Croatian Rhapsody-A Blue Dream Carrying the Adriatic Coast
Croatia has the charming Dalmatian coastline, the wonderful Istra Peninsula and cities like Dubrovnik. It is called the back garden of Europe and a paradise for Europeans to spend their holidays, even in Yugoslavia. At the same time, Croatia is a part of the former Yugoslavia, where we can see some shadows of former socialism.
If your dream of the Mediterranean is warm weather and sapphire water under the ancient city walls, then Croatia is the place to make your dream come true.
Dubrovnik is a port city at the southern tip of Croatia and is known as the "Pearl of Adriatic Sea". The sunshine, red roofs and blue waves in Dubrovnik all show the charm of a seaside town. Dubrovnik's nearest place to the sea is the famous old city wall, which surrounds the old city and is well preserved. Walking around the circular walkway on the top of the old city wall, you can see the castles, monasteries, baroque dome churches and Orlando stone pillars as far as you can see. There is a harbor under the east wall of the old city, and a row of benches are neatly placed on its aisle, facing the sea. In the morning or sunset, listening to the sea breeze and waves here makes time flow and comfortable.
Dubrovnik is divided into two parts: the old city and the new city. There are ancient castles built in 14 ~ 16 century in the old city, which are built on a huge rock protruding from the sea. The castle is made of granite, with a thickness of 5m, a height of 22m and a length of1940m. There is a moat around the city wall, land in the east and sea in the west. There are many watchtowers and watchtowers on the city wall. The city is well-preserved, with pharmacies, churches, monasteries, grand old palaces and spectacular14th century bell towers. Rows of European-style ancient buildings such as red tile houses along the hillside are mixed with tall hotels, and the colors are like strings of beads. These ancient buildings have different styles, including Roman style, Gothic style, Renaissance style and Baroque style. The style of streets and street lamps is also medieval, which is a well-preserved city in medieval Europe. Every day at noon 12 and 6 pm, the bells of 36 churches in the castle are ringing, and the bells fall back inside and outside the ancient castle, melodious and melodious.
The new town is built on the gentle slope of the central coastal area, with modern theaters, magnificent hotels and other tourist facilities. The islands here are dotted with lush trees, clear water, abundant sunshine and beautiful coastal scenery, making it a tourist attraction.
Dubrovnik is famous for its rich art collection and developed culture, and won the title of "Slavic Athens". During the annual 45-day "Dubrovnik Summer" drama festival, there are more than 40 open-air theatres, with the ancient buildings of the Renaissance as the background, and many wonderful programs such as classical dramas at home and abroad are staged. So there are many tourists here and the tourism industry is very developed.
Zagreb is the capital of Croatia, located in the northern inland of Croatia. Zagreb is a city with a clear distinction between old and new, and its area is not large. One step is enough to measure this land. Shangcheng district in the west is the mark of history, slightly higher than the surrounding area. Climbing along the steps of the city wall, the context of the city is gradually clear.
Medieval towers,19th-century palaces, open-air markets, and ancient St. Paul's church are intertwined, and the Gothic Zagreb Cathedral stands out among the red roofs and white walls.
In Zagreb, there is also a "Lost Love Museum", which is different from other museums that focus on culture, history, art or commemorative events. This museum is unique because it pays attention to individual feelings.
The museum has a collection of souvenirs left here by people from all over the world because of lovelorn love. It seems unremarkable, but there is a heartbreaking story behind each one. It will bring you a travel mood that is hard to find elsewhere, and perhaps it will leave you with a unique memory.
Chval is a small town, located on the south bank of Heval Island in southern Croatia, with the bell tower and window decorations in Venice. In Chval in the middle ages, there were ancient Gothic palaces and marble pedestrian streets in the walls built in the13rd century. A long promontory is dotted with many small and stony beaches, and there are some bars and cafes along the harbor, which are ideal places for people to relax and watch. Heval Island is increasingly becoming a tourist destination for fashionistas all over the world.
As one of the sunniest and most lush islands in Croatia, Heval Island really deserves its reputation. The island enjoys 2724 hours of sunshine all year round. Lavender-covered fields, quiet and peaceful villages and sloping fields shaded by pine trees outline a beautiful panorama for tourists.
Split is the second largest city in Croatia, located on the Adriatic Sea. This is a noisy and vibrant ancient city, with clean streets, thousands of years of ancient buildings and beautiful beaches suitable for holidays. The ancient Diocletian Palace is the center of the city.
Split is one of the oldest cities in this area. It is generally believed that the history of the city is more than 1700 years. However, the archaeological study of Aspala Toth, an ancient Greek colony in the 6th century BC, confirmed that the establishment time of this city will be pushed forward for hundreds of years.

The palace wall covers an area of 30,000 square meters, with a height of 17 ~ 2 1 m and a width of 2 meters.

Keep talking about Croatia, and you will immediately think of a Croatian rhapsody. This Croatian Rhapsody comes from the album Piano Player 2003 created by composer Tonci Huljic, with the track number 12. The music describes the tragic picture of the ruins in Croatia after the baptism of war and the sunset reflected in blood, tears and dust with a bright rhythm.
This melody is passionate and high-pitched, which is a new famous song in 2 1 century and also a masterpiece of Maxim.
In addition to this song, Maxim's adaptation of Exodus and Flying Wild Bees are also his famous works.
This piece of music constructs an impressive triad theme.
After the war in Croatia,
The smoke that has not dispersed is scattered in the air.
The sky is a little low,
I don't know if this is a sign before it rains,
Or smoke,
The clouds in the sky appear melancholy gray.
The collapsed wall scattered messy rubble all over the floor.
Dust floats in the air,
Finally, the dust settled and returned to the soil.
The performer of Croatian Rhapsody is Maksim Mrvica from Croatia. Judging from his appearance, probably no one will believe that he is a talented classical piano player. Standing 2.07 meters tall, he has a handsome face, the charm of a typical Eastern European man, an evil but cynical smile, dyed his hair, dressed in casual clothes, earrings, necklaces and tattoos, and looks like an idol pop singer. But he must meditate for a long time before playing the piano, and then sit in front of the piano and tap the keys like running water. Only in this way can people forget his appearance impression-Maxim in front of the piano is a brilliant performer. The most surprising thing is that whenever Maxim plays the piano, he is always "expressionless".
Croatian Rhapsody is Maksim Mrvica's number one work, which was specially written by Tonci Huljic for Maxim, and it is a must-have for every concert in Maksim Mrvica. The melody of this work is warm and stable, and it also shows Maksim Mrvica's love and attachment to his own nation.
Croatia is called the most beautiful place in Europe by the world, and it is naturally a very desirable place. If my dream comes true, I am lucky enough to go once. We must fully appreciate this exotic paradise on earth. If you come to Croatia, you will be surprised to find that most Adriatic beaches in Croatia are rocky beaches, not fine beaches. Although the stone beach needs to wear rubber shoes to enter the sea, there is no sediment and fine sand carried by the tide fluctuation. The sea here is as clear as mineral water, and the solid Adriatic Sea is called the Caribbean Sea of the Mediterranean Sea. Perhaps this is why Croatia bears the blue dream of the whole Adriatic coast!
The place where you have been is your world.
