OD BEOGRADA: FROM BELGRADE :
75 min.
Corfu is known as an island of history and fragrant olive gro- ves, but for Serbia is has par- ticularly significant tracks that are forever woven into the collective consciousness of the Serbs. So much in the Io- nian Sea carries the histori- cal stamp of the unbreakable bonds between our two peo- ples, and the essential Corfu tour for Serbian tourists inclu- des visiting the Serbian Hou- se and the ossuary of Serbian soldiers on the islet of Vido, close to Corfu Town. This pla- ce of sadness and silence is most beautifully described in Milutin Bojić’s famous ode The Blue Tomb, which serves as a reminder of the suffering preserved by the sea. Regardless of all its cultural and historical treasures, Corfu wouldn’t be such a popular de- stination if it didn’t also boast outstanding nature. The beac- hes here are very diverse, ran- ging from sand shores to roc- ky outcrops, and more than 30 boast a “blue flag”. The sea is warmer and calmer along the eastern coast of Corfu, whi- le its western side is exposed to more wind and waves, tho- ugh the beaches on this si- de of the island are more inte- resting. There are also many places suitable for families wi- th small children, such as Si- dari, where the water remains barely knee-deep as far as 100 metres from the shore. The- re is also an interesting natural monument called the Channel of Love, representing a tan- gle of rock formations and co- ves with an interesting shape. The village of Palaiokastrit- sa is a hidden gem, while ano- ther unmissable spot here is Glyfada Beach, which is popu- lar among young people and families.
Ostrvo sa dušom i sećanjem Island with a soul and a memory
Krf je poznat kao ostrvo isto - rije i mirisnih maslinjaka, ali za Srbiju su posebno značajni tragovi zauvek utkani u našoj kolektivnoj svesti. Toliko to- ga ovde u Jonskom moru nosi istorijski pečat neraskidive ve - ze dva naroda, a neizostavna tura za srpske turiste uključu - je obilazak Srpske kuće (spo - men-galerije u okviru Konzula - ta Srbije, posvećene boravku srpske vojske na Krfu) i pose - tu kosturnici srpskih vojnika na ostrvu Vido, nadomak glav - nog grada. Mesto tuge i tišine, najlepše opevano u čuvenoj pesmi Milutina Bojića „Pla - va grobnica“, podsetnik je na stradanja koje čuva more. Bez obzira na sve kulturne i istorijske vrednosti, Krf ne bi bio toliko popularna destina - cija da nema i izuzetnu priro -
du. Plaže su vrlo raznovrsne, od peščanih do stenovitih, a više od trideset ih ima „pla - vu zastavu“ kao znak da za - dovoljavaju najviše ekološke i logističke standarde. More uz istočnu obalu Krfa je to - plije i mirnije, dok sa zapad- ne strane ima više vetra i talasa, ali su i same plaže in - teresantnije. Postoji i mno - go mesta prilagođenih po - rodicama sa malom decom, na primer Sidari, gde na čak 100 metara od obale voda jedva doseže do kolena. Tu se nalazi i zanimljiv spome- nik prirode nazvan Kanal lju - bavi: splet grebena i uvala zanimljive forme. Paleoka - strica je skriveni dragulj, a nezaobilazna je i plaža Gli - fada, popularna među mladi - ma i porodicama.
