Croatia | A 14-day journey through 5 cities, who touched my DNA remains a secret

| A 14-day journey through 5 cities, who touched my DNA remains a secret. Europe travels, and the call for Croatia is getting louder! Not only does it have the solemnity of ancient Rome, the romance of France, but its seas rival the Maldives, and its sunny beaches are on par with Hawaii. Every day in Croatia is undoubtedly accompanied by sunshine. Day1-2: Zagreb :Esplanade Zagreb Hotel Like many medieval cities, Zagreb is famous for its citywalk! Starting from Jelačić Square, I wandered through the 'mosaic' church, the Museum of Broken Relationships, coffee bar streets, and Dolac Market, among others~ Of course, you can also hop on a blue tram and feel the playfulness of this ancient city. Day 3-5: Hum - Rovinj - Istrian Peninsula :Grand Park Hotel Rovinj Leaving Zagreb for Rovinj takes about 4 hours! The first stop is one of Croatia's four major wine regions, a small town in the valley, where we visit vineyards and wine tasting, followed by a beautiful vineyard wine lunch, Italian romance at its best. In the afternoon, after a 2.5-hour drive through Kvarner Bay and across the Istrian Peninsula, enjoy afternoon tea in Hum - the world's smallest city that holds a Guinness World Record (besides coffee and snacks, try Hum's homemade honey brandy). About an hour's drive later, you reach Rovinj, where you start a 2-day journey of the artistic atmosphere of Italy's Tuscany and the romantic charm of Venice. Day6-7: Zadar - Split - Hvar Island :Maslina Resort After lunch in the old town of Zadar, stroll by the sea to check out the 'Sea Organ'. Then arrive in Split, take a boat to Hvar Island and check into the hotel! The next day, start a holiday on the island, swimming, diving, snorkeling, surfing, windsurfing, kayaking, paddleboarding, island hopping, exploring the magical underwater caves - Blue Cave & Green Cave, fishing, yacht parties... Day8-10: Dubrovnik :Villa Dubrovnik Tall city walls, monasteries, medieval churches... make up the beauty of Dubrovnik, and with popular TV series like 'Game of Thrones' filmed here, it's hard to resist visiting~ Walking the city walls around the old town is a must~ Additionally, an even better viewpoint is located north of the city walls on Mount Srđ, from the 412-meter-high peak, the terracotta rooftops and church spires spread out like illustrations in a fairy tale book. Day 11-14: Montenegro · Bay of Kotor - Departure :One&Only Portonovi In Southeast Europe, you can see fjord scenery that is completely different from that of Scandinavia? And there's the full ancient charm left by the Venetian Republic, when night falls, the brightly lit bay seems like a world from a Hayao Miyazaki animation!

Many peoples doubt about Croatia cuisines!!! But I truly enjoy it especially the black risotto with the squid ink. The taste is truly remarkable especially the dish is taste of sea n rice mixed, highly recommended to anyone travel to Croatia. Black Risotto is ranked number 1 in top 10 food to experience n enjoy in Croatia Next is the Fritule - a doughnut like ball that’s fluffy and light. Sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon or chocolate sauce. Recommend you enjoy Fritule in the afternoon coffee break as “coffee + Fritule” - one of the best ever combo I tried
