Đurđevac – Turistički vodič – Hrvatska

A small town of 8,000 in Podravina, Đurđevac is famous for two extraordinary things: the Đurđevački pijesci — a remarkable natural desert of active sandy dunes in the middle of a Central European forest landscape, unique in this part of Europe — and the medieval Old Town fortress (Stari Grad), beautifully preserved and connected to the legend of the Picoki, the brave townspeople who tricked Ottoman besiegers with their last rooster. The annual Picokijada festival celebrates this legend with great local colour and enthusiasm.
