Stari Grad

Stari Grad (English: "Old Town") is a place on the northern side of the island of Hvar in Dalmatia (opposite side from city Hvar). One of the oldest Dalmatian spots in Europe, its position at the end of a long, protected bay and next to prime agricultural land has long made it attractive for human settlement. The most ancient part of Stari Grad falls within the UNESCO Protected World Heritage Site. Petar Hektorović (1487–1572) was a famous Croatian poet, writer, and author and he was born and died in Stari Grad. His Tvrdalj Castle is good to see the place here, and it is as we recommend one of the top 6 things to do in Stari Grad. Great place to see, especially if you try to avoid too crowded “hot spots” as an example is Hvar city.
