That is what they call the tiny island of Galešnjak in northern Dalmatia. Its heart shape, the most perfect one known, had only been noticed in recent times, in 2008 via Google Maps, and the world media and social networks made it a sensation overnight. Beyoncé celebrated her birthday there, Michael Jordan, Jeff Bezos and who knows what other celebrities visited the islet, and many couples have pledged their eternal love on Galešnjak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003ePAKLENI OTOCI\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot hell, but heaven!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003ePakleni or Paklinski otoci, for local people simply \"Škoji\", are a fairytale-like island group near the island of Hvar, not far from the town of Hvar itself. No, their name doesn't derive from the Croatian word for hell (\"pakao\"), nor the Paklenica National Park on Velebit mountain, rather they are named after \"paklina\", a type of pine resin used in shipbuilding. These twenty islets and reefs are a paradise for all lovers of the Croatian Adriatic, from less demanding tourists to scuba divers and sailing enthusiasts. The shores of Pakleni otoci are rocky and highly indented, the passages between some islets and cliffs are shallow, and some are not even navigable, so they are not recommended for boats in stronger winds.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eSLAVONIA\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA golden history of grain fields and oak forests\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eSlavonia, along with Baranja and the Croatian part of Srijem, comprises eastern Croatia, a large, traditionally agricultural and culturally rich region. While facing many challenges in the new millennium, Slavonia has retained the title of the Croatian granary and the region where nature has been incredibly generous to people. The golden grain fields have often attracted people from the less arable, poorer regions to Slavonia, but also those with a strong entrepreneur spirit, in contrast to the sometimes easygoing and carefree natives of Slavonia. Even the storied forests of Slavonian oak, although they were mercilessly exploited by foreigners, are still there, and Slavonian oak is one of the noblest trees known to the world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48700299411705,"sku":null,"price":4.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0330\/5233\/files\/2026croNaturalBeautiesofCroatia-Self-adhesiveStamps.jpg?v=1784755334","url":"https:\/\/www.buyhungarianstamps.com\/products\/croatia-2026-definitive-stamps-natural-beauties-of-croatia-self-adhesive-stamps-set-of-3-mnh","provider":"Hungaria Stamp Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
