Palm Vacations, Booking a Holiday, Tour or Vacation in Croatia

In my capacity as the UK Director of Operations for One World Tours Limited,
I am often asked about the destinations I have been to so that is why I try
to give a good opinion on those places. Here then, are my top suggestions
for sites to take in during your holiday in the Croatia.

Croatia?s coastline stretches thousands of miles, and offers more than 1,000
offshore islands. The country has a mild Mediterranean climate which makes
it such an appealing destination. A visit to Zagreb, which is the capital
city of Croatia offers itself as the focal point of culture and science and
is located between the Adriatic coast and Central Europe. Zagreb also offers
its tourists the Baroque atmosphere of the Upper Town. There are quaint
open-air markets which give the browser a variety of shopping facilities.
The country boasts many stunning green parks which you can visit including
places of interest in the beautiful surroundings. Trogir is situated in the
centre of Dalmatia and considered to be one of the best places to stop on
the Dalmatian coast which is on the eastern coastline of Adriatic sea.
Trogir is also a good place to be if you wish to travel on to Split, where
obviously you can see the Diocletians Palace. Split is the second largest
city in Croatia and is located on the coast. Being a very old and stunningly
beautiful town it is hardly surprising that many that visit choose it to
take advantage of the water sports that are available here. Located near
Sibnik and along the Krka River you will find the Krka National Park. It has
many beautiful waterfalls some of which have naturally fresh waters to swim
around in. You will see a backdrop of rugged limestone mountains and glimpse
the many islands archipelagos of the Adriatic Sea. Whatever your age it is a
fantastic place for a family to spend some quality time together. Another
National Park in Croatia is the Brijuni islands which were proclaimed as a
national park over twenty years ago. There are a total of islands which make
up the park, the largest being the Veliki and Mali Brijuni. The islands are
a haven of unspoilt nature pockets which make a natural home to a safari
park and a zoo. There are also traces of early neolithic inhabitation have
been discovered on the island but one of the most amazing archaeological
sites here is the pre-historic settlement on Gradina hill.

Alternatively the beauty of the Plitvice lakes and National Park lies in its
sixteen lakes which are inter-connected by a variety of waterfalls. These
waterfalls are and set in deep woodland which is home to a diversity of
wildlife, including rare bird species, bears, wolves, and deer. Zagorje
could be described as possibly the most idyllic county in Croatia, with its
rolling hills, many villages and small towns that spread out across these
hills and the rivers, creeks and lakes it makes a picturesque scene that is
fit for the finest jigsaw puzzle. In the past Krapina-Zagorje was a part of
the Austrian Empire making the majority of 40 castles and mansions built in
the country of this era. Some of the best known monuments are Veliki Tabor
and the castles of Trakoscan and Miljana.
