Split
It’s no wonder why Croatia’s second city is one of its top destinations. Boasting the beauty of their 4th Century Diocletian’s Palace, this World Heritage Site, as declared by UNESCO, sits along the Dalmatian coastline. The city is a busy one day in and out as it is full of cafes and restaurants where you can relax after a day of visiting over 200 centuries-old buildings, parks, museums, and churches. Game of Thrones fans will also be happy to know that less than 10 miles from Split is the Klis fortress, the filming location of GoT’s city of Mereen.
Plitvice Lake National Park
The largest of all Croatia’s eight national parks and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Plitvice Lake should be on your list of places to visit in Croatia. Individuals who love to hike and enjoy being in nature would like to be here. The park boasts a series of waterfalls, freshwater lakes, forests, and an 11-mile marked hiking trail through which you can see the beauty of the park.
Zlatni Rach beach, Brac
If you prefer to enjoy your vacation with a refreshing drink on your hand while sunbathing on a pristine beach, you’ll love Zlatni Rach beach. Located on the island of Brac, Zlatni Rach has lines of pine trees and white pebble sand that reaches the Adriatic Sea. It is also a perfect location for water-based activities, like surfing and kitesurfing. The beachside also changes its shape depending on the weather, tide, and sea current.
Pula Arena
This centuries-old structure has been home to several Gladiator fights and is one of the best-preserved ancient structures in Croatia. The arena was also used as a Roman amphitheater and is one of the largest worldwide. Today, it has become the center of Croatia’s art and culture hosting several concerts, events, festivals, and other music and art-related exhibits.
Trogir City
If you love spending time in historical sites and bask yourself in the beauty of Renaissance, Baroque, and Roman-era architecture, Trogir City should be on your bucket list. The walled city of Trogir is a UNESCO-protected city and is also one of the top destinations in Croatia. You’ll see some konobas (restaurants) along the withered cobblestone roads within the town and quaint little coffee shops overlooking the vast Dalmatian Coast.
