Game of Thrones Conquest, the Croatian coastal frenzy travel guide

Because of an American TV series, Croatia has become one of the most focused tourist destinations in the world. In the king of American TV series, Game of Thrones, the capital of the continent of Westeros, King's Landing, was filmed in the southern coastal city of Dubrovnik, Croatia. The azure Adriatic Sea and the red roofs of the ancient city walls form a natural painting, beautiful from any angle. If you choose a homestay on the mountain, you can overlook the entire castle, but going up and down the stairs is really tiring. You can stay in Dubrovnik for two days; the city is actually not that big. From Dubrovnik, there are two routes: one going south to Montenegro, about a 5-hour drive to the famous tourist city of Kotor; the other is the northern route I took, heading north along the Croatian coastal cities. Additionally, to the northeast of the city, you can go to Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina, also a famous tourist city. After the breakup of Yugoslavia, Croatia occupied most of the coastline, hence the nickname 'Coastal Frenzy'. When taking the bus north, you will pass through Neum, the only coastal city in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where police will come on board to check passports, and it will be over soon, making you feel sorry for Bosnia and Herzegovina. The northern route is Dubrovnik—Split—Trogir half-day tour—Zadar—fly to Pula—Rovinj, then take a car to the capital Zagreb, and then you can go to Koper in Slovenia, or Trieste in Italy, the latter being a larger city, recommended by the ticket seller for me to stay. Long-distance bus luggage is charged extra, but not much, Croatia is a bit expensive, and taxis are not cheap. Key cities: In addition to King's Landing, Split is the second-largest city and a historic city with many Roman ruins; Trogir and Šibenik are both Game of Thrones filming locations, and if you have limited time, it's okay not to go; Zadar is known for the world's most beautiful sunset, and the small town is very distinctive. I didn't go to Croatia's Jiuzhaigou, Plitvice Lakes, but flew directly from Zadar to the Pula Peninsula, where Pula has complete ancient Roman amphitheater ruins; Rovinj is also particularly beautiful, with the castle right on the sea. Overall impression: Very stunning at first glance, especially the beautiful seascape and city, but after walking a lot, it feels the same and a bit boring. Overall, there are no bad places along the Adriatic coast, Montenegro, Slovenia are all extremely beautiful, worth visiting again and again. People in the former Yugoslavia are tall and handsome, no wonder they have produced talents in the three major balls and tennis.
