(B,L,D) DAY 3: Komiža, Vis Island padding Once ruled by the Greeks, Liburnians, Romans, and Venetians, Vis’ history stretches back to the Neolithic period. Its location and geography made it a prime military and trade center for centuries and was opened for tourism only in 1989. The island is rampant with fragrant wild herbs, carob trees, citrus orchards, and a rare and exotic silver palm tree. Most of the island is comprised of vineyards and is populated by gregarious, warm, and welcoming islanders. Enjoy a walking tour of the seaside town of Komiža.

Archeological evidence shows that Pula was inhabited as much as 40,000 years ago. It rose to prominence as settlement of Histri, an Illyrian tribe, in the 11th century BC. However, it was under Caesar Augustus that Pula saw its height of power and expansion. Today, the city’s crowning jewel is the best preserved Roman colosseum outside of Rome herself, built by Emperor Flavius in the 1st century AD. Since then the region has been part of countless empires and the crossroads of as many cultures, making it one of the most historically rich and interesting places in Europe. Then, explore the old city of Rovinj, once one of the most important cities in the Venetian empire. The Church of St. Euphemia is a Venetian Baroque structure restored between 1725 and 1736, and Milanese architect Alessandro Monopola designed the bell tower to resemble that of St. Mark’s Church in Venice. Rejoin Sea Cloud as she sails to Slovenia. (B,L,D) DAY 7: Piran & The Slovenian Coast/At Sea padding Slovenia is a country abundant with natural history, a coast rife with Karstic plateaus and ridges, tranquil countryside, and picturesque Istrian villages. First enjoy a scenic drive along Slovenia’s winding coastline to see typical fishing villages before venturing to the interior to sample some of the local flavors at a farmer’s market. Savory wines, fruits, olives, sweets and more are a tradition here. Back in Piran, explore cobblestone avenues and ancient sites, including the Church of St. George, modeled after St. Mark’s Cathedral in Venice, and from where you have commanding views of the Adriatic and the Julian Alps. Explore quaint Tartini Square to hear stories of the town’s fishing history and of native son Giuseppe Tartini, Italian Baroque composer and violinist for whom the town was named. Stroll the charming harbor before seeing the Venezia House to marvel at the Venetian-Gothic architecture and to hear the story of the eternal love a Venetian merchant had for the woman for whom he built this house. The open-air sea breeze accompanies you through the narrow streets and secret corners of this beautiful seaside town. This afternoon we sail to Venice where you can enjoy all Sea Cloud has to offer, along with relaxation and reflection of your journey. (B,L,D) Call us at 1.800.397.3348 or call your Travel Agent.

  • Application of Suitability Modeling in Establishing a New Bicycle–Pedestrian Path: the Case of the Abandoned Kanfanar–Rovinj Railway in Istria
    land Article Application of Suitability Modeling in Establishing a New Bicycle–Pedestrian Path: The Case of the Abandoned Kanfanar–Rovinj Railway in Istria Ariana Modesto 1, Monika Kameneˇcki 2 and Dora Tomi´cRelji´c 2,* 1 Independent Researcher, 52352 Kanfanar, Croatia; [email protected] 2 Faculty of Agriculture, School of Landscape Architecture, University of Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: This paper presents research on the conversion of the abandoned Kanfanar–Rovinj railway into a bicycle–pedestrian path, with the aim of including it in the existing network of bicycle– pedestrian paths in the Istria County in Croatia. This would enable better connection of the repur- posed railway corridor with the surrounding natural and cultural values and better use of the spatial potential, which would create more favorable conditions for the revitalization of the wider rural environment. In order to identify the existing potential of the area, as well as the impact of the proposed intervention on critical areas, a method of multicriteria analysis was used. The result of the analysis was a model of the suitability of the space, i.e., five value categories that make the space more or less suitable for accommodating new pedestrian and bicycle paths. In order to emphasize the importance of individual spatial contents in the modeling process, the method of weighted linear Citation: Modesto, A.; Kameneˇcki, combination was used.
