Tips for your trips. Tourist information. Official websites.

Croatia has an impressive history, a fact that is best explained through the vast array of sites worth visiting. Most towns have an historical centre with its typical architecture. There are differences between the coast and the continental part, so both areas are a must.

Like Prague or Budapest, Zagreb has a Central European feel to it, with a large and well-preserved old town on the hill and a 19th-century city center. The Croatian capital is also the country’s largest cultural center, with many museums and galleries.

One of the best-known Croatian tourist sites is the fortified city of Dubrovnik (map) with its Renaissance culture. The highlight is the Sponza Palace which dates from the 16th century.
