Croatia's capital has everything a city destination can offer, from interesting museums and outstanding architecture to rich culture and amazing gastronomy. It's no wonder that visitor arrivals to the city have been rising steadily. Its history began in the 14th and 15th centuries when the hill towns of Gradec and Kaptol fought each other to protect their interests. It suffered from the Turkish invasion, went through two World Wars and the breakup of the former Yugoslavia. Today, Zagreb is a delightful yet unassuming urban centre that boasts beautiful parks, squares and art galleries. It is also an economic powerhouse and a main transportation hub linking the country and the rest of Europe.
