Main entrance to Plitvice Lakes National Park — gateway to turquoise cascades, tiered waterfalls and sinuous wooden boardwalks. Photograph sweeping panoramas from viewpoints above the upper lakes, intimate long-exposure falls shots from the walkways, and reflections in calm basins. Best at sunrise/early morning for soft light and lowest crowds; late afternoon can work for warm tones. Visit shoulder seasons (spring, late autumn) for dramatic water flow and fewer people. Entry requires a timed/fee
