Plitvice Lakes is a complex of 16 lakes of various sizes that pour one into another, divided by travertine barriers.  Lakes are painted with an incredible spectrum of greens and blues thanks to the algae, mosses, and plants. Since travertine deposits are the primary cause of lakes and take millennia to create, they are one of the most significant natural occurrences. A thickness of 3 mm of travertine requires a year to produce. Additionally, all these natural processes are still in motion now and are continually transforming Plitvice Lakes.

Plitvice Lakes National Park is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, making it a living nature paradise. Visitors can explore the park's forest paths, meadows, and caves, and may spot the famous brown bear and other wildlife such as fish, birds, and small forest animals. The Lakes are also home to endemic plant species, adding to their value and importance. It is no wonder that the Plitvice Lakes were declared a national park in 1949 and were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979.
