Large town park

This guide to the Great Town Park in Tivat goes back to eighteen ninety-two, when an Austro-Hungarian admiral handed his navy captains an unusual standing order about what to carry home. It touches the noble family whose vineyards stood here first, the officers who oversaw the planting, and a question about whether trees from far-off continents could live on this shore. Best heard on a bench in the shade near the central pond.
