Nature Park Vrana Lake and Maskovica Han + homemade liquer tasting

There are some places where as soon as you enter, you enter another dimension!! Such a place is Maškovića han in Vrana. In 1644, it was built by Jusuf Mašković, a high official at the Turkish court in Constantinople and admiral of the Turkish fleet. His life ended tragically when the sultan had his head beheaded two years later and he never got around to finishing it. Maškovića Han is the western most monument of Turkish secular architecture in Europe. It was created on the territory of the Ottoman Empire, a few kilometers away from the border with the Republic of Venice, which ran along today's Adriatic Highway, on the border between "East" and "West", in the area of ​​meeting and conflict between two civilizations. I suggest that we take a coffee break there and try the traditional baklava, as well as some other desserts in the restaurant's offer. Near are remains of the old town Vrana close to Vrana Lake, the biggest nature lake in Croatia, which is the part of Nature Park where we will take a walk.
