The Pearl of the Adriatic 亞得里亞海的明珠――克羅埃西亞 |
Many people are now visiting Croatia, a country rich in history and natural beauty. After its brutal War of Independence ended in 1995 with a decisive victory over Yugoslavia, Croatia began the task of rebuilding a nation that was torn apart. While this process is still ongoing, tourism has soared due to the country's expansive coastline with many islands, inlets, and well-preserved Renaissance towns. As a matter of fact, Croatia has been near the top of many travel bloggers' must-visit lists for the past few years. It seems as though the more people go to Croatia, the more their friends want to do the same after hearing about what a wonderful time they had. Crystal-clear waters and numerous waterfalls can be found at the 16 lakes of the Plitvice Lakes National Park. This is the largest park in Croatia and has many breathtaking views to take in. One of the most distinctive features of these lakes is that they are always evolving because they are all interconnected. This means that in some places, new waterfalls can spring up, while in others, they dry up. Each time a tourist visits Plitvice, the scenery is different. The beauty of Croatia is also prevalent in Dubrovnik, a city British poet Lord Byron dubbed "the pearl of the Adriatic.&qu ot; The shapes and scents, along with the friendly locals, make visiting this walled city truly unforgettable. 1.

克羅埃西亞在 1995 年以一場決定性的勝利戰勝南斯拉夫,結束血腥的獨立戰爭,之後開始重建飽受戰爭摧殘的國家任務。雖然重建過程仍持續進行,但該國廣闊的海岸線、眾多島嶼和水灣,以及保存良好的文藝復興時期的城鎮,早已讓當地觀光業蓬勃發展。事實上,近年來克羅埃西亞幾乎成為許多旅遊部落客必定造訪名單上的首選。彷彿越多人去過這個國家,就有越多他們的朋友在聆聽完那段旅遊的美好時光後也想到此一遊。 在普利特維斯國家公園的 16 座湖泊裡,能發現清澈無比的湖水和為數眾多的瀑布。這是克羅埃西亞最大的公園,在此能欣賞許多令人嘆為觀止的景色。這些湖泊最特殊的特色之一就是:它們因為彼此相互連接而一直發展出不同的地貌。這意味著有些地方會突然冒出新瀑布,但其他地方的瀑布卻會枯竭。遊客每回造訪普利特維斯國家公園,它的景致總有不同。克羅埃西亞的美麗風光在杜布羅夫尼克亦隨處可見,英國詩人拜倫稱這個城市為『亞得里亞海的明珠』。這座城市的樣貌、氣息以及友善的當地人,著實讓人難以忘懷遊歷這座城牆聳立的城市。
