Visiting Croatia
Croatia is now becoming one of the premiere summer tourist destinations in Europe. Situated on the southeastern part of Europe, the country of Croatia spans a total land area of 56,542 square kilometers and home to about 5 million people. Each year, thousands of tourists visit the country to enjoy its pristine coastlines and sandy beaches. Croatia boasts more than 1100 miles of coastlines, providing tourists and locals alike some of the best beaches in this part of the world. This is partly due to the fact that Croatia shares its borders with the Adriatic Sea. It is also its close proximity to the Adriatic Sea also contributes to its continental climate.
There are four major airports running in Croatia situated in four important cities of it. Zagreb, Dubrovnik, Split, Pula and Rijeka are four above mentioned destinations for international tourists who travel by air. All major airports are not too far away from the city centers at an average of 20 minutes of journey.
Another favored means of travel to Croatia is through the use of the Euro Rail. This is particularly true among travelers who are planning to travel not just to Croatia but also to other parts of the world. This is because the Euro Rail offers travelers the opportunity to avail of the Global Euro Rail Pass which is not only accepted in over 20 different cities all throughout Europe. Availing of the Global Euro Rail pass is definitely more affordable than booking separate airfares to allow them to hop from one country to another.
Getting around the country of Croatia is just as convenient for travelers. Travelers can opt to go around the country by availing the travel services of local taxi companies which are available at any time of the day, or by renting a car either before departing for Croatia or through the concierge of the hotel or motel you are staying in.
Dubrovnik is famous for its historic touch, it reflects the glory of past. The old time walls and roofs look quite interesting here. St Blaise’s church, Jesuit church, maritime museum are the highlights for this city. Split is another city in Croatia to watch out for. It takes you back to those old golden old times, with archaeological touch. This city was built by a roman emperor named Diocletian in 3rd century. The Romanesque bell tower is the most vibrant picture one can witness in this place. Coast Istria is probably the most favorite place of outing for tourists. And it is listed in UNESCO world heritage sites because of its archaic constructions.
Dubrovink: This historical city offers travelers a spectacular view of buildings and clock towers, many of which are centuries old. Some of the top tourist destinations in this city include the St. Blaise’s Church, Jesuit Church and the Maritime Museum.
Split: Travelers are taken back in time during the Golden Days of the country. Built by the Roman emperor Diocletian during the 3rd century, the city boasts the influence of Roman culture in the rich cultural heritage of Croatia.
Because it is situated near the Adriatic Sea, it is not surprising that Croatia’s cuisine is mainly comprised of succulent seafood dishes. While you are visiting Croatia, make sure to sample “salata od hobotnice”, also known as octopus salad, which is the most popular dish in the entire country.
