Tepljuh, Rural settlement in Šibenik-Knin County, Croatia.
Tepljuh is a rural settlement located in the northwestern part of Petrovo Polje at an elevation of about 400 meters. The village consists of scattered houses typical of this region with a church at its center and farmland surrounding the populated area.
The settlement developed as people moved into this karst region and remained administratively present through the major transformations of the 1900s. The village retained its basic structure despite significant regional changes during this turbulent century.
The Church of Saint Peter and Paul serves as a focal point where locals gather for religious observances and community events. The building reflects traditional architectural styles common to rural Dalmatian settlements.
The village is accessible by car through local roads crossing the karst landscape. As a small rural area, it has limited services and visitors should bring supplies for basic needs like groceries and fuel.
The settlement sits on a karst plateau with underground caves and streams that are typical of this geological landscape. This hidden geology beneath the surface affects the water sources and springs that supply the area.
