Discover the hidden gems of Croatia's interior, from the historic streets of Zagreb to the serene Plitvice Lakes and the culinary delights of Brtonigla. Venture beyond the coast and experience the luxury and charm of Croatia's less-traveled paths with Prestige Holidays.
While Croatia's coastline garners much attention for its stunning beauty and crystal-clear Adriatic waters, the country's interior regions offer an equally compelling array of attractions that promise a unique and enriching travel experience. Prestige Holidays offers luxurious resorts that serve as perfect bases for exploring these enchanting inland areas.
Zagreb, the capital city, presents a fascinating tale of two towns – the historic Upper Town and the vibrant Lower Town. The Upper Town, or Gornji Grad, is known for its medieval architecture, including the iconic Zagreb Cathedral with its soaring Gothic spires. The central square, Trg Bana Jelacica, is a hub of activity, surrounded by quaint open-air markets that beckon visitors to explore.
Transitioning to the Lower Town, visitors encounter a more modern vibe with its array of museums, parks, and cafes. A particularly unique attraction is the Museum of Broken Relationships, an innovative space that displays personal mementos from failed relationships worldwide, offering a poignant and deeply human insight into love and loss.
The Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is renowned for its cascading lakes and breathtaking waterfalls. The arrival of autumn transforms the park into a canvas of vibrant colors, with the foliage providing a stunning contrast to the turquoise waters of the 16 interconnected lakes. The park's largest waterfall, Veliki Slap, stands at 70 meters and offers spectacular views from various vantage points. It's recommended to allocate at least two days to fully appreciate the natural beauty and serenity of Plitvice Lakes, making it a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life.
Nestled in the countryside, Brtonigla is a paradise for food and wine lovers. The region's slogan, "4 Soils, 4 Wines," highlights its unique agricultural diversity, which supports the cultivation of distinct wine varieties, particularly the four types of Malvasia wines. Visitors can explore local vineyards and enjoy tastings that exemplify the area's rich viticultural heritage. Additionally, Brtonigla is famous for its agritourism offerings, where travelers can savor traditional dishes and local specialties like the wood-fired boškarin at rustic farmhouses.
