Croatia is as beautiful as it is, as many natural wonders are visible here. If there is a heart shaped island here, there is also an island shaped like a fingerprint. Bavljenac Island is made in such a way that it looks exactly like a fingerprint. Actually, it is made of networking of stone walls, which is clearly visible like a thumb impression in the pictures of Google Earth.
Design made because of farmers
Bavljenac Island is located on the Adriatic Sea, which looks like a thumb or finger print. This island is one of the 249 islands of the Sibenik archipelago. This island was used for farming by the farmers of nearby Kaprije island. The stone walls built at this place look like fingerprints from above. It is said that these walls were built in the year 1800. These walls have been made with dry stone walling technique, which have been locked to each other with great care.

Walls have been built for 23 kilometers
Because of its special design it is also called Fingerprint Island. It is situated in an area of 0.14 square kilometers. If the stone walls are joined together, they extend for 23 kilometers. According to the Croatian National Tourist Board, this island was found on the Andreatic Sea and crops were grown here. The people living here were completely vegetarian. Most of the citrus trees are planted here. A network of stone walls has been built across the entire island. The reason for this is to protect the crop from winds. Walls have been built by dividing the entire farm into separate plots. These have been protected since 2018 and this place is also included in the UNESCO heritage list.
