A Fairy Tale City of Croatia


            Hello people! How you doing? Let us widen our general knowledge today by reading my post about one of the most beautiful countries in Europe, Croatia. It is situated on the Adriatic Sea and has been a must-see places for the tourists for a long time because of its unique location, deep cultural roots and incredible history. So people, let’s travel Croatia with me!

            The first place that I want to introduce to you guys is Zagreb. It is a large city which managed to stay romantic and safe with the unlimited possibilities for visiting music and theater events, art exhibitions, museums, sporting events and enjoying pleasant walks, interesting architecture, plentiful parks in the center of the city, pedestrians zones and the atmosphere.

Dolac, the farmers' market. It is the most visited and the best known farmers' market in Zagreb, well known for its combination of traditional open market with stalls and a sheltered market below.

            Next, the Korcula Island. Tradition is alive there and kicking on Korčula, with age-old religious ceremonies, folk music and dances still being performed to an ever-growing influx of tourists.

            Lastly, I would like to introduce the city of Dubrovnik.  Regardless of whether you are visiting Dubrovnik for the first time or the hundredth, the sense of awe never fails to descend when you set eyes on the beauty of the old town. Indeed it’s hard to imagine anyone becoming jaded by the city’s marble streets, baroque buildings and the endless shimmer of the Adriatic, or failing to be inspired by a walk along the ancient city walls that have protected a civilized, sophisticated republic for centuries. Take the revamped cable car up to Mt Srđ; marvel at the Mediterranean lifestyle and the interplay of light and stone; trace the rise and fall of Dubrovnik in museums replete with art and artifacts; exhaust yourself retracing history – then plunge into the azure sea.
