Croatia
The Republic of Croatia is a European country situated along the
Adriatic Sea and its hinterland. It stretches from the slopes of
the Alps and deep into the Pannonian Valley to the banks of the
Danube and Drava rivers.
Thus according to its natural characteristics, as well as its
cultural and historical development, Croatia can be divided into
three geographically distinct zones:
- the Coastal region
- the Mountain region
- the Pannonian region
We invite you to discover and enjoy the beauties of Croatia, its
mild climate, the crystal clean, warm sea water, beautiful beaches,
virgin natural landscapes, combined with rich history and cultural
heritage, delicious cuisine and good wines, and above all, warm and
friendly people.
ZAGREB
Zagreb is an old Central European city. For centuries it was a
focal point of culture and science, and now of commerce and
industry as well. It lies on the intersection of important routes
between the Adriatic coast and Central Europe.
In the year 1991, Zagreb became a capital - a political and
administrative centre for the Republic of Croatia. Zagreb is also
the hub of the business, academic, cultural, artistic and sporting
worlds in Croatia. Many famed scientists, artists and athletes come
from the city, or work in it. Zagreb can offer its visitors the
Baroque atmosphere of the Upper Town, picturesque open-air markets,
diverse shopping facilities, an abundant selection of crafts and a

transportation, it has retained its charm, and a relaxed feeling
that makes it a genuinely human city.
