2After canoeing, the fabulous selection of traditional dishes from the restaurant situated in a breathtaking position will make your day unforgettable.
Afterwards, we take you to Sinj, the town of Alka and the Croatian famous place of pilgrimage to the Miraculous Virgin Mary.
Alka is a traditional competition, a tournament, where a man, the alkar (the knight) is riding on a horseback and aims his spear at an Alka ring and pierces it.
3Visiting the Alka Museum is the best way to get to know this unusual and unique tradition.
One of the most state-of-the-art museum in Croatia, the Museum of the Alka presents the uniforms, equipment and weapons of Alkars, as well as a full-scale model of an Alkar sitting on a horseback.
Through interactive panels you can learn something about the history of the construction of Sinj city, due to the protection of Miraculous Virgin Mary.
The museum is interesting for all ages due to touch-sensitive screens showing the animated video game Battle of Sinj 1715 and a game of winning the Alka.
4After visiting the Museum you will have enough time to explore the remains of the fortress and the
Way of the Cross located on top of a small hill near the city center. In the city center you can explore the statue of Alkar and the Church of the Miraculous Madonna of Sinj or walk through the Alkarsko šetaliste (promenade).
Full of good memories, we head back.
Leave it to us and let us organize a perfect day for you.
