358. Biserujka

Biserujka is a cave located 6 km northeast of Dobrinj, in the village of Rudine, above Slivanjska Bay, in the island of Krk, Croatia. An undistinguished stone house in the middle of a bare karst landscape hides the entrance to a cave 12 m under the surface. Although it is not very long if compared to other caves, only 110 m deep, the Biserujka cave has everything that is characteristic of karst phenomena. It has lots of typical features such as stalactites and stalagmites, and also a gallery or hall, which is suitable for the holding of concerts. However, because of the low temperature, about 13 °C, people cannot stand being there for long periods of time, so that only short musical pieces can be performed. Since 1998, the cave has been arranged for sightseeing and the hosts can take groups of 25 at a time

274. Slavonia

Slavonia is the agriculturally lush area between the Rivers of Drava and Sava, and bordering in the West by the River Ilova and on the East by the Danube. It has excellent soil and climate in which almost everything grows but the citrus fruit and bananas. Slavonia was part of the Triple Kingdom of Croatia: Croatia-Dalmatia-Slavonia during the reign of the first Croatian king, Tomislav (910-928), who was crowned by the Pope in 924. Later, when the dynasty lacked a male hair, Hungary forcibly annexed Croatia to the Hungarian crown after the defeat of the king Petar Svacic at the Battle of Karlovac. After the Turks won the Battle of Mohacs in 1526, the Kingdom passed into the hands of the Habsburg Archduke Ferdinand, the brother-in-law of the fallen king Louis, who had no male heir and so both Hungary and Croatia became part of the Austrian domains
