Veli Rat is a protected landscape area on the island of Dugi Otok, best known for its impressive lighthouse. Built in 1849, the lighthouse rises about 42 meters high and is considered the tallest on the Adriatic coast. Its distinctive yellow exterior is surrounded by a local legend claiming that thousands of egg yolks were used in the construction of the facade mixture. Within the lighthouse grounds you’ll also find a small chapel dedicated to St. Nicholas, which has become an increasingly popular spot for intimate and romantic weddings.

Cherry Street Pier in the state of Philadelphia (USA) is a former shipyard from 1919 that has been transformed into a vibrant, creative hub on the Delaware River. Once a cargo loading and unloading hub, it now houses art galleries, pop-up markets, and food trucks. What makes this place unique are the preserved old industrial details: think steel arches, rugged walls, and original train tracks in the floor. Artists work live in glass studios open to the public. You can also relax with a view of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. It's the place where heritage, creativity, and city life converge. In the summer, it hosts concerts and open-air movies. A hidden gem in Philly, full of atmosphere!
