Croatia's Major Sights

A noble and rich history marks a destination that has made it onto the jet-set list.

• Hidden in the southern corner of Croatia, on the border with Montenegro, enchanting Dubrovnik has looked out over the Adriatic Sea since the 7th century. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Old City reveals architectural gems behind its fortifications and along the narrow cobblestone lanes and hidden plazas. Don't miss out on a walk along its sturdy walls.
• A vibrant metropolis with historic buildings and a beautiful old town that spreads outward around Saint Mark's Church square, Zagreb is the centre of Croatia. Walk along the stone-paved paths of the Upper Town and descend to the new city where you can admire the 19th and 20th century buildings. Don't forget to stroll through the Botanical Garden and visit the Zagreb Archaeological Museum to view the remains of a prehistoric man.
• With a strong Italian air and centuries-long history, Split is in the north of Croatia. With a relaxed aura reminiscent of an island, beautiful museums and galleries and a cosmopolitan feel, Split draws visitors like a magnet. It is worth visiting the imposing palace of Roman emperor Diocletian, which has been preserved in excellent condition. You will find numerous shops and restaurants within its walls.
• In northern Croatia, on the Istria Peninsula, Pula is the most charming coastal city with exquisite Roman monuments, including the amphitheatre, which is one of the six best-preserved arenas in the world and resembles a miniature Colosseum.

Trip ideas in Croatia

The surprises held in store by Croatia's countryside and islands are endless.

• Don't forget to visit the Krka National park, which extends along the banks of the river of the same name and attracts visitors mainly because of the impressive waterfalls and clear-blue lakes that make up this natural wonder in central Dalmatia.
• One notable sight in Croatia are its emerald islands. Hvar is the most popular island destination, thanks to its impressive beaches, rolling hills, vineyards and the impressive medieval town with the cobblestone lanes and imposing fortifications.
• One of the most beautiful parks in Croatia and all of Europe and 130 km south of Zagreb is Plitvice National Park, thickly forested, with lovely lakes and walking paths. The most impressive sight in the park are the 16 lakes that are connected to one another through a number of waterfalls and were created by the natural deposits of sediment carried along by the waters. With colours ranging from dazzling turquoise to deep grey, the lakes are a natural spectacle.

With its cultural and historical richness, romanticism and relaxed Mediterranean atmosphere, Croatia is a superb travel option all year round. Book your tickets with Aegean Airlines and learn about the grande dame of the Adriatic.
