Standing tall on the Petrovaradin Fortress, it overlooks the city and the river below. When looking at the scenery, I get the feeling that it guards the time and reminds the city and the river that time never stands still.
A beautiful landmark. Worth the trek up the hill. Allows for a beautiful view of the river and city below.
Мне нравится этот берег Дуная - тут не только мой любимый ресторан, но и очень интересное место погулять. Много интересных вещей в крепости - сами редуты, да и другие вещи.
The "reversed clock" is the ultimate landmark of Petrovaradin fortress.The minute and hour hand on the clock tower are reversed, with the small hand showing minutes, and the big hand showing hours. It was created as such so that fishermen on the Danube river can see the time from a long distance. The building is nicely restored, and in the souvenir shop next to it one can buy T-shirts with it.
This clock is the most known monument of Petrovaradin: you can see it from afar since its colours are outstanding (of course, it was the fishermens' clock!). The landscape it's beautiful, Novi Sad it's at your feet and the Danube tells a story about different peoples, wars and heroes.
Часы, расположенные на смотровой площадке крепости Петроварадин, не простые, а с загадкой. :-) В них большая и маленькая стрелки поменялись местами. :-) Для чего это было сделано? Как говорят, раньше людям было важнее знать, который сейчас час, нежели минуты. :-) Так это или нет, но часы получились забавные. :-)
This clock has such historical significance and is a visual standout in Novi Sad. Sadly, up close and personal, it is in a state of disrepair. With all of the other construction going on throughout Novi Sad, the powers that be should spend $ on a few gallons of paint to preserve this feature of their heritage! The same applies to the Fortress area.
...a lancette invertite come già ampiamente spiegato.Molto bella la vista su tutta la città, in particolare sui ponti.Anche i dintorni dell'orologio meritano una visita, magari in estate e non in inverno come ho fatto io.
Ένα ρολοι που βρισκεται πανω στο καστρο Πετροβαραντιν και δειχνει την ωρα στους ναυτικους που διασχιζουν τον ποταμο. Γι αυτό τον λογο και ο μεγαλος δεικτης δειχνει την ωρα και ο μικρος τα λεπτα. Ομορφα σχεδιασμενο.
Indubbiamente guardandolo in foto non ci si rende immediatamente conto della sua particolarità che invece si apprezza vedendolo dal vvo. La particolarità è che le lancette dell'orologio sono invertite: Quella piccola segna i minuti e qulella grande le ore. Davvero singolare!!!
