Novigrad _ Gate to heaven.jpg
Novigrad, Croatia

As you walk through the narrow streets of Mediterranean cities, some of the streets lead directly to the sea and all of a sudden you are shown a beautiful scene ... almost divine. The photo was taken in Novigrad, a beautiful seaside town in Istria, Croatia.

That’s a pretty seascape and I like how you framed it using the stone walls which effect actually makes me feel I’m right there watching the sea reflecting the sun. I am daydreaming again 😊 I’ve not been to Novigrad in Istria which I am pleased to find out is a very authentic town actually, the very opposite to what its name means.

Thanks for your kind comment, @petface. I guess the name probably originates from Greek name Neapolis ... that's how Novigrad was called back in the 5th and 6th century.

That is really lovely scene, like these stone wall, actually the boat and sea look like in their own frame :)

Thank you, @stef1 ... I'm glad you like. That was the idea ... to stone-frame the sea and the sailing boat.

I have to add this one to booming account, can't resist :)
