Vela Luka and Blato, the two larger towns in the west of the island also have valuable heritage. Along Vela Luka (54), made famous in a beautiful song, is the most important prehistoric site in Dalmatia, Vela Spila. A number of ceramic, stone and bone objects from the Neolithic period and preserved decorated tombs (56) were found in the cave above the town (57). The picturesque Blato, in the inland of Korčula, once the largest town of the Adriatic islands, is today known for quality agriculture and preserved ambiental architecture (55). The two most distant islands of Dubrovnik, MLJET and LASTOVO are known for their natural heritage - the National Park Mljet and Lastovo Nature Park. They also have interesting cultural monuments, among which the most important is the Benedictine Monastery from the 12th century (74) on an island in the middle of the Great lake in the National Park (75). Lastovo, the main town which bears the island’s name captures us with its beauty. Located on the amphitheatre - shaped hillside above the fertile fields (73), it is known for decorative chimneys on the roofs of the houses (70), preserved traditional costumes (71) and a special carnival. The pearls of architecture and the old lighthouses from the 19th century on the most remote islands in the waters of Lastovo, Sušac (72) and Glavat (76) are something special. At the end of our journey across Dalmatia and Croatia it would be a sin not to mention the Elafiti islands in front of Dubrovnik, with magical old villas and castles from the period of greatest splendour of the famous Republic of Dubrovnik. Most of them are on the island of Šipan, and the most beautiful is the 16th century Renaissance castle – Skočibuh, which belongs to the Stjepković family (77). 123
