Carved out of the Adriatic coast, Croatia is a country of walled towns, dramatic seascapes, and Balkan passion. Once ruled by countless kingdoms and empires, it fascinates with its complex history. Look for this legacy in age-old monuments gracing scenic villages and cities. Escape it on the shores of electric-blue lakes or rocky beaches, in breathtaking national parks or on magnificent islands.
