Slavonia

Slavonia (Slavonija in Croatian) is the northeastern region of Croatia, bordering Hungary, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. (It should not be confused with the nearby country of Slovenia.)

Other destinations

 * Nature park Kopački rit
 * Nature park Papuk

Understand
Slavonia is a distinct region in terms of ethnological factors in traditional music.

See

 * The Kopački Rit is the biggest natural wetlands in Europe and the birdlife is spectacular. This enormous nature park, located around 15km north of Osijek where the Danube and Drava rivers flow into one another, is a great day out in the countryside - though bring some insect repellent as the mosquitos do bite!! There is no public transport to the park, so take the local bus to Bilje and its a 2-3km walk.

Itineraries

 * Stay in Osijek, the principal city of Slavonia and visit all the sights and cities around.
