New York was the host of the New York Times Travel Show, where the Tourist Board of Dubrovnik-Neretva County and the city of Dubrovnik exhibited together. Travel show had 14 pavilions where 500 exhibitors from 150 countries were presented. This year at NY Times Travel Show Croatia was exceptionally represented. At the panel called ‘The Hottest Undiscovered Destinations in Europe’ it was revealed that Croatia is one of the new destinations that tourists would like to visit. In continuation of show, Croatia was once again named one of the ten most desirable European countries.
