Hvar part 2

2007.12.21
This was the view from our room where we spent one night on the island of Hvar. On the top of the hill is the fortress you will see more of in photos below.

The view from the balcony was nice too.

First we stopped for espresso. We agreed that the espresso at Archie's was the best we'd had.

Reviewing the maps.

A view of the town and the fortress from the seawall.

Buildings and tress along the seawall.

The Franciscan monastery bult in the 15th century.

An elevated view of the seawall where I stood to take photo #5.

Further up the path to the fortress.

Lion figure on the fortress.

The door is locked.

This wall runs all the way down to the town.

Fortunately there is a gate in the wall, so you can ealisy get to the other side.

Path along the fortress wall.

A bit of the town and tiny nearby islands.

Another view of the islands.

A tiny chapel near the fortress.

Memorial candle at the chapel.

The Cathedral of St. Stephan as viewed from our table at Archie's cafe bar.

Hvar rooftops.

A model town?

More photos of our short visit to the Island of Hvar.
