Dubrovnik has long been a favored tourist destination owing to its historic landmarks and distinctive Old Town. Moreover, following its first appearance in the popular Game of Thrones series in 2011 as the main filming location for King’s Landing, Dubrovnik has attracted even more visitors. The number of overnight tourist arrivals in the town peaked in 2019 at over 1.5 million. However, figures fell considerably over the following years due to the restrictions introduced by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the number of visitors reached only 786,000 in 2022.
Croatia’s offering for nature lovers
Besides sunny beaches and historic buildings, Croatian national parks also attract a high number of tourists.
