Below are pictures from Korcula Island, Croatia.

Korcula is the sixth largest island in Croatia. Korcula was first settled by the Greeks who gave it the name Korkyra Melaina or "Black Corfu" for its dark and heavily forested appearance. Korcula town is believed to be the birthplace of Marco Polo, the famous world traveler. His rumored house can be viewed in Korcula town, a place sometimes known as "Little Dubrovnik."
