The island of Mljet, which is one of Croatia’s national parks, is renowned for its beautiful lakes, such as Big Lake and Small Lake. The remains of Roman buildings and a Benedictine monastery, which served as a point of defence along with its tower, were found on the islet of St. Mary in the Big Lake. The vivid vegetation secured Mljet the attribute of the green island that became famous all over the world.
