Croatia Travel
Located along the Adriatic Sea in the Balkans, the country of Croatia, formerly a part of Yugoslavia, has become one of Europe’s top tourist destinations since its War of Independence in the late 1990s. It is a cultural melting pot, situated at the crossroads of Central and Southeast Europe, bordering Slovenia, Hungary, Serbia, and Montenegro, and offers an incredible history with various attractions to explore and enjoy up close. Apart from being home to over 1,000 islands, some of which are among Europe's most beautiful, and a countryside rich in natural beauty, the country boasts seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including spectacular, centuries-old cities that continue to captivate visitors and filmmakers alike with their beauty and well-preserved architecture.
Through this series of articles, I intend to share our stories and experiences of traveling across Croatia with our fellow photography and travel enthusiasts. I hope they help you plan your travels across this beautiful country!
Dubrovnik is unquestionably and unmistakably the crown jewel of Croatia's mesmerizing coastal medieval cities. That is why Dubrovnik has been used as a gorgeous backdrop in films such as "Game of Thrones," "Star Wars," and "Pirates of the Caribbean." Dubrovnik, sometimes known as the "Pearl of the Adriatic," is truly magical. Whether you're here for the first time or the hundredth, the grandeur of the ancient town never fails to inspire amazement.
