Croatia - part 2

Hi!

How are you? Today I'm coming back to my Croatia's description. So, let's cut to the chase!

Rovinj

Rovinj is a "Croatia's ruby", as some people say. We can see it especially bird's eye view - red tiles or Old Town. Rovinj is similar to famous Saint Tropez in some tourists' opinions. Undoubtedly, it's the most beautiful city on Istria's penisula, where's a lot of picturesque corners, especially looking at turquoise sea. In addition, Rovinj is a place full of interesting history. This city has an amazing climate and it's not a coincidence that it's a favourite artists' place.




Korcula

We can hear that Korcula is an island for those people who love adventures, as well wild beaches, delicious wines and bath in the sea. When it somec to beaches, we can meet with gravel instead of sand, what is not very pleasant for our skin. But we can stare at clean, amazingly turquoise and warm sea, and , of course, go swimming! :)
When it comes to adventure lovers, one thing is very interestung for them in Korcula - that's a place where Marco Polo was born.
For wine lovers, a lot of sophisticated wines are produced in Korcula. They have an excellent taste and beautiful colour.
For those tourists who love sighseeing there's also a lot to see :) A lot of monuments make this place a "small Dubrovnik". 
I think it's a great place for everyone because of its variety, everyone will find something for himself! :)






That's all for now. I'll finish Croatia's decription soon.

See you!

Croatia

Hello everybody!

What's up? Hope you're fine.
This time I've prepared a description of a new country - Croatia! Sunny and beautiful place with a rocky coast with a thousand islands make it a sailor's paradise.

Dubrovnik

When you are in Croatia, you can't miss that place! The best view over Dubrovnik is from a Srd hill - it'll stuck in your mind, without any doubt. Some people think that it's the most wonderful view all over the world. The town is full of antiques temples and tenements, which are on UNESCO's World Heritage  List. The most impressive are defensive walls. Nowadays, Dubrovnik is a prominent symbol of Croatia.



Plitvice Lakes

The most characteristic "croissant" in Croatia, on the map, of course :) There's a National Park, 16 karst lakes connected with 90 waterfalls with heavenly turquoise water. In addition, there are picturesque mixted forests, especially breath-taking in autumn. I think it sounds magical. :)





Hvar Island

One of the most beautiful islands, the best one in Croatia and one of the best all over the world. A vivid plant life, vineyards, olive trees and a smell of lavender. There are some interesting towns with antiques churches and deleloped nightlife. Sounds like a real paradise!



That's all for today. To be continued.

See you!

Cyprus - part 3

Hello everybody!

How are you?
Today I'll finish my description of Cyprus. I fell in love with this place and I can't wait to see Cyprus in september!

Petra Tou Romiou 

It's the region of Pafos whuch I've described last time. So beautiful scenery about this place was an inspiration for artists. There is a turquoise water and rocks off the coast. A famous attraction for tourists is Aphrodite's Rock, Greek goddess of love, known from Greek mythology.




Polis Beach

It's a calmer beach than the majority of them and so much less busy. It's a good place for water sports or walks at sunset time.



Limassol

It's a city on the southern coast of Cyprus. Limassol is also the second largest urban area in Cyprus. This city has many attractions for tourists, just like castles, museums, sculptures or gardens.
The medieval castle who was built by Byzantines was used as a prison in the past. Nowadays, it is a medieval museum with some exhibits, just like painting, cannons, statues or wood carvings.
There is also The Archeological Museum with a collection of antiquities. We can find there also coins, gold jewellery, sculptures, vases and many others.
Public Garden, which on the coastal road, has a lot of vegetation, just like cypresses, pine or eucalyptus trees. There is also a zoo with deers, lions, tigers, pelicans or birds. We can see also a natural history museum.
Limassol is famous of its festivals, for example Carnival or Wine Festival.

The beaches situated on the eastern side are better for diving amateurs because of its crystal clean and turquiose water.
