Perched atop a steep cliff more than 100m above the lake, Bled Castle is how most people imagine a medieval fortress to be, with towers, ramparts, moats, and a terrace offering magnificent views. Visit the castle which houses a museum collection that traces the lake’s history from the earliest times to the development of Bled as a resort in the 19th century. Enjoy a trip around the lake on a traditional boat made by locals which is only known at Bled, the Pletna boat. The origins of the Pletna boat go back to 1590, its size allows the transportation of 20 passengers. You should be able to recognize it from afar as it is equipped with a colorful awning that protects passengers from the sun and other elements. The Pletna boat is operated by the Pletna oarsman. This profession is very respected as it cannot be performed just by anyone. The title of the Pletna oarsman is handed down from generation to generation, which is why the profession of “Pletnarstvo” remains in individual families throughout the centuries.

Once overlooked by tourists making a transit for the coast, Zagreb has come into its own as a year-round tourist destination. As the political, cultural, and economic center of Croatia, the metropolis thrives with energy and is a must-see for travelers in recent years. Laced with Austro-Hungarian architecture, the city has been described as being similar to Vienna and Budapest. The city is full of museums, galleries, elegant boutiques, exceptional restaurants, bustling pubs, and beer halls. Zagreb residents are known for their love of the outdoors so the parks and squares are constantly a hive of activity as are the hundreds of cafes that are full of people soaking up the midday sun. Zagreb is ranked among the “greenest” European towns, in great part due to the Medvednica nature reserve in its northern part and its many parks. Zagreb is full of year-round events and celebrations including the Christmas Market, Zagreb Summer Evenings (various musical concerts), the annual Folkloric Festival (usually held in July or August), and various film festivals to name a few.
