It has well preserved cultural and historical heritage and is therefore  inscribed on the UNESCO’s List of World Heritage Sites.

Here is Split.Split is the second largest city in Croatia and is the largest city on the Adriatic coast.it emerged from a settlement around a palace built by Roman emperor.Trogir is probably one of the best - and easiest - places to visit from Split and what a place it is to visit. A UNESCO World Heritage site, the town is situated on a small island (although connected to the mainland by a very short bridge) and its wonderful sights (including the must-see cathedral, possibly one of the best in Croatia) can be easily. covered in a day.Founded by the Greeks and then an Illryian settlement, Solin - or Salona as it was known then - became a major Roman settlement, the largest in Dalmatia.

Split is so beautiful and to have important history.You can see lots of things.So more information just visit http://www.split.info/ .

After the Belgrade my friend and I decided to go Zagreb.Because we were gonna meet with our my Turkish friends.We had promised each other.They also were on travel by car in Balkans.Turgay and Serhat crazy and funny guys.

As you see above, that part Zagreb's center .Zagreb is capital city.City is so regular and clean.Also this part's name Gornji Grad- Upper Town.There is a big and historical church.The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was formerly known as St Stephen's Cathedral. The twin Spires of the Cathedral are a landmark feature of Zagreb and the most famous structure in Zagreb. A cathedral has stood on this spot for hundreds of years.

The Tower of Lotrscak (Kula Lotrscak), which dates to the 13th Century, was built to guard the southern gate of the Gradec town wall. The square Romanesque tower once held a bell, which rang out each night prior to the closing of the gates.Visitors can climb the tower for stunning views over the city. In the tower visitors will find an exhibition gallery and gift shops.

The cobble stone streets with red tile roof buildings of the medieval Gornji Grad (Upper Town) are a beautiful place to start a sightseeing tour of Zagreb. Gornji Grad is home to the cities Cathedral, parliament building, numerous museums, and churches. This is the most beautiful area of the Zagreb and a good place to spend a day or at least a few hours.

We found Turkish Restaurant.It was so delicious.


After that we went to Donji Grad (Lower Town).Here is a relatively modern area of Zagreb, with museums, galleries and the National Theatre. This area, also known as the horseshoes, is spread out around numerous parks, which form a U shape.
