Summary
The project aimed to develop a joint tourist offer based on common environmental and cultural heritage in the cross border area of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. With the aim to improve the competitiveness of the local tourism economy, the project planned to brand and promote joint cross-border tourism product, the Roman road route Salona-Bigeste-Narona, and to develop tourism infrastructure on the route and on the historical sites of the Roman military camp Bigeste and Salona harbour. To support the established offer, the project increased capacities of tourist boards and cultural/traditional/environmental based NGOs, to enable them to create and promote new cultural/tourism products and events.
