In northern Croatia, walking along the beach requires wearing good shoes. The descents to the sea are often sharp and steep, but the lack of loose sand is fully compensated by the beauty of the jagged coast. The Croatian coastline is exceptionally varied, and the water washing the beaches is warm and clear. The holiday of your life can be not so much a stay in one of the tourist pearls of this beautiful country, but a leisurely walk along the coastline. There is something intriguing behind every corner and the people are warm and friendly.

In Romania, at the foot of the Carpathians, there is a city that greets visitors with large white letters. It is Brasov, which, in the image of Hollywood, placed its name on a green hill. One of the most beautiful cities in Transylvania - Brasov lies at the foot of the menacing mountains. There is a street claiming to be the narrowest in Europe, i.e. Strada Sforii (Sznurowa Street), not exceeding 132 cm wide. These are not all the "best" that are associated with the city. In Brasov's Black Church, one of the main attractions of the region, you can admire the largest organ in Transylvania. They consist of 4,000 pipes. The temple also has the heaviest bell in Romania, weighing almost 6.3 tons.

Brasov in Romania - almost like Hollywood

There is a place where gigantic rocks covered with moss emerge from above the foamed water surface. Their juicy green harmonizes wonderfully with the turquoise water. This is the Cliffs of Moher, the pearl of the Irish coast. The Cliffs of Moher (Cliffs of Moher) is one of Ireland's greatest tourist attractions. Made of sandstone and limestone, they stretch for about 8 kilometers and reach a height of 214 meters at the highest point. It was created by the power of nature - rainwater was gradually washing away the limestones, carving fancy forms in the rock. They are part of the Burren and are found in the West of Ireland, County Clare.

On the other side of the Mediterranean Sea is a huge continent, still alien and exotic to most Europeans. Its largest country is Algeria, with hectares of deserts and semi-deserts. Algeria is a country that has a lot to offer tourists, although at the same time "difficult", both due to the political situation and the fact that it is a relatively conservative country in terms of religion. Foreigners must comply with the rules in force therein, incl. women are not allowed to enter some temples, they are also not allowed to appear in public in inappropriate clothing (e.g. bathing suit, bare knees and shoulders, etc.).

The fourth largest commercial port in Europe is located on the Black Sea in Romania. It is a famous and increasingly popular tourist destination, and it is called Constana. A long time ago, the Roman elegic and poet Ovid was exiled to Romanian Constana and spent the last years of his life there. Today it is hard to believe that a stay in this beautiful seaside resort could be a punishment for anyone. Constana is Romania's second largest city, and as a port connected to the Danube, it is the main transit hub for the Danube countries.

With the sad reputation of the poorest country in Europe, Moldova is slowly being discovered by tourists. It fully deserves attention, repaying it with wonderful landscapes in the silence of the fields. Moldova is not only a country of grapevines, but also an attractive tourist country, despite its poverty. The landscape consists of vineyards, hectares of fields stretching gently to the horizon and colorfully decorated wells standing by the roads. Driving from Ukraine towards Romania, we can stop for a moment in several places worth visiting.

Hospitable guesthouse owners, beautiful views, sun and beach - in other words, the charms of southern Dalmatia. All this can be found on the picturesque island of Korcula. The May weekend is getting closer and it's high time to decide where to spend it this year. Maybe with friends for a barbecue, or maybe with family on a short trip abroad? If we are more inclined to the second option, one of the ideas worth considering is a trip to Croatia, to the island of Korcula (Korčula). Keanu Reeves fans will surely remember the 1995 movie "Walk in the Clouds" . The romantic production was filmed in Californian vineyards, where mist spread over them in the morning, wrapping them in a milky duvet (hence the title). But you don't have to go all the way to Pasadena to be able to walk in the clouds - literally and figuratively. On the European continent, and more specifically in Croatia, we find mountain passes stretching above the cloud line. Driving them provides an amazing experience, and the farther, the more beautiful. When you go down the serpentines meandering around the mountains and in the mountains themselves, there is a vastness of azure water interspersed with small, charming islands in front of your eyes.

Walks over the precipice, Hanging Houses and Gothic temples are among the many attractions that await tourists in the Spanish town of Cuenca. Here we find peace and adrenaline, nature and history. Spain has much more to offer than beaches and siesta. Tourists who prefer long walks (not necessarily a boardwalk as smooth as a table) will sooner or later find their way to the central part of the country, to the Castilla-La Mancha region. Here, on the Jucar River, the small town of Cuenca is located. As it is located quite far from the main roads, you can rest there in silence.

The landscape is made up of wide beaches and rocky shores, and the coastline is an impressive 1,040 km. One of the must-see towns on the island is Rethymno (Rethymnon), a tourist resort with a 13 km long beach stretching almost from the center.

Not everyone at school liked reading Greek myths. Today, however, you can notice a clear trend referring to antiquity - for example in Hollywood film productions created on a grand scale. The times of heroes and demigods have always fascinated people, especially today, when we have learned to use the achievements of technology instead of our own muscles. One of the most popular myths is the story of Theseus and Ariadne. The father of the Cretan princess, Minos, ruled his territory from the palace of Knossos. Dozens of corridors resembling a huge maze ran under the magnificent structure. It is said that this is where a half-man half-bull, the Minotaur, lived.
