Croatia
Croatia is a fast-growing European travel destination, as Americans are discovering a destination that Europeans have visited for decades. It has some of the most popular beaches in Europe, with the numerous islands offshore considered to have the best beaches. Croatia is also known for its history and natural beauty, offering opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, and mountain climbing at its many national parks such as Plitvice Lakes. It also offers the chance to learn about Croatian history by visiting its many walled cities (such as Dubrovnik, Trogir, and Korcula), Roman-era buildings (of which Diocletian's Palace is perhaps the best known), and religious buildings such as Zagreb Cathedral in the country's exquisite capital.
