Book holiday in Croatia to coincide with Pope's visit

17 November 2010

With the date of the Pope's visit now confirmed, tourists who would like to see the pontiff may wish to book their holiday in Croatia to coincide with his trip.

Pope Benedict XVI will be in the country on June 4th and 5th next year, the Croatian Bishop's Conference has revealed, a report by Jutarnji List that is cited by the Croatian Times states.

Although it was widely expected the Catholic figurehead would travel to Croatia in 2011, no precise dates had been set.

A theme of family will be attached to the religious visit, with the weekend he is due to spend in the nation designated an official time for loved ones, the news source explains.

Some may expect the Pope to speak at least once during his trip, so booking accommodation in Croatia for the relevant time might be the only way to ensure attendance.

The UK welcomed the leader in September, when he made addresses at key London venues such as Westminster Abbey.
