Town of Porec (Croatia) - Travel Guide
Take a tour of Town of Poreč in Porec, Croatia - part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
A town noted for its exceptional beaches, Porec is nearly 2000 years old and sits on the northern coast of Croatia.

Bajkovita Hrvatska - Šibenska katedrala (Katedrala Sv. Jakova)
Sibenik Cathedral
The Cathedral of St. James (Croatian: Katedrala sv. Jakova) in Šibenik, Croatia is a triple-nave basilica with three apses and a dome (32 m high inside) in the city of Šibenik, Croatia. It is the church of the Catholic Church in Croatia, and the see of the Šibenik diocese. It is also the most important architectural monument of the Renaissance in the entire country. Since 2000, the Cathedral has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
It is often mistakenly known as St Jacob's, because Croatian, like many other languages, uses the same name for both James and Jacob. It is dedicated to Saint James the Greater.
Inside the cathedral there are four large, evenly matched columns on which the dome rests. The builder decorated the capitals and came to arrangements with the nobles who were to finance the building of chapels, on condition that they would be free to choose their own builders.In the first chapel on the right-side, there is the sarcophagus of the bishop, humanist and writer Juraj Šižgorić (1420-1509) which is the work of Andrija Aleši based on a design by Juraj Dalmatinac. Aleši also created the statue of St. Elijah which stands behind the bishop's throne. On the left-hand side is the sarcophagus of Bishop Ivan Štafilič, during whose life the cathedral was completed. Beneath the choir there are the graves of two bishops, which reliefs: on the right Bishop Calegari and on the left, Bishop Spingarola. The latter is the work of the local artist Antun Nogulovič.
Opposite the famous Altar of the Holy Cross (Sveti Križ) made by Juraj Čulinovič (Giorgio Schiavone) is buried (1433 or 1446-1505). On the altar there is a painting by Felipe Zaniberti. Amongst other altars to the left of the entrance is the Altar of the Holy Three Kings with a painting by Bernardo Rizzardi, according to the ground plan of Juraj Dalmatinac. The fragments of the mosaic of the Holy Three Kings in St. Mark's Basilica in Venice are now in the Museo Marciano in Venice. The sides of the altar are decorated with reliefs of two angels holding the scroll of Nikola Firentinac, set into shell-shaped niches. The Cathedral Treasury includes works by the Renaissance master Horacije Fortezza of Šibenik (1530-1596), an exceptional goldsmith and miniaturist.
After Fiorentino died in 1505, the construction was finally completed in 1536 by two other craftsmen, Bartolmeo of Mestra and his son Jacob, completely following Nicholas' instructions. The cathedral officially became consecrated in 1555 after a multitude of Venetian and local craftsmen had worked on it, in Gothic style. Most of the restoration was done between 1850 and 1860 and subsequently between 1992 and 1997.
The dome of the church was heavily damaged by the JNA-supported Serb forces during the shelling of Šibenik in September 1991. Within years it was quickly repaired with no damage visible. It is interesting to note that this cathedral has no bell-tower. A tower on the adjoining city walls served this purpose.
The building of the church was initiated in 1402, though plans on its construction had already begun in 1298, when Šibenik became a municipality. The actual work to transform the older Romanesque cathedral began in 1431. Built entirely of stone (limestone from a nearby stone quarry and marble from the island of Brač), it was completed in three phases, from 1433 to 1441, when the Grand City Council entrusted the work to local and Italian masters Francesco di Giacomo, Lorenzo Pincino, Pier Paolo Bussato, Bonino da Milano, and Giorgio da Sebenico (Juraj Dalmatinac) and to Croatian ones Andrija Budčić and Grubiš Šlafčić.
Diocletian's Mausoleum / Cathedral of Saint Domnius Split Croatia
Emperor Diocletian had a massive mausoleum built for his tomb, back in the 300s C.E. Not long after his death, the Christians that he pursued revolted and took the mausoleum, disappeared his body, and made it into a cathedral, probably the earliest space dedicated to Christianity, if not the smallest. Today, and for centuries, it has contained the remains of some of the people Diocletian martyred. viajaapretao.com

Travel Croatia - Visiting Euphrasian Basilica in Porec
Take a tour of Euphrasian Basilica in Poreč, Croatia - part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
The Euphrasian Basilica stands magnanimously on the grounds of Poreč in Croatia.
The basilica is a part of the Episcopal complex, which is an immaculate archetype of early Byzantine architecture.
The primary features of this masterpiece are the lovely mosaics which date to the 4th and 6th centuries.
The gorgeous mosaic on the vault showcasing Mary and Child is the only existing representation of its kind left in an early-Christian western basilica.
The present structure was constructed in the 6th century on the grounds of a former 4th century basilica.
This grand monument has survived numerous mishaps and natural disasters over time, and miraculously has managed to retain much of its original shape.
