 Go to Croatia, or Slovenia
 From the Rick Steves' series. Here in the land where the Adriatic meets the Alps, there are countless ways to have fun. Set sail on the shimmering Adriatic, to a remote island whose name you can't pronounce, but whose wonders you'll never forget. Corkscrew your way up impossibly twisty mountain roads to panoramic vistas of cut-glass peaks. Lie on a beach in the hot summer sun, listening to the lapping waves as a Venetian-style bell tower overhead clangs out the hour. Ponder the scant scars of a recent war, and admire how skillfully the locals have revitalized their once-troubled region. Unfamiliar as they might seem, Slovenia and Croatia are what you've been looking for: stay-a-while seashore, soaring alpine peaks, epic history, delectable food and wine, and some of the friendliest people in Europe. Rick Steves' Croatia & Slovenia offers a select coverage of Rick's favorite destinations in these two rising stars of the European tourist circuit: from the larger cities of Dubrovnik, Split, Ljubljana and Zagreb; to quaint smaller towns such as Korcula, Hvar, Rovinj and Ptuj; to breathtaking natural wonders including Lake Bled, Plitvice Lakes National Park, the Dalmatian Coast, and the Julian Alps. We'll also venture into two other striking and accessible parts of the former Yugoslavia: the Turkish-style city of Mostar, in Bosnia-Herzegovina; and Montenegro's stunning Bay of Kotor.
