LOCATIONS
DORKAPARK –the Corner of Light
At the top of the peninsula on which the old town of Rab is located,there is the beautiful Mediterranean Dorka Park, located in thedistinctive atmosphere of the historic walls, and with the monument of Saint Marinusat its centre. The people of Rab are very proud of this stonemason from their island who founded what is today the Republic of San Marino back in the 3rd century. This breathtaking park will shine in a new light during the Kantuni event, when it will become the Corner of Light and its cosy setting will invite you to hang out and enjoy yourself.
MAHAČ VILLA –the Hidden Corner
Just a few steps away from Pjaceta in the direction of Gornjaulica, in a building on the left which today houses the music school, you will find the ‘Hidden Corner’of our ‘Kantuni’ event. Here, you will be welcomed by a distinctive ambience, wonderful views of St. Euphemia Cove, top-quality music, and an intimate atmosphere. Is there a better invitation than to meet us at the ‘Hidden Corner’!
SVETI IVAN –the Corner of Experience
If you continue down Upper Street (Gornjaulica), you will soon reach the westernmost of the four bell towers, and beneath it one of the great treasures of Rab’s heritage: the ruins of the Church of St. John the Evangelist, which provides a perfect open-air stage because of the nature of the setting. It is a special experience to enjoy superb musical performances beneath the huge bell tower in the historical ambience of the medieval basilica.
