Croatia travel guide
If you’re looking for a cross between a continental and a Mediterranean European vacation, Croatia is a hidden gem just waiting to be explored. Located in Central-Southeastern Europe, with coasts on the Mediterranean Sea, Croatia can be enjoyed for its natural beauty and its rich and diverse culture. Croatia is a perfect blend of history, jaw dropping architecture, breathtaking views and pristine beaches. Read more
This beautiful country on the Adriatic coast is situated at the crossroads of Central and Southeast Europe. The Capital city of Zagreb is known for its ancient history, roman ruins and a developing artsy music scene. Cities like Dubrovnik, Zagreb, Split and Plitvice are more often the top picks and most visited by tourist.Most tourists will be attracted to the long and rocky Adriatic coastline, firstly for its natural beauty and climate, and secondly for the historic legacy of the powerful maritime republics which emerged on the trading route between the capitals of the Venetian and Ottoman Empires in the Middle Ages. Alongside its pleasant Mediterranean weather and rugged topography, the entire Dalmatian coast offers spectacular scenery, secluded beaches and turquoise waters, making it perfect for a classic sun-seeking holiday, while a number of towns are of notable cultural interest. The southern city of Dubrovnik is by far the best-known, boasting a picturesque old town of cobbled streets, limestone buildings, cinnabar rooftops and a serene harbour, all enclosed by towering ramparts. Further north, the island of Hvar is home to a similarly historic harbour town, as well as hillsides covered in pine and lavender. The region's largest city Split is also well worth a visit and can serve as a good base from which to explore the rest the region has to offer.
Further inland is Croatia's mountainous spine, the Dinaric Alps, a vast range of craggy peaks and limestone rock formations which provide a range of activities for energetic travellers: hiking, mountain biking, caving and more. Right on the Bosnian border, the mountains are at their most beautiful in Plitvice Lakes National Park, which contains canyons of cascading cobalt-coloured crystal-clear pools, separated by travertine terraces typical of limestone lake landscapes. The capital, Zagreb, is often ignored in favour of the Adriatic cities, but is an attractive city that is both historical and modern. The city is something of a hub, serviced by highways and Croatia's largest airport, and within the city is also good, with bus, rail and tram options. There are a range of museums and cultural sights to see, while nearby Medvednica mountain offers great views of the city.
