The chronology of building and physiognomy of the Danube basin leisure and recreation settlements on the Miroc mountain
Abstract
Brief review has been presented in the introduction on the related foreign researches, of the greater holiday resorts concentration, which are situated on the attractive localities, within the reach of the usual trip-recreational movements of the urban population, from many industrial European centers. It has also been underlined that along the coastal part of our Danube-Basin following Grocka-Kladovo direction, 49 localities are to be found on the already formed settlements for holiday and recreation. The very same are, in that area, considerably unbalanced territorial distribution, since that they are present in an uneven number at the outskirts of the municipal territories that touch the coastal Danube line. They are much further from its coastal zone. The exception is the locality of Petrovo Selo which is located in the north-western territory part of the municipality of Kladovo. Three clearly close holiday resorts ("Dobra Voda", "Bare" and "Poljana") have been gathered spatially on relatively low (400-450 m altitude), north-eastern slopes of mountain Miroc. Thus they make the region of Miroc very attractive for resort and recreation, which is being treated mainly from the aspect of important geographical touristic characteristics. They are consisting of different number recently built and previously inhabited old houses, which have been refurbished (remodeled). They are also distinctive regarding their spatial disposition, considering its particular settlement spreading. Therefore they are mutually differentiated as by their chronological characteristics of building, general spatial physiognomy so in the respect of morpho-typological modification in the sub-mountain terrain of mountain Miroc.
