Brijuni - "Heaven on Earth"
Visit the Brijuni archipelago that covers a group of 14 islands and islets of exceptional beauty. Brijuni were declared a National Park in 1984, but they are also known by its archeological findings. We offer you a guided tour to the island of Veli Brijun. You will be driving on a small tourist train through the safari park where various exotic animals (elephants, zebras, Somal sheep, zeba- the holy east Indian humped ox, llama, dromedary...) live wild. You will also visit the Byzantine castrum from the 2nd century BC and Roman residential villa from the 1st century in Verige Bay. Archeological Museum is located in the Citadel building from the 16th century and it is also a part of the programm. You will be thrilled by a small gothic St. Jerome's church with an exhibition of copies of frescoes and Glagolitic writings from Istria. The photo-exposition "Tito on Brijuni" is part of the tourist programm that will complete your visit of Veli Brijun.
