STAROGRADSKO POLJE

Starogradsko polje je kulturni krajolik koji se oblikovao kroz zadnih 2500 godina. Temele su mu udarili Grci podijelivši ga pravile parcele, strige, duljine 1×5 stadija (180x900m). Od tada taj spoj pravilnih putova, suhozida, nasada maslina, vinove loze, sočivica i agruma prehranjuje otok Hvar, tvoreći kutivirani mediteranski krajolik. I drugi narodi i kulture ga oblikuju prema svojim potrebama i načinu života. Međutim ono ostaje nepromijenjo i funkciji onoga što je polje ktoz čitavu prošlost bilo, „trbuh otoka“. Kao takvog, ga je UNESCO uvristo na listu materijalne baštine 2008. godine, kao sedmi lakalitet u Republici Hrvatskoj.

STARI GRAD PLAIN

Stari Grad Plain is a cultural landscape that has been formed over the last 2500 years. Its foundations were laid by the greeks who divided it into parcels measuring 1×5 Greek stadia (180x900m) in length. Ever since this combination of straight roads, dry stone walls, olives, grapevine, lentils and citus fruit has been feeding the island of Hvar, creating a cultivated Mediterranean landscape. Other nations and culture shape it as well in accordance with their needs and the way of life. However it remains unaltered and functioning as „a pantry of the island“ as it has always been. As such it has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2008 as the seventh site in the Republik of Croatia.
