The story passed down from generation to generation is that this fortress was destroyed three times and rebuilt each time, and that its final destruction was following the ousting of the Turks from this area, thus sharing the fate of all the other fortresses along the Krka River. The masters of this fortress were the great Nelipi\u0107 family, princes of Knin and Drni\u0161.<\/p>\n<p>The trail leading to the viewpoint of Klju\u010dic starts at the village Klju\u010d, situated on the flat and rocky Miljevac plateau. Miljevci marks the peak of an isosceles triangle with sides of about 12 km that is made up by the canyons of the Krka and \u010cikola Rivers, and Mt. Promina. This region is made up of 7 villages and about 40 hamlets, and it is known for livestock keeping and the prized prosciutto and cheeses produced here.<\/p>\n<p>Once you reach the viewpoint, it is difficult to comprehend that people once woke to this view every morning. Klju\u010dica stands at the very edge of the cliff. On the left is the narrow canyon of the \u010cikola River and the bluish waters flowing through the strait. On the right, towards the mouth and the Krka River, the canyon opens wide, with a wealth of vegetation of grasslands, shrublands and groups of poplar trees lining the river. From the bird\u2019s eye perspective, from the shade of the small pergola, Klju\u010dica with all the vastness around it appears more like a castle. It is easy to imagine that even today, the widow \u010cika cries within, whose beautiful daughter Miljeva, according to the legend, was grabbed by a winged dragon on her wedding day and dragged to the bottom of Brljan Lake.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Walled town of Klju\u010d over the narrow \u010cikola Canyon<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1596,"parent":1355,"menu_order":6,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-bike.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1593","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1593","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1593"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1593\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1355"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1596"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/npkrka.hr\/en_us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1593"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
