you take in the grand views. 4.) Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin
Mary This cathedral is located in Dubrovnik, a city
of Croatia that is dubbed the Pearl of the Adriatic. It was said that it was
Richard the Lionhearted's money that made this cathedral possible to be erected.
This is also a tourist spot here in Dubrovnik. 5.) Roland's Column This stone flag staff is also located in
Dubrovnik. This is also a must-see monument when you visit Croatia. Roland's
Column is also called Orlando's Column. 6.) Archaeological Museum of Split The Archaeological Museum of Split is
recognized as Croatia's oldest museum. It features some of the oldest artifacts
during the prehistoric times and even has objects dating back to when the Greeks
colonized the Adriatic. One of the popular must-see objects here are the stone
epitaph collections that was found in Salona, and you should also see its
collection of Roman and Greek artifacts. 7.) Diocletian Palace This is Split's historical center and is also
listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List. It contains many ancient and
historical buildings. Because it is well preserved and is a wonderful sight to
behold, this has become one of the famous tourist destinations in Croatia. 8.) The Arena in Pula This arena is located in Pula and is recognized
as one the biggest still-existing Roman amphitheatres in the whole world. This
was saved from near-destruction when the Venetians took to taking the arena's
stones and putting them in their houses and other buildings all over Pula as
well. Now, this serves as one of the greatest wonders of Croatia. 9.) The Forum in Pula This is what they call Pula City's main square.
Here, you will find an ancient city hall that was erected during the sixteenth
century. What is interesting in this city hall is that some parts of it were
built using pieces of an old temple. 10.) Tvrda This is a defensive fortress that was built
during the eighteenth century, and this is located in the city of Osijek. This
is a wonderful location to visit as it is still a well-preserved military
compound that now houses beautiful buildings, and you will also find here the
Museum of Slavonia that houses artifacts that dates as far back as the Roman
era. What is unique about Tvrda is that, at night, it becomes alive as locals
and foreigners go bar and club hopping. Jonathan Williams is the travel writer for
