Croatia

Jewel of the Adriatic

One night’s ferry or bus ride away from the tourist-packed peninsula of Italy , awaits this idyllic seaside nation, with its crystal-clear waters, endless coastline, and medieval charm. Without a doubt, one of this country’s highlights is the stunningly beautiful old town of Dubrovnik, which juts out into the Adriatic Sea near Croatia’s southern border. Here, visitors can sample traditional recipes accented by freshly caught seafood and indulge their taste for nightlife in the city’s many pubs and bars. The coastal region is also home to several of Croatia’s national parks, including Brijuni and the Plitvice waterfalls, which are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Zagreb, the national capital, is an appealing place to visit because of its scenic parks and plazas and its extensive public transportation network. Plus, day trips are available to neighboring towns like Karlovac and Samoor or to Jarun Lake, a popular recreational spot on the city’s outskirts.
