The Pakleni islands are mostly completely uninhabited and as such they represent an interesting nautical location. They`ve got their name by distorting the term “paklina” (black rosin), but looking at their beauty, in spite of their name, they`re more easily connected to paradise than to hell.
As all the other Dalmatian historical towns even Hvar has an abundant and interesting monumental heritage. Most of the monuments are located in the coastal part of the town, and the most important ones are the Arsenal, the cathedral, the Franciscan monastery, the Municipal Loggia.
Nevertheless, the most stupendous monument – Hvar Fortress is situated on an elevation over-looking the town. |
