The Ministry of Environmental Protection and Energy and Plitvice Lakes National Park, with the support of the US Embassy and the Embassy of Canada in Croatia, have presented a project for developing a new participatory development plan for visitor management at Plitvice Lakes.

Emerald City is a new American fantasy TV series developed for NBC.

As part of the activities aimed at reducing pressure on Plitvice Lakes National Park, representatives of UNESCO and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) - who conduct expert evaluations of UNESCO - were part of a reactive monitoring mission initiated by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Energy in Croatia. The purpose of the mission was to form opinions on the state of the park, as well as to present optimal solutions. 

There have been some spectacular videos coming out of Croatia in recent weeks highlighting its winter beauty. In what we plan to be our last on the subject, visit the UNESCO Plitvice Lakes through the eyes of a husky on virgin snow. Great video by Ante Fabris on January 17, 2017.

In the first nine months of this year there have been close to 145,000 tourists who have made 244,000 overnight stays, which is about 7,000 more than last year.

Cold temperatures have finally greeted Croatia, and while the cold tempts us with a cozy blanket and cup of tea on the couch, it would be a shame to miss out on the diversity of activities Croatia offers up in the winter time. While we admit it was nearly impossible to choose just 5, here are our top picks for winter activities you can enjoy throughout Croatia.

Environmental Protection Ministry says allegations that the Plitvice Lakes National Park will lose its UNESCO World Heritage status are unfounded.

Even UNESCO is threatening sanctions.
