Travel photo gallery: Slovenia and Croatia 2024
Thanks to our travel photo correspondent + travel photographer, Shin Hae-Kyung, we can share these gorgeous photos taken from Slovenia and Croatia.
Slovenia- Known for their high elevation, Slovenia has many beautiful mountains.

Croatia- Herbs and plants were grown near the windows for easy access.
Slovenia- Beautiful caves are open for tourists to go explore!
Croatia- This friendly cat that lives inside a local ice cream shop seemed to spend her time enjoying the sunshine.
Croatia- Some residents brought out their plants during the day--so they can grow better. But can you imagine carrying one of these plants upstairs all by yourself on a weekly basis?
Croatia- Croatia's Adriatic coastline is world famous for its beauty.
Croatia- The nighttime view isn't bad either.
Croatia
Croatia- Many resorts and hotels had very "European-looking" landscapes.

Croatia- Rock pigeons (just like everywhere else) can be seen walking and thriving in many villages all across Croatia. These city-dwellers have gotten used to exploring & building nests by carefully examining very old buildings and roofs.

During this trip, Hae-Kyung visited Slovenia, Croatia, and Hungary. On our recent video call with her, we asked her which (out of these three countries) country she personally thought was the most beautiful.
Her answer was, “I cannot choose. They are all breathtakingly beautiful.” However, she did say she had the least amount of fun in Hungary. According to her, some businesses felt a bit predatory towards tourists with their pricing—which left a little icky feeling in her memory.
