Avanture

Two walkers, one drawn route

A curated food walk through Varaždin, told as a street map. Scroll and the pair walks it; each stop opens a card with what they found. The same route is readable as plain text, so it works with the keyboard, with motion off, or without JavaScript.

The pair

  • Walker A

    The tall one. Wide-brimmed hat, long scarf, satchel for the notes.

  • Walker B

    The short one. Beanie, backpack, and the shorter stride.

The walk

The route is one drawn sheet of the old town and the Drava. Scroll and the two walkers follow the terracotta line; when they reach a stop, its card opens below. This slice ships with three invented stops so the experience can be judged — none of them is a verified recommendation.

Skip the walk and read the three stops as a list

The illustrated walk through VaraždinA drawn street map of the old town and the Drava river. A terracotta route runs from the main square, past the church, over the old bridge and up the hill to the castle. Two walkers, one in a wide-brimmed hat and one in a beanie, stand at the start of the route. NTrg slobodeDrava123

The data

Every restaurant on every route will live in one searchable table with filters, sorting and a map you can open when you want it. Ratings, photos and accounts arrive in the milestone after this one, which is why the stops above are drawings with sample numbers.

What lands after this slice

  • One table of every restaurant, with filters and sorting
  • A real map of Varaždin, opened only when you ask for it
  • Photographs with a photographer, a licence and moderation
  • Accounts, and ratings that belong to the person who wrote them

About this slice

This is the first vertical slice of Avanture: one illustrated route, two walkers, three clearly marked sample stops, and the plain-text version of all of it for anyone who turns motion off. The walker names, the restaurants and the photographs are placeholders until a curator picks the real ones.

The route is drawn artwork, not geography. Real coordinates live in the database and are never read out of the picture.
