See beautiful Trogir with luxury yacht charter
By Jenny Wilson published on 11 February 2016
A luxury yacht charter in Croatia lets you explore the Dalmatian coastline and its many lovely islands. Trogir, located just under 30km from Split, is a historic island city and harbour situated between the mainland and the island of Ciovo.
There are many beautiful buildings to admire in this splendid UNESCO world heritage site, with the most famous being the Cathedral of St Lawrence, or St Lovro. Venetian influences can be seen in much of the city’s architecture and this magnificent building is no exception. Radovan’s Romanesque portal features not only the distinctive Lion of Venice emblem but also a depiction of Adam and Eve. The elaborate Chapel of St Ivan is well worth a look, as is the famous treasury with its ivory triptych and illuminated manuscripts.
The city itself is a charming maze of medieval streets packed with cafes and quirky shops. You can also enjoy a spot of people-watching along the bustling waterfront.
To see another facet of this town’s history, take a trip to the Kamerlengo Fortress. Built by the Venetians when Trogir was a navally-significant port, it is now used as a multimedia performance venue hosting open-air concerts and cinema screenings.
While away a few hours in this enchanting medieval city when you embark on luxury yacht charter in Croatia.
