Geocache is hidden in a very nice village on the most southernmost part of Croatia, Konavle. Geocache je sakriven u malom i lijepom selu na najjužnijem kraju Hrvatske, Konavlima.
Dear geocachers, welcome to Čilipi, the one place that nurtures traditional values of Konavle that even today reflect through traditional cultural heritage and beautiful Konavle national costumes, well known for their elegance and characteristic silk Konavle embroidery. Our folklore group will introduce you to the traditional of Konavle, the southernmost region of Croatia through specific traditional songs and dances. We hope that your stay in Čilipi will always remain in good memory. Thank you for your visit and come again. Folklore manifestation takes place on every Sunday on 11.15 a.m., right after the holy mass, and it lasts from Palm Sunday until the beginning of November. Already from 9 a.m.onwards, one can take a look at the exhibited traditional handicrafts, visit the museum and taste the sweet traditional wine Prošek or brandy Travarica while klapa Čilipi (klapa is a Dalmatian a cappella harmony-singing group) performs beautiful dalmatian songs. Entrance fee is 45 Kunas. «Potkolo» – the oldest type of kolo (Croatian folk dance) from Konavle is the first dance that the ansamble performs, followed by the dance «Poskočica», and finally dance «Čičak». During the latter dance, young men approach the girls in a playful manner and take them for a dance. As a central part of the program, we will show you the wedding habits of Konavli. The bride and groom come out in company of a woman, the bride passes on zahari (special candy), and the host speaks out loud the verses of Konavoska zdravica (special traditional Konavle toast) and raises his glass in honor of the wedded couple and guests. After the toast, one has a chance to take a look at the dance «Namiguša», it is indeed a very interesting dance due to the fact that the dancing partners wink at each other. Finally, you can listen to two Dalmatian songs performed by klapa Čilipi, and you will look at the famous Linđo dance, with its extraordinary sound of ljerica from Dubrovačko primorje, what is certainly the most attractive part of our program. At the very end, we invite you to waltz with us, take photographs and share your impressions with us. Dragi geocacheri, dobrodošli u Čilipe, mjesto koje njeguje tradicionalne vrijednosti Konavala, koje se i danas odražavaju kroz običaje i predivnu konavosku narodnu nošnju, prepoznatljivu po svojoj eleganciji i karakterističnom svilenom vezu. Naša folklorna grupa će vam kroz pjesmu i ples, predstavili običaje Konavala, najjužnijeg dijela Hrvatske. Nadamo se da će vam boravak u Čilipima ostati u lijepoj uspomeni. Folklorna priredba se održava svake nedjelje od Cvjetnice pa do početka studenog u 11.15 h, poslije nedjeljne svete mise. Već od 9 sati mogu se razgledati i kupiti izložene rukotvorine, razgledati muzej te kušati domaći prošek i travaricu dok klapa Čilipi pjeva prekrasne dalmatinske pjesme. Ulaznica iznosi 45 Kuna. Potkolo, najstarije konavosko kolo je prvi ples koje će izvesti naš ansambl. Slijedi ples Poskočica, te Čičak u kojem mladići na šaljiv način otimaju djevojke za ples. Kao središnji dio programa prikazat ćemo vam svadbeni običaj Konavala. Mladenci izlaze u pratnji žene, mladenka dijeli zahare (bombone) a domaćin govori stihove konavoske zdravice i nazdravlja mladencima i gostima. Nakon zdravice u prilici ste pogledati ples Namiguša zanimljiv zbog međusobnog namigivanja partnera, te poslušati dvije dalmatinske skladbe u izvođenju klape Čilipi. Linđo ples Dubrovačkog primorja praćen jedinstvenim zvukom ljerice je najatraktivniji dio našeg programa. Na samom kraju pozivamo Vas kako bi zaplesali s nama valcer, napravili fotografije te podijelili dojmove.
