We compare the Ukrainian and Yugoslav experience.
The Kupari resort was built for the elite of the Yugoslav People’s Army, and it was destroyed by it. In the 1960s, at one of the best beaches of Adriatic, not far from Dubrovnik, four huge hotels, the personal residence of Marshal Tito and a camping for four and a half thousand guests were built on one of the best beaches of Adriatic. All this socialist splendor was built around a complex of several villas and an elegant Grand hotel, built in 1919 by a Czech investor.
In the fall of 1991, Yuna and Serbian parallers began a military operation to destroy the Dubrovnik, the ships entered the bay. On October 4, the shelling of the resort buildings began from the sea, which the Croatian police tried to protect. After 20 days, the Serbian sea landing took destroyed hotels. When the Croats returned to Kupari in May 1992, they found that valuables were taken out, the interiors were destroyed, there were traces of fires that were qualified as the results of the burning of phosphorus bombs. From 1998 to 2001, the Base of the Croatian Army was located in three hotels. The local population gradually carried out tiles, plumbing, equipment from damaged buildings, and nature destroyed architecture. Now ivy is curling in the bowling halls, trees grow in the dining rooms, stray cats are sitting in the bars. Local teams train in surviving gyms, paintball lovers are shooting in picturesque ruins, graffitors paint concrete surfaces. The Kupari Beach is popular with tourists, and the most surrealist in this story is sunbathing people against the backdrop of dilapidated hotels. Kupari remains a monstrous monument to the past war. Time continues its destructive work here.
On Trevl-sites, Kupari is called a ghost resort and urge to visit this creepy place in the framework of extreme tourism, as evidence of the “Last War in Europe”. “The last chance to experience the horrors of war” - this advertising phrase seems quite cynical. Show more To curtail
