SERDA BÜYÜKKOYUNCU
A country that experienced a major earthquake in 1667 and
besides eluded a war in the early 1990s. But by choosing the
difficult one, it has managed to preserve its history, renew
itself and became a center of tourism. The population of the
country that gave the name of the ''tie'' (kravata) word is less
than the big cities in our country; it is not even 4.5 million.
But the number of tourists is three times more than the
population. Croatia will be the address of 16 million tourists
by attracting foreign guests which Turkey has lost this year.
Croatia is a place where you can find everything you are looking
for a great vacation; from lush nature to brilliant beaches,
from historic buildings to taste stops. It has essentials like
everywhere.
YOU MUST SEE THE CAPITAL
Country’s capital is Zagreb... Some
love this city, some find it very boring;
i think you cannot decide without
travelling. Ban Jelacic Square is one
of the city's main spots. Tkalciceva
Street is one of the most vivid places
with its bars and restaurants, especially
in evenings. Another address
is Mirka Bogovica Street which raises
the city's energy with dozens of side-by-side coffee houses.
Dolac Market, Zagreb Cathedral, Markov Square and St. Mark's
Church should be in your list. There is an extraordinary museum
in Zagreb; Museum of Completed Relationships. Many
people from different parts of the world have sent their objects
about their ending relationships and shared their stories. It is
also a good idea to go out to the Medieval Lotrscak Tower and
watch the city bird's eye view.
Plitvice Lakes National Park
Every season is more beautiful than the other; the winter view
is also great, everywhere is white. You need to walk for miles in
the park, so choose proper shoes and keep in mind that there
may be precipitation in all seasons, including summer. It is a
1.5 hour drive from Zagreb.
SPLIT AND ITS
1700-YEAR-OLD
PALACE
Think of the surrounding
of Diocletian's Palace
as the center, life flows
here. Witnessing how
the 1700-year-old palace
is preserved to this day
is an experience you will
always remember. Diocletian, who built the palace and gave
its name, was the first emperor to resign from administration.
In the palace there are elegant shops and very nice restaurants
like Augubio. Diocletian has also built a palace in Izmit but we
have destroyed it.
VIS ISLAND WITH WONDERFUL COVES
In the Second World War, the island where Tito's resistance to
occupation and that the British navy has anchored is a bit distant,
but you know it will be worth going there. It is one of the
Vis Island
PARKS WHICH MAKE YOU FORGET THE TIME
Plitvice Lakes National Park is located in the first place of the
the travelling list. It has 16 large and small lakes in it. Breathe
the fresh air between the waterfalls and the parallel trees.
