in Southeast Europa. The park also many caves of
which only a small part is agibile.I lakes are formed by two rivers: the
White River and the Black River, which flow into the river Korana. The
waters of these rivers are rich in calcareous salts(mainly calcium
carbonate and magnesium carbonate) dissolution of carbonate rocks that
form the geological structure of sito.Questi salts precipitated by
vegetation, forming layers of travertine, one sedimentary rock recently.

Lokrum, Croatia.
Lokrum is an island in the Adriatic Sea 600 metres (1,969 feet) from
the city of Dubrovnik, Croatia. According to legend, Richard the
Lionheart was shipwrecked in 1192 after returning home from the crusades
and was cast safely ashore on Lokrum. He pledged to build a church on
the island but, at the plea of Dubrovnik citizens, the church was built
on the nearby mainland instead. The island is now a popular destination
with visitors to Dubrovnik.

precipitated by vegetation, forming layers of travertine , a sedimentary
rock recently. Over time, these deposits forming real natural dams that
act as barriers to water, growing by about a centimeter per year. At
one point the water pressure breaks these natural levees, opening new
paths in the ground. This mechanism, in fact common to all the calcareous water, in Plitvice has assumed a particular importance.The beauty of the National Park Plitvice, Croatia, is increased in the second round of the New Seven Wonders of Nature.
