Destacados

The old heart of the town has been fascinating for a large number of tourists. It is a hometown of a seaman and travel writer Marko Polo and we believe it should be seen from a different perspective, presented by his mistress, Lady Franchesca. His life surely was not monotonous ( he travelled for about twenty-four years, passing some twety-five thousand kilometres and bringing various oriental wonders into our world) and presented through the eyes of the time-witness, it will be most amusing for you. The man who has changed a course of history and gastronomy was a heart breaker, as well, and it is up to you to find out whose heart he had broken. Learn interesting things about his hometown and customs of the time through his not so publicly known private life. Lady Franchesca s story will triger your imagination and senses.

About Korčula Island

Korčula is a wooded Adriatic island in southern Dalmatia, with a walled medieval town, its own white wines and a narrow strait to Pelješac.

Korčula lies off the coast of southern Dalmatia, a long island covered in Aleppo pine, with Korčula Town on a small peninsula at its eastern end. The old town is enclosed by stone walls and towers, and its streets branch off a central spine in a herringbone pattern. St Mark's Cathedral, in pale local stone, stands at the top of the town, and Marco Polo is said by local tradition to have been born here.
