Croatia

Picture
Croatia is a small country with beautiful nature, interesting tradition and past, rich cultural heritage, diverse gastronomy…


Croatia has a favorable geographic position since it is situated in the southeast of Europe, where the Mediterranean, Middle Europe and Southeast Europe (the Balkans) meet. With its 1.185 islands, islets and rocks, numerous bays, coves and beaches, Croatia has one of the most indented coasts in the Mediterranean and rightly deserves to be called the country with a thousand islands.

There are 8 national parks in Croatia, their untouched nature occupies almost 8% of Croatia's surface area. The national parks are the following: Brijuni, Kornati, Krka, Mljet, Paklenica,Plitvice Lakes, Risnjak and North Velebit.

Croatia is the country with the biggest number of protected non-material cultural phenomena in Europe - Festa Sv. Vlaha (St.Blaise Celebration Day), lacemaking in Lepoglava and islands of Hvar and Pag, zvončari (bellmen) from the Kastav area, the cross procession, overtone singing and playing the Istrian scale, spring procession of Ljelje (queens) and traditional manufacturing of wooden toys from Hrvatsko zagorje.
