Grohote

The oldest and largest place on the island has always been just as it is now the economic and administrative center of the island, although the inhabitants were mostly limestone, farmers and fishermen. The center of the place consists of narrow irregular streets that enclose cottages, in partially fortified units with inner courtyards and taverns, and as such give off a rustic, old Mediterranean charm as you walk through these same cobbled streets. These valuable old examples of architecture contribute to the experience of an authentic island ambience, which is why it strives to be restored with the aim of preserving traditional island architectural values. The way of life on the island throughout history has been authentically presented in some scenes of the famous Croatian television series Velo misto, most of which was filmed in Grohote.

The interesting history of this place and the features that precede it is what keeps us coming back. Of interest is how they have preserved their history in a film. The film shows the way of life of people in this town.

The place is charming with beautiful architectural buildings that have been well designed. The evening walks on the streets were therapeutic and the different sites showcased the rich history and the cultural heritage that it holds altogether.

This place was where the famous tv series was filmed. I visited these scenes and recalled the actors and felt connected with them. My tour could not have been complete without enjoying local delicacies at a famous tavern in town. It was amazing to be here.
