The 5 reasons to go to Croatia!
Between its paradisiacal islands, its surprising gastronomy, its vibrant capital and its impressive coastline, you will not know where to turn during your stay in Croatia.
By its coast, one of the most beautiful in the world
Your trip to Croatia begins with falling in love with the thousands of kilometers of rugged coastline that reveals hundreds of inlets, bays, beaches, cities and towns, absolutely exceptional! The landscape is usually impressive: vertiginous mountains literally plunge into blue waters. An ideal setting for taking the most picturesque photos. Another advantage is that you can combine visiting historical sites and towns with Venetian influences (such as Dubrovnik or Split), and being only a few minutes from the beach!
Its paradisiacal islands are authentic places of escape
Although the coast is undoubtedly one of the favorite destinations for tourists in Croatia, thanks in particular to beautiful cities like Split and Dubrovnik, in summer it can be a bit tiring, with crowded beaches and streets crowded. So why not escape to one of the country's 700 islands that reveal an idyllic landscape of rugged cliffs that plunge into the sea, deserted beaches, turquoise blue waters and exceptional sea beds? We especially recommend the islands of Vis and Lastovo, still very little visited.
For its surprisingly diverse and fresh cuisine
A trip to central and eastern Europe is often synonymous with a diet based on potatoes and cabbage! However, Croatia, despite its small size, offers an incredible variety of gastronomic specialties in each region of the country. Istria treasures, perhaps, the richest, with a quite marked Italian influence, which is reflected in a gastronomy based on delicious olive oil and local truffles. Slavonia is more influenced by Hungary, with its breadcrumbs and paprika, and finally the coast offers delicious freshly caught fish and shellfish. If we add to this that the production of wines is abundant and of quality, you will not need anything else to convince you!
To find out more about the last war that tore Europe apart
Perhaps the blackest point in the contemporary history of the country, the war remains on everyone's mind. Although Croats sometimes misfit the constant questions from visitors about this part of their history, they are not stingy with words when it comes to talking about the conflict. Most cities have museums that commemorate the victims, while physical scars are still very much present in cities that were on the front lines. Dubrovnik, which was under siege by the Serbian-Montenegrin army for months, is a good example, although Slavonia and its martyr town of Vukovar, in the east of the country, is undoubtedly the place where the war hit Croatia hardest. .
To discover its vibrant capital, much underrated
Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, seems, surprisingly, to be forgotten by tourists, who prefer (perhaps, logically!) The coast and its spa delights. However, Zagreb deserves better. The city center is a jewel of Austro-Hungarian architecture that comes to life at nightfall. As the most tolerant, progressive and young city in the country, Zagreb offers exceptional nightlife: be it concerts, or nights out on boats, bars or restaurants, you will undoubtedly find something for you. While those who prefer culture will be delighted by the many museums in the city. for you. While those who prefer culture will be delighted by the many museums in the city.
