Palić Lake

Petak, 24 Oktobar 2008

Palic, the 7 km long lake and tourist centre used to be an elite resort and spa at the turn of the 19th and 20th centures. The image of Palic has permanently been changing, improving and modernising, although it avoided the temptation of industrialisation. The two architects, Komor and Jakab, who left a permanent impression on the architecture of the city, also designed remarkable buildings in Palic as well, and these were also built in Hungarian art nouveau and dominated by woodcarvings inspired by folk handicrafts.

The Water Tower, now the symbol of Palic, was built at the beginning of the 20th century as a multipurpose facility: a wather tower, gate of the resort and a trim station.

Two open terraces embellish the front of the building and they are decorated by magnificently carved parapet. Right in front of the Grand Terrace is the tiniest art nouveau style, special purpose facility, the Musical Pavillion, which, in the spirit of time, used to be a vanue for promenade concerts.

A memorial fountain was erected in the honour of the completion of constructions in the city and Palic, which perfectly fit in the newly created atmosphere of the promenade in front of the Grand Terrace and the Musical Pavillion on the lake front.

The Women's Lido is another magnificent example of art nouveau style buildings. In the heart of the Grand Park these is specific facility, the Summer Stage, where the Palic International Film Festival is held every summer.

The crescent shape Lake Palic is of Aeolic origin and lies eastwards from Subotica in lowland.

The Palic area is under protection in order to preserve its eco – system ( the lakes, the habitats, the Park, ZOO ).
