The Republic of Croatia is a Western European country situated along the Adriatic Sea and its hinterland. It stretches from the slopes of the Alps and deep into the Pannonian Valley to the banks of the Danube and Drava brooks.
Thus according to its natural characteristics, as well as its cultural and historic development, Croatia can be divided into three geographically distinct zones :
The Coastal region
The Mountain area
The Pannonian area
Like many nations in Western Europe, Croatia was founded on the ruins of the Roman Empire. When they arrived in the territory of present-day Croatia, the Croats were politicaly arranged in principalities. In 925, Croatian King Tomislav united the principalities, creating the first Croatian state. Later , Croatia kept its legal status and autonomy in the framework of the Hungarian empire, and the Habsburg Monarchy.
In Croatia, where the Mediterranean, the mountains and the Pannonian plains come together in a singular harmony of natural beauty, inside just a bit more than a hundred kilometres, you can come across excitingly different landscapes.
The Adriatic, with one of the most indented shores in Europe with its 1,185 islands and islets, of which only 66 are inhabited, is undoubtedly the most well liked visitor destination. Continental Croatia nevertheless , also abounds in beauty : it is a land of forests, brooks rich in fish, swift mountain streams and deep gorges of Gorski Kotar, and the magnificent Plitvice Lakes in Lika. It's a land of golden wheat fields, oak woods and wide brooks of Slavonia and Baranja, a land of quaint little villages, romantic castles and estates, and beautiful majestic hills and vineyards of the Croatian Zagorje.
The hottest probabilities for travel and tourism, naturally, is summer tourism. You may also enjoy the advantages of agricultural tourism in a lot of the villages in the continental area of Croatia, as well as of health tourism in numerous spas and thermal and mineral springs, such as Varazdinske, Tuheljske, Stubicke and Krapinske spas, Lipik, Daruvar or Topusko in the continental area, and along the coast : Losinj, Umag, Opatija, Crikvenica, Hvar, Makarska, Vela Luka and Istarske Spa in Istria.
If you're a gastronome and a connoisseur of fine food, or just like succulent and good food, you may certainly more than enjoy Croatia. Another attraction actually worth exploring are Croatia's wine basements. Red wines are best along the coast - Teran, Cabernet and Merlot in Istria and Opolo, Plavac, Dingac and Postup in Dalmatia. In the seaside area, some quality white wines are also produced, for example Pinot, Malvazija, Kujundzusa and White Muskat, while continental Croatia produces Traminac, Burgundac, Graevina and Kraljevina.
The Pisa Fly-Over tour includes a helicopter fly-over of the leaning tower of Pisa followed by wine-sampling. Two example land tours that are offered as excursions are the Very best of St. Petersburg and the Very best of Olympia trips, which both tour St. Petersburg, Russia and Katakolon, Greece respectively.
Norwegian's most recent cruise ship, the Norwegian Epic, is currently cruising seven-day Western Mediterranean schedules leaving from Barcelona and visiting Florence, Rome, Naples, and Palma. The Norwegian Sun is offering nine-day Baltic schedules from Copenhagen to Berlin, Tallinn in Estonia, Helsinki, Stockholm, and an overnight stay in St. Petersburg. The Norwegian Jade offers seven-day schedules in the Greek isles calling on Corfu in Greece, Santorini, Mykonos, and Izmir, as well as seven-day Adriatic schedules visiting Dubrovnik, Piraeus, and Katakolon through early October.
Norwegian Cruises fly and sail package for the Norwegian Epic's October EIGHT and 16 sailings begin at $1,449 when leaving New York's Kennedy airport, writes tagza.com.
