Plitvice Lakes National Park

This makes for our third consecutive day of visiting an astonishing national park. Plitvice is a must see, even if you aren’t that close:) It very much reminded me of a smaller scale version of Iguaza Falls with waterfalls as far as the eye can see. Similarly, it is also set in what feels like a tropical forest. How this area got created leaves much to the imagination, but any single one of these waterfalls would be a destination in and of itself, let alone hundreds in one concentrated area.

We did about an 8 kilometer walk (there’s a lot more than that to walk) throughout the park and took a boat ride too. They built a network of boardwalks back in the late 1880’s and because of flooding have to replace 2 kilometers worth every year. The area is rightfully mobbed with people. The waters look like something out of the Caribbean Sea, crystal clear blue with the never ending moss-filled hillsides with waterfall after waterfall (waterfalls are called slaps, which we had some fun with). Absolutely mesmerizing and a must for all to go and experience.もっと詳しく
