Driving towards Imotski, we pass through Kamenmost. On the right hand side of the road, we see the recently reconstructed 16th century church of St. Luke, built on foundations made of standing tombstones. The small old church stands as welcome sign to the modest but ancient country of Imotski.

 

Immediately before the exit for Zmijavci, we intentionally wander in the direction of Zdilar and Proložac, stopping briefly by the Dropuljić house, designed by architect Ivan Crnković. This lonesome and somewhat mysterious house has completely grown into the vineyard setting, as if wants to tell us that real architecture can sometimes be found far away from towns.
