Europe
most beautiful addresses to get into the sea
thanks to great coves. Split is a very peaceful
and pleasant place with its church on the
seashore, the historic buildings and the
cute houses that surround the island from
all sides. The moment you feel hungry, you
should meet the tastes of Kalyope Restaurant
located in a magnificent garden.
ENTERTAINMENT CENTER HVAR
Hvar Island is the heartland of fun in Croatia. Bars and cafes
are overcrowded espacially in summer nights. Main square
Hvarska Pjaca; the climbing stairs on the narrow streets drag
on but the historic atmosphere is so impressive that it takes a
long time to feel tired. Its castle and the dungeons inside are
interesting. Garifu Restaurant which is located in the coast side
is my favorite.
PLUNGE INTO TROGIR
STREETS WITH ICE-
CREAM IN YOUR HAND
Trogir Island, which is
connected by bridges to
the mainland, distinguish
with its historical
texture. It is already
on the UNESCO World
Cultural Heritage List. In
the middle of it, there is a beautiful square and a wonderful
St. Lovre Cathedral. The narrow streets have challenged to
centuries, it looks like it was built yesterday. Its ice cream
sellers are so famous, they are the most delicious side of
getting lost in the streets, absolutely try it. Also, you should
have dinner in Dondino restaurant. One of the most important
advantages of Trogir is that it is 10 minutes away from
Split Airport.
MARCO POLO’S ISLAND KORCULA
It is believed that the famous traveler-writer Marco Polo is
from this island. The house which thought to be Marco Polo

centuries, and go into the sea at Lumbardo. Memorize the
unforgettable tastes in the famous Cukarin Pastry.

PALACE WHERE THE RECTORS ARE IMPRISONED
Visit the Rector's Palace, where you will witness the glory of the
gothic architect and do not forget to visit the Sponza Palace in
Dubrovnik opposite the Column of Orlando. The city was the
capital of the Republic of Ragusa and was ruled by the rectors
at that time. They were not allowed to meet even with their
families so they could not act through their emotions and they
could be neutral, their feelings of justice does not harm in this
way. They were living prison life in the palace. In this region

cuisine, and Skola to suppress your hunger.

RAMPARTS AND CABLE CAR
Dubrovnik is a city that deserves to be
watched from the top. You have two
alternatives. You can get on a cable car,
watch the lights of the city while swing
in the space and have a break at the
Panaroma Restaurant. If you want, you
can walk long along the world famous city walls surrounding
the city. You will prefer Aquarius, Proto or
Arsenal for food, which you will encounter between
the ramparts that you can go up from three different
points. One important note; In Dolce Vita, the best of
Dubrovnik in the area, eat ice cream and pancakes.
THE GAME OF THRONES SHIP
Those who say I am curious about Dubrovnik from the sea can
do a panoramic tour with Karaka boat. The tour is 45 minutes
but you can prefer full day tours or dinner cruises at sunset.
If you keep in mind that the boat is used in The Games of
Thrones and The Borgias series, the journey can be more fun.

Croatian cuisine is dominated by the Italian tastes with the
influence of geography. They are also very successful in marine
products. Especially you should absolutely taste the ''Lignje''
octopus.The oysters of Stone Gulf are as delicious as to win
prizes at international competitions. In Dubrovnik they call
risotto to rizot. They say manistra to a vegetable soup known
as minestrone. ''The bevanda'' is the beverage that they mix
red wine and water and ''gemist'' is one of their famous drinks
made by blending white wine and soda.
