Zagreb, Split, Zadar, Rijeka and Osijek are Croatia's largest cities and continue to be the main economic hubs of the nation. Zagreb, a modern metropolis, bursting with life, history, culture and shopping, is Croatia's capital city. An hour drive, outside of the city, towards the Lika region, lie the astonishingly beautiful lakes of Plitvice, consisting of 16 lakes and numerous cascading waterfalls. To the south of Zagreb is located the region of Istria and Kvarner. Rijeka is the main city of this region and is famous for being one of the leading harbours for the Mediterranean Sea. Kvarner Bay and Istria Riviera were the initial areas to spark the tourist industry for Croatia. Arena, the Roman amphitheatre in Pula, the church of St.Eufemia in Rovinj and the charming city of Porec are just a few of the reasons this area brings back an increasing number of tourists yearly.

You will soon witness the passionate Dalmatian temperament when you visit Split, a city built upon the Palace of the Roman Emperor, Diocletian. The greetings to the sun attraction and famous sea organs are the modern part of the recently developed city of Zadar. Do not miss all the history the city has to offer as well, such as St. Donatus church, dating back to the 9th century.

Needless to say, the adventures, the gastronomical experiences, the luxury and the untouched nature that await you in Croatia cannot be described in words. Come and acquaint yourselves with the gem of the Mediterranean, Croatia.
