Croatia is a great place to live if you are looking for somewhere that has a lot to offer in terms of both natural beauty and cultural richness. In this blog we will discuss everything you need to know about Croatia’s history, food, things to do and ways to travel in the country. 

History

Croatia is a country in the Balkans with a population of 4.27 million people. It is located on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea, to the east of Italy and south of Hungary and Slovenia.

The official language is Croatian, a South Slavic language that has been influenced by other languages such as Latin, Italian and Hungarian. The Croats are mostly Roman Catholics, but there are also Orthodox Christians and Muslims.

Croatia has a long history of settlement by various cultures including those of Ancient Greece, Rome and Byzantine Empire. During this time it was invaded by various groups including the Goths, Huns and Avars. In 925 AD Croatia became part of the Holy Roman Empire until 1198 when it became independent again. In 1299 it was ruled by Hungary until 1463 when Venice took control for over 200 years until Napoleon conquered it in 1809. After this Austria controlled it until 1918 when Croatia became an independent state once more but had to fight for its survival against Italy who wanted to take over all of Dalmatia. It regained control over its territory after World War II ended in 1945 but lost a large part of its land to Serbia during the war in 1991-1995 which resulted in its current borders today.

Here are two of the best ones to visit:

Vis Island

Vis is the largest island in Croatia and it's located in the Adriatic Sea. It's a popular tourist destination due to its beautiful beaches and good weather during the summer months. The island also has interesting sites like the Franciscan Monastery, which was built in 1346 and features Gothic architecture, as well as St. George's Cave, which is home to stalactites and stalagmites. There are also several beaches on Vis Island like Zlatni Rat Beach and Sveti Stefan Beach, both of which offer stunning views of the sea.

Food

The Best Food To Eat In Croatia

Croatia is a foodie’s paradise. With its pristine coastline, world-class seafood and incredible local produce, there’s no wonder why Croatia is one of Europe’s most popular destinations for gourmands.

Here are some of the must try foods you need to taste when visiting Croatia:

• Ptica – A type of meat pie (usually chicken) wrapped in dough and baked in an oven. This is one of the most popular street snacks in Croatia and can be found at every festival or fair.
• Jota – A stew made with beans, greens and pork that has been slow cooked over the course of 2 days. It tastes amazing but it will give you the worst hangover ever!
• Cevapcici – A dish made from minced meat mixed with spices, rolled into flat sausages and grilled on an open flame until cooked through. Cevapcici are often served with onions and kajmak (cream cheese).

Croatia is a culinary paradise. The country has a wide range of dishes to offer, including seafood, pastries and desserts.

Croatia's cuisine is influenced by its neighbors, Italy and Hungary. It uses a lot of fresh ingredients, such as tomatoes, eggplants, peppers and mushrooms.

The most popular fish in Croatia is sardine. You can find it in many restaurants or on the streets during the summer months. You can also try some grilled squid or octopus on your visit to Croatia!

Croatian pizza is considered one of the best in Europe! There are many different types of toppings available at pizzerias across the country (ex: cheese only or with ham), but they are all delicious! If you're looking for something sweet to finish off your meal, try some strudel or baklava — both are traditional desserts that are made with filo dough and nuts!

Croatia is one of the best countries in the world to live and work remotely. There are many reasons for that:

• Low cost of living
• Good internet connectivity
• Friendly people

There are many popular locations to live in Croatia, but I’d like to focus on Dubrovnik. Here are three reasons why you should consider living here if you want to work remotely:

Dubrovnik is a beautiful town with a rich history. It has been an important city since Roman times and it still has a lot of historical monuments, like Fort Lovrijenac and St Blaise Church. Dubrovnik was also one of the most important cities during the period when Croatia was part of Yugoslavia (1918-1991). The city has been well preserved and it’s very popular among tourists from all over Europe. This means that there are lots of hotels, restaurants and shops where tourists spend money.

The weather in Dubrovnik is amazing throughout the year except for wintertime when temperatures drop below zero Celsius degrees at night. Summers are hot with temperatures up to 35 degrees Celsius (95 Fahrenheit). The best time to visit Dubrovnik would be from May until September when days are long and nights are short enough so you can enjoy them too!

Things to Do

Croatia is a country in southeastern Europe. It's known for its beaches, islands, waterfalls and historic towns.

If you're planning to visit Croatia, here are some things to do in Croatia for backpackers:

1.Visit Plitvice Lakes National Park

• Plitvice Lakes National Park is an amazing place and one of the most popular tourist attractions in Croatia. It consists of 16 lakes connected by waterfalls and cascades. The best way to explore this wonderful place is by boat. The trip lasts about 90 minutes and gives you a good view of all the lakes from above as well as from below when you get off the boat at one of the stops along the way.

2.Visit Krka National Park

• Krka National Park is another beautiful place in Croatia with a lot of natural beauty and wildlife. It's not as well known as Plitvice but still worth visiting if you're traveling through Dalmatia! The park has two main parts: Upper Krka part which is easier accessible by cable car or boat from Skradin village (40km from Skradin), Lower Kr

3. Rovinj

• Rovinj is a beautiful medieval town on the Adriatic Coast with colorful houses and streets lined with orange trees. The old town center is preserved as an UNESCO World Heritage Site, so you can get lost taking pictures of this beautiful place! The beaches are also amazing and perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring.

4. Hvar Island

• Hvar Island is a popular destination among tourists because of its stunning beaches and rich history. It has been inhabited since prehistoric times, but it wasn't until the Romans arrived that there was any real development on the island. You'll find plenty of historical sites here like the remains of ancient walls and towers along with churches built by Venetian merchants in the 14th century; these were once used as warehouses or even brothels! But today these stunning buildings are now filled with shops selling local handicrafts, art galleries and restaurants where you can enjoy some delicious Croatian food while soaking up some sun.
