Water and nature

in perfect harmony
Krka is one of the Croatian national parks, named after the river Krka that it
encloses and is located just a few kilometers northeast of the city of Sibenik.
It was proclaimed a national park in 1985 and is the seventh national park in
Croatia. Watching the waterfalls in full flow is truly a breathtaking sight.

FROM THE EDITOR
Mark Thomas
mark.thomas@sibenik-times.com
Welcome to our beautiful city
and to the thirteenth edition
of the second season of “The
Sibenik Times”. More and more
people are moving around and
setting up hone in another
country. The European Union
has brought with it the pos-
sibility to live and work in an-
other member country without
difficulties. Every year the visa
requirements for living outside
of Europe are eased. The term
“global village” has never been
more accurate. Communica-
tions are improving on almost
a daily basis, and transporta-
tion is expanding and develop-
ing just as fast. Technological
developments with email, we-
bcams and reduced phone costs
also mean that you can speak
to family and friends as often
as you would when you were at
home. One of my friends from
England asked me the other
day about living in a foreign
country. Although it’s just a
thought he was curious about
“life on the other side.” After
thinking for some time I tried
to pinpoint the important fac-
tors and came up with three
key phases. The first is concep-
tion – you plan your move from
start to finish, the second is –
the transition phase – this is
the first two years away from
home, and the last is the inte-
gration phase – when you start
to become part of the local
community. Each phase has its
own special demands and its
own problems. But that if he
really wants to try to live in a
foreign country then do it, you
only live once after all so enjoy
it as much as you can.
SPEAK UP!
We would love to hear from you.
Please write or send an e-mail to
us about your stay in Sibenik. Yo-
ur comments are valuable to us
and the most interesting letters
will be published every week. In-
teresting and unusual photos are
also welcome. Thanks.

BLUE FLAGS FOR 115 BEACHES AND
20 MARINAS IN CROATIA
Croatia has been awarded 115 Blue Flags for
beaches and 20 Blue Flags for marinas this year.
To get the exclusive eco-label Blue Flag, a beach or
marina has to meet ecological, educational, secu-
rity and service standards. The Blue Flag Progra-
mme is owned and run by the independent non-
profit organisation Foundation for Environmental
Education (FEE). The programme is an internatio-
nal project started by the EU Council in 1981. Cro-
atia has ten-per-cent fewer Blue Flags this year, but
that is because of recession, not ecological issues.
Because of lack of money, there were fewer appli-
cations for Blue Flags this year. ‘Lijepa Nasa’ (Our
Beautiful Land) association head Ante Kutle said
today (Weds) a Blue Flag was important to many
tourists when they choose their summer-holiday
destination, the daily Vjesnik has reported. Kutle
said: “Last year, Croatia received 145 Blue Flags
for beaches and marinas that ranked it seventh on
the world list.” The Blue Flag was awarded this
year to a total of 3,338 beaches and marinas in
various countries.
INTERNAL CROATIAN
FLIGHTS FOR LESS
People travelling across Croatia for their holi-
days will now have the opportunity to purchase
cheaper flights. National carrier Croatia Airlines
has reduced the cost of some of its internal routes
that locals and holidaymakers alike may be able
to take advantage of if they book quickly enough
- the cheapest tickets are apparently the first to be
sold. Citing the Vecernji newspaper, the Croatian
Times has revealed that Zagreb flights to Split and
Dubrovnik can be found for 210 kunas, including
all taxes. People heading on a Croatia holiday from
the capital to Pula or Zadar will be able to locate
deals for 190 kunas. Some ten per cent of flight
tickets for these routes will be made available at
the aforementioned cheaper rate. An alternative
method of making the most out of a Croatia ho-
liday is to hire a car and stop off at the various
points of interest across the country. However,
tourists were warned earlier this year that they
should book car hire facilities early because the
global recession has had an effect on the number
of available vehicles in nations across Europe.
NORTH DALMATIA ISLANDS RECOMMENDED
A Croatia travel destination that holi-
daymakers may wish to consider this sum-
mer is the Kornati Islands. The Croatian
National Tourist Board has highlighted
the region as somewhere those looking
for accommodation in Croatia might want
to stay. It described the Kornati Islands as
the “most indented island group in the
Mediterranean” and detailed a number of
its attractions to tourists. People visiting
can head to the Kornati National Park or
the Telascica Natural Park, which offers
tourists a deep bay in which they can relax
and really enjoy their holiday in Croatia.
Elsewhere in the country, people heading
to Croatia can enjoy the Zadar Summer
of Theatre on the Adriatic coast from to-
day until the start of August. According to
the tourist board, the festival gives guests
to Croatia a chance to “add a special to-
uch of culture” to their summer holiday
by watching various theatre productions
and dance displays.

Natural herita
The region of the Krka River
was pronounced a national park
due to its geological and hydro-
logical uniqueness, mainly be-
cause of the process of the tufa
deposits which have built water-
falls. The waterfalls have formed
over thousands of years and are
still today tirelessly constructing
themselves. Numerous deposits,
bacteria, algae, moss and other
sediments, mostly invisible to the
human eye, add to the building
process of the waterfalls. The
work of these deposits has slowly
changed the flow of water and
has formed conditions for a num-
ber of plants and wildlife to thri-
ve. Exactly these new and varied
flora and fauna have brought wi-
th them a new look to the Krka

Krka national park
River. Until today in the Krka na-
tional park around 900 different
types of plant life have been re-
corded, of which these are made
up of a mixture of endemic and
very rare varieties. The endemic
plants which grow in the national
park region are mostly represen-
tative of Adriatic varieties which
can be found in other areas in the
Croatian countryside. On the wet
lands around the bottom of the
river grows different species and
on the stones cliffs completely
different varieties. Nature lo-
vers will be especially interested
with the plant life on the Roški
waterfall. In this relatively small
area you can find all possible
conditions for all possible kinds
of plant life. The Krka National
Park is a spacious, largely un-
changed region of exceptional
and multifaceted natural value,
and includes one or more pre-
served or insignificantly altered
ecosystems. It is intended prima-
rily for scientific, cultural, educa-
tional, recreational, and tourism
activities such as visiting and
sightseeing. It was proclaimed a
national park in 1985 and is the
seventh national park in Croatia.
The Krka National Park is loca-
ted entirely within the territory
of Šibnik- Knin County and en-
compasses an area of 109 square
kilometers along the Krka River:
two kilometers downriver from
Knin to Skradin and the lower
part of the Čikola River. From
the flooded part of the mouth, it
is 72.5 kilometers in length, ma-
king the Krka the 22nd longest
river in Croatia. The source of the
Krka River is at the base of the Di-
naric Mountains, 3.5 kilometers
northeast of the base of Knin and
22 meters below Topoljski Slap,
Veliki Buk and Krčić Slap, which
are noisy cascades in the winter
but run dry during the summer.
The length of the freshwater sec-
tion of the river is 49 kilometers
and that of the brackish section
is 23.5 kilometers. Significant tri-
butaries of the Krka River include
Krčić, Kosovčica, Orašnica, Butiš-
nica and Čikola with Vrb. With its
seven travertine waterfalls and a
total drop of 242 meters, the Kr-
ka River is a natural and karstic
phenomenon. The Krka National
Park belongs to the Southern Eu-
ropean (Mediterranean and sub-
Mediterranean) region. Due to its
special position and the mosaic
distribution of various types of
habitats, it is characterized by
exceptionally rich and varied
flora and fauna. Eight hundred
and sixty species and subspeci-
es of plants have been identified
within the territory of the Krka
National Park, including several
endemic Illyrian-Adriatic speci-
es. The wealth of plant species,
where warm and dry habitats co-
me into contact with moist and
shady ones, are of particular inte-
rest at Roški Slap, with its canyon
vegetation, and at Skradinski
Buk, where you can see the plant
species of the travertine barriers.

Our Lady of Tarac

On the first Sunday in July
the citizens of Murter and the
surrounding islands celebrate
the festival “Our Lady of Tarac.”
The day is marked with a boat
trip out to the church of the sa-
me name on a local island and is
certainly a colourful event. The
area around the field Tarac is
doubtless the first colonised pla-
ce in the Islands. A Neolithic axe
was found at the neighbouring
field Žejkovci, and both fields
are surrounded with Liburnian
cairns. In the 6th century, jud-
ging by everything, the fort Tu-
reta was built on the hill above
Tarac, and its garrison ensured
safe navigation in the Kornat
Channel. Tureta is the only fort
from that period that was not
destroyed, obviously because
it was built at a location where
there was no settlement, and the
population did not reach for its
stones. The fort is in a neglected
state today. At the foot of the hi-
ll, and it seems at the same time,
the church of St. Mary was built
in the area between the small co-
ve and the field. The answer as
to which is older, the church or
the fort, or whether they were
perhaps built at the same time,
has not been offered yet. This
was a large church (its dimen-
sions are around 20 by 30 m)
which probably served as safe
haven for sailors who waited in
the protected coves of Šipnat,
Levrnaka or Telašćica for favou-
rable conditions to resume their
journeys. Only the apse and part
of the church foundations rema-
in to this day. In the late Middle
Ages a small church was built
in its nave, devoted to Gospa od
Pohođenja (The Visitation of the
Blessed Virgin Mary) but which
the population names Gospe o’
Tarca. The divine service and
the blessing of the fields are
held on the first Sunday in July.
Hundreds of boats then hasten
to Tarac. The votive procession
of boats is one of the most bea-
utiful and most interesting reli-
gious events in Croatia.

Island of Murter
The island of Murter is lo-
cated in the northwest part
of the Šibenik archipelago,
separated from the main-
land by narrow sea canal
at Tisno which is spanned
by a 12 meter draw-bridge.
Asphalted road (6 km long)
connects Murter with Adria-
tic tourist road, and distan-
ce from the city of Šibenik is
29 km. The limestone part
of the island is covered by
sparse vegetation. On the
northwest, there are fertile
quaternary layers (loess).
The highest point is the pe-
ak of Raduč at 125 meters
above sea level. Located at
the entrance to the Kornati
Islands (Murter inhabitants
own most of the land), Mur-
ter is an attractive spot for
yachtsmen, and all lovers
of quiet relaxation. The be-
ginnings of tourism in Mur-
ter date back to the 1930's,
when Czech Villa was built
in Slanica cove. The econo-
my is based on agriculture,
olive growing, fruit growing,
gardening, cattle raising,
fishing and tourism. Murter
offers various accommoda-
tion (hotels, condominiums,
marinas), nice and quiet be-
aches, numerous restaurants
and taverns, but any visitor
to Murter will be especially
thrilled if they choose to visit
the islands of Kornati in one
of the organized tours. The-
re are many sports courts
in town (tennis, basketball,
five-a-side football), water
sports are also an option.
During the summer, there
are various sports events,
preceded by the April rega-
tta Murter - Kornati as an
introduction to the season.

Interview – Mr. Ivan Livić
Bunari – secrets of Sibenik
•• Could you tell me somet-
hing of the history of the "bu-
nari"?
Just ten metres from the St.
Jacob Catherdral, renaissance
City Hall and the cathedral St
Lovre, behind high stone walls
a plateau is hidden which holds
four wells, that were in function
up until the middle of the last
century. “Water is life” and the
people of Sibenik have known
this for many years. Due to
frequent attacks and sieges as
well as long periods of drought
the ancestors of Sibenik deci-
ded to construct a public water
system. On the 10th of January
1446 an agreement between the
borough of Sibenik and the ci-
vil engineer, Jakov Coterr was
signed. The contract involved
constructing a large centre of
water tanks and the idea for
the “four wells” was born. The
whole project was supervised
by Jurje Dalmatinac, a famous
civil engineer, architect and con-
structor. One interesting anec-
dote is that although Sibenik
with a fresh water supply that
the Turkish never managed to
conquer. Probably this was due
to the extremely strong walls,
towers and forts that protec-

ted the city at that time. And
while the gentry enjoyed clean
drinking water from the four
wells the general public were
forced to use public fountains
for their water. In spite of the
fact that the wells are located
under sea level they contained
up to 28,800 barrels of drinking
water. In the second half of the
19th century, after the construc-
tion of public water mains, the
city wells were no longer nee-
ded. And during the Second
World War they were used as
bunkers from air raids. A UK
Trade & Investment-sponsored
trade mission to Croatia has re-
sulted in the country becoming
a major export market for JAN-
VS Design Group, a team of de-
signers specialising in museums,
galleries and visitor centres. In
the coastal town of Sibenik, JA-
NVS has been appointed as the
designer to “Bunari: Secrets of
Sibenik”, a project within the
Unesco World Heritage Site that
is redeveloping four mediaeval,
vaulted underground wells, ea-
ch of which held 28,800 barrels
of water.
What can tourists expect to
see in the "bunari"?
An interactive museum in the
very heart of Sibenik, the wells
are the secrets of the city. You
can see a presentation of old
Sibenik architecture, especially
the wells and their use, Sibenik
legends, important historical
events and personalities, tradi-
tional costumes from Sibenik,
old diving equipment and tools
of forgotten trades. There are
very interesting stories of mari-
time trade through history, shi-
pbuilding, pirates of the Medi-
terranean and of course hidden
treasures. Your journey through
the museum continues with a
story of the natural treasures
of Sibenik, the national parks
of Krka and Kornati. As well as
presenting a calendar of events
in the city. In this attractive area
of the four wells guests can vi-
sually and acoustically have an
unforgettable experience. With
a combination of lights and so-
unds and even smells the sights
and sounds of ancient Sibenik
will reveal themselves. The spa-
ce has over 400 meters squared
and is divided into two halls.
What gave you the idea to
convert the "bunari" into a
tourist attraction?
Is six months long enough to
repair an object that has seen
years and years of neglect and
misuse, to rebuild it and rege-
nerate it to its former glory and
to make an interesting cultural
attraction from it? In the West
probably the answer is yes, but
you have to keep in mind that
Croatia is a country full of bea-
ucracy which makes the whole
situation much more complica-
ted. The current owners are Ivi-
ca Pilić and Ivan Livić and they
have continued the year’s long
project of managing the four
wells. In 2004 an exhibition spa-
ce was opened which won the
coveted “Blue Flower” award
for the best tourist attraction.
And on the ground floor of the
object stretching over 250 me-
tres squared is a wine bar and
a café bar “Bunari.” Along with
a rich offer of fine wines, hot
and cold cuisines many events
are held there, from weddings,
business meetings, concerts of
blues, jazz, funk and swing.
•• How popular is the "bunari"
with tourists?
Šibenik is hiding many se-
crets and surprises. You can
discover it with a special trai-
ned guide who will take you to
all the landmarks in the town,
but also to hidden alleyways,
rich with authentic sights and
sounds of a Mediterranean life.
The story about Šibenik is told
through 7 themes: story about
the “Wells”, history about Ši-
benik, famous faces of Šibenik,
shipwrecks, hidden treasures
of Šibenik, natural treasures,
tastes of Šibenik – a café and a
souvenir shop. As a part of each
theme one can find panels and
interactive games, such as a 3D
puzzle of one of Šibenik castles,
safe boxes with hidden treasu-
res, or a pinball machine on shi-
pwrecks. Have fun! This award-
winning exhibit is built around
four 15th-century bunara water
storage tanks about 46m (150
ft.) from magnificent St. Jacob's
Cathedral. Inside, two floors of
sequentially arranged exhibits
trace the city's history in wor-
ds, photos, and even film. All
are numbered so visitors can
follow the displays in a specific
order using a timeline that tra-
ces the city's evolution from its
origins to the present day. The
self-guided tour of explaining
Sibenik's culture, development,
and famous native sons ends at
a coffeehouse on the bottom
level, where you can ruminate
about what you've just seen.

THE 49TH INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN’S FESTIVAL
A city filled with
sights and sounds
Here, on the flagstones of the ol-

ral history of Croatia and Europe was
built over centuries. The paintings of

geniuses of Antun and Faust Vrančić,

mes cathedral’s stone poetry just to
mention the most distinguished give
Sibenik a safe anchorage in the cul-
tural sea of Croatia and Europe. Sibe-
nik has always had leanings towards
music, song and the performing arts.
All the Sibenik streets, stairs, squares,
passages, the waterfront, parks, the
Cathedral and the theatre belong to
the numerous stages which become
lively and busy during summer time
at the unique world performance, the
International Children's Festival. The-
re is almost no need to sit somewhere
in the audience, because the audience
and the stage is everywhere at Sibenik
in those days! Ensembles and actors,
singers and dancers, directors and re-
porters crowd at the time in this centre
on the Adriatic coast. The city gave its
best times and sites to the river and
the sea, but it also gave its best times
and spaces to everybody who came
along the river and from the sea. The
city gave all of them joy and youth,
both summers and the shine in the
eyes of a child. And the city gave the
festival. The festival is forty years old.
It is called the International Children's
Festival Sibenik - Croatia. To make the
festival possible, the old city theatre

And when it was not enough, the festi-

dreams and reality.
Since then, you can meet a pup-

Little
The Sibenik – Knin County is full of

cluding two national parks, are unique
and breathtaking. Its cuisine and wine
are world class. The connection to the sea
CROATIAN CUISINE
Croatian cuisine is heteroge-
neous and is therefore known
as the cuisine of regions, since
every region has its own distinct
culinary traditions.
Its modern roots date back
to ancient periods and the dif-
ferences in the selection of fo-
odstuffs and forms of cooking
are most notable between those
on the mainland and those in
coastal regions. Mainland cu-
isine is more characterized by
the earlier Slavic and the more
recent contacts with the more
famous gastronomic orders of
today - Hungarian, Viennese
and Turkish - while the coastal
region bears the influences of
the Greek, Roman and Illyrian,
as well as of the later Medi-
terranean cuisine - Italian and
French.

the form of a broad white scarf,
it became part of the traditional
male national costume. After
that, ties became fashionable, a

FE STIVA L OF OLD

WED
“Oj divojko,
diži se iz dvora”
Seven different societies from the Si-
benik – Knin County, Split County and
the Zadar County performed in the fe-
stival. They were: Kud Ante Zaninović,
Kaštel Kambelovac, Kuu Bezdan Pirovac,
Kud Spužvar- Krapanj Brodarica, Kud Ko-
ledišće Jezera, Kud Travulin Tisno, Grupa
Građana iz Murtera, Kud Fortica-Novi-
grad Zadar. The festival kicked off with
a procession though the main streets of
Pirovac to the older section of the town
and was accompanied by large crowds,
both local citizens and tourists visiting
the town. It was a perfect opportunity to
take some holiday snaps. The day’s pro-
gram was organised on the Rudina Squ-
are but due to bad weather conditions it
was moved inside the main hall. This in
a way gave the whole event a much more
“domestic” atmosphere. The whole idea
of the festival was to show the complete
process of meeting, proposing and finally
getting married to a girl in times gone by
with traditional costumes and customs.
Mr. Nenad Milin was the creator of the
whole festival and his ideas were certa-
inly well produced, and the event was
presented by Nikola Urukalo. The expert
jury of Tvrtko Zebec , Damir Kremenić
and Jadran Kale had a tough time on
deciding which of all the wonderful per-
formers was the most original. But in the
saturday

end after serious debate they decided on
the local society “Bezdan”, who exhibited
themselves in full glory and with many
details. All of the performers were awar-
ded the “Zloselski fuštan” for their efforts
and the fun continued on the terrace of
the restaurant “Malo Misto” with local cu-
isines, drinks and of course vocal choir
music from the group “Canzona.”
The main aim of the festival “OJ DI-
VOJKO, DIŽI SE IZ DVORA” was to cre-
ate a high quality tourist attraction and
one for which the whole town would be
recognised. It is the plan in the future to
make this a traditional event and to bring
even more presenters to perform and to
exhibit their local wedding customs. In
the long run there are also plans to make
the festival an international one. This is
an opportunity for all of us, and especi-
ally the younger older generation, not to
forget our roots, our history, our customs
and our traditions. They are a symbol of
where we are from and give us the chan-
ce to be ourselves. I hope that we are at
the beginning of a great success. We we-
re under the spotlight from the jury, the
public and the tourists that visited, which
at the end of the day was our goal. And
the plan for next year is to be bigger and
better, stated Marija Šparica, director of
the Pirovac Tourist Board.
