balhannah Says: For me, driving through Turanj was a sad sight. We saw many homes with bullet holes, I guess the people too poor to have their homes re-plastered.We saw ruins and buildings in bad neglect, the area was a grim reminder of what a War leaves behind!
balhannah Says: This museum is actually located in the town of Turanj, which is about 10mins south of the city of Karlovac, in central Croatia, and just 10 minutes drive south from the main highway A1.Turanj is a historic outpost, south of the Austro-Hungarian fortress of Karlovac,...
Rusket Says: The Kalvarija area is very nice for walking / hiking. There is a cabin there which is open weekends in the summer season. It is not possible to sleep there, but that is no problem, since it's located quite close to the city.My wedding party was held in this cabin in 1973!
croisbeauty Says: Those who like parks will come on their own in Karlovac because there are many parks in the town and all of them are situated right in the heart of the city. Actually, there exist a kind of huge ring of parks closing waste area towards the river of Korana.
croisbeauty Says: The town of Karlovac has suffered major distructions during the war 1991 - 1995. Today, it is still under reconstructions, mostly at its outskirts.The city center is almost fully reconstructed now, displaying colourful facades of its houses as it used to be before.

Address: Banjavciceva 16
croisbeauty Says: There are numerous cute looking cafe-bars in the old core of the city with the terraces on the sidewalks. The old core is rather small and you can wlak it side to side in a relatively short period of time.You can enjoy in cold drinks, good music and nice looking youngs.

Mrežnica is one one the four rivers in the town of Karlovac and to me it is the cleanest one. The best and most attractive bathing resorts at Mrežnica re in the outskirts os the town. Check area around Zvecaj.
Watch the local people before entering into the water, because there are streams and other things with which one is not familiar.

say-no-more Says: there's a smal stream running paralelly with the river, on witch all sorts of different flowers grow, including these beautiful daisy

The main city beach is situated on both banks of the river Kupa, which is rich of water even in a very warm summer period. It is very convinient to those tourists who are coming by car from the eastern part of Europe, traveling towads the destinations on the Adriatic. The rivers of Karlovac are very inviting, stop here and refresh yourself before continuig you journey.

croisbeauty Says: Radiceva street is non traffic area and the main promenade of the city. This is where the Governor's Gate stood, the main entrance into the town in the medieval times. Most of the buildings here, on both sides of the street, are built in the Baroque style.
croisbeauty Says: Strossmayerov trg, which is situated right next to the J. Jelacic trg, is the administrative center of the town. The Town Hall building, in Baroque style, dominates the whole square which is situated centraly inside the six-pointed star ground plan of the old city core.
