Like A Phoenix Dubrovnik, The Athens Of The Adriatic, Has Risen From Virtual Destruction After Slobodan Milosovic’s Serbian Military Devastated The City In 1991.
Like a phoenix Dubrovnik, the Athens of the Adriatic, has risen from virtual eradication after Slobodan Milosovic’s Serbian military devastated the city in 1991. Seventy per cent of the homes were damaged from the bombing. Even the ancient wall that surrounds the old city was pounded by the tank shelling. Yet today Dubrovnik is a traveller destination. The old town has been rebuilt. First-class hostels are a feature of the hillside. This precious stone of a town is a living memorial to human resilience.
In the heart of the city, just within the pier, the Sponza Palace pays tribute to the dozens of local boys who paid the ultimate sacrifice protecting their town. But 20 years back seems like the distant past. Now pizza and ice cream stands abound. The orange roofs of times past have been replaced. Holiday makers from Japan, Israel, Germany and China fill the main street. And the smoke of fried fish are pervasive.
Dubrovnik is Croatia’s hydra-headed metropolis. It has been wrecked by going to armed forces and tremors and yet it survives, protected by the ancient parable of Saint Blaise, who vowed to conquer Ragusa’s (the original name of Dubrovnik) enemies. During the past, this city was a center for students, artists and teachers. It seemed to be an ecumenical community different from the other settlements in the region. As a commercial center, it caught the interest of Venetian leaders who led attacks for centuries against their competitors in the south Adriatic.
The 1.6-mile wall surrounding the town is an grand architectural wonder. For elderly tourists it is also a stress test. There are 335 steps going up and around this barrier. It is not the Great Wall of China, nor is it a walk in the park. Along the way are forts and historic monuments to a past that gives the present meaning. Looking down one finds roofs being fixed, a sea lustrous with tiny vessels and enclosed basketball courts. The Croats are basketball funny.
A few years back Don Rumsfeld, previous secretary of defense, made reference to the 2 Europes : the old Western Europestolid, socialistic and lacking entrepreneurial drive, and an Eastern Europefilled with verve, and spotting the benefit of free markets and democratic presidencies. Croatia clearly falls into the latter camp.
Dubrovnik is youthful, looking for a future that resembles the U.S. Her glory days might be behind her, however it is fascinating that Gloria Gaynor has been asked to perform in the beach wonderland. America beckons. Rumour has it the Russian oligarchs have invested significantly in and around this town. It is a far better investment harbour than anywhere in Russia. Also, Russian oligarchs have a keen sense of smell for American capitalism, and that capitalistic fervor is active in Dubrovnik’s economy.
It is too soon to say whether the Dalmatian coast will be the new French Riviera. Nevertheless it is certainly not a far-fetched agenda. Dubrovnik is the centre of the ideal scenario, not yet San Tropez ; not yet discovered by the flash and dash of the up to date jet set, but not yet far from discovery either. Always in search of new destinations, the tourist peregrines have found Dubrovnik. My suspicion is the glitterati will be on their way.
What they are going to find is an attractive seaside resort with an extraordinary history that awakens a wish to dig into the chapters of this passion-laden destination, writes tagza.com.
