-estate and property in all areas of Croatia. Croatia has an enormous range of villas on Dalmatian islands, apartments in pictoresque old cities, homes near to the fully clear Adriatic, homes or any kind of property or property for development in the major holiday maker and holiday home areas of Croatia, including Dubrovnik and Istria.
The near term rental market will grow with the number of returning vacation makers. Untouched, relaxed, attractive, and safe, Croatia is one of Europe’s loveliest treasures. Everything a discriminating visitor or house consumer is hunting for can be discovered here : clear as crystal seas, changeless fishing hamlets, and unspoiled beaches, Roman ruins, a spotless lake district, and medieval walled cities. Although real-estate prices in Croatia have been skyrocketing at a rate of between 20 p.c and 30 p.c per annum in recent years, it isn’t too late to buy .
