Croatia stretches along the Adriatic coast with a larger inland area. The northern two-thirds of this border are formed by the River Danube. The country borders Slovenia and Hungary to the north, Serbia & Montenegro to the east and Bosnia.
The
country’s landscape ranges from small villages in the interior to the
dramatic Dalmatian coastline. Zagreb, the economic, cultural and
administrative heart of the region, sits prominently on the River Sava.
Dubrovnik was once considered to be the most beautiful city in Croatia
with its medieval walls and palaces. Split was founded in the 4th
century AD by the Roman Emperor Diocletian. The enormous palace he built
and the walled town now form part of the old quarter.
