Grad Zagreb

DOŽIVITE INSPIRACIJU U PARKOVIMA, MUZEJIMA I HOTELIMA GRADA ZAGREBA Zamislite kutiju iznenađenja, sa srcem umesto mašne na vrhu, koja kada se otvori nudi dragocenu inspiraciju šetnjom kroz prelepe parkove, savršeno povezane fontanama, gradskim trgovima i muzejima, sa kulama i dvorovima koji izviru u pozadini. To je grad Zagreb.

U putopisima gostiju koji su bar je­dnom posetili Zagreb piše: džepna me­tropola sa ogromnim srcem, grad fe­sti­vala i zabave, savremena i drevna umetnost u jednom... i još puno toga.

Kako bi najbolje upoznali Zagreb i sami stvorili svoju sliku, izdvojili smo nekoliko najinteresantnijih tačaka u gra­du. Krenite redom, čekirajte jed­no po jedno mesto i napišite svoj pu­topis.

6 tačaka u Zagrebu koje morate obići 1. Polazna tačka za obilazak Zagreba je zasigurno Trg Bana Josipa Jelači­ća.

S jedne strane, pogled zasenjuje do­ minantni kip bana Jelačića a sa dru­ge možete saznati kako je Zagreb do­bio ime, ni manje ni više nego po fonta­ni i legendi o devojci koja je tu zagrabila vodu. Malo dalje, na pijaci Dolac, mo­ žete od „kumica” kupiti ra­zne domaće proizvode.

2. Bilo da je vedar dan ili magla, iz­nad Zagreba se uvek može videti Ka­ted­ rala Uznesenja Blažene Device Ma­ rije, čije zdanje i trg Kaptol nije do­­z­ voljeno zaobići.

Kad je sagrađena, izme­đu IX i X ve­ka, bila je mala cr­k­va, a nakon više re­kon­

Kumice su žene iz okoline Zagreba koje uzgajaju domaće voće i povrće ili prave domaći sir i pavlaku koje prodaju na pijaci.

strukcija kroz ve­kove dobija vi­soke vi­ tke tornje­ve i im­pon­zantne sa­tove, od 8 tona bro­­n­ze i mesinga.

Odmah pored su i Banski dvorovi, da­ na­šnje sedište Vlade Republike Hrva­t­ ske.

3. Da bi obišli Gornji grad, morate se nekako i popeti, pa kako drugačije ne­­ go uspinjačom. Ovom prugom, na­j­k­ raćom žičanom železnicom na sve­­tu, du­gom 66 metara, dolazi se tačno is­­­ pod kule Lotrščak.

Zatim, u sre­di­štu Gor­njeg grada je trg i Crkva Sv. Marka čije orgulje morate čuti a sliku oboje­nih crepova i grbova na krovu će­­te sigurno upamtiti.

4. Za umetničke duše, Zagreb ima po­­ nu­du od pedesetak muzejsko-galeri­j­ skih prostora. Na pešačkoj udalje­no­sti su najveći mu­zeji grada Muzej Mi­­­mi­ ra, Etnografski muzej i Muzej za ume­­­­ t­­no­s­ti i obrt. Na ovoj lokaciji ćete, u sr­e­di­štu zele­nih parkova, naći i Hr­vat­ s­ko Narod­no pozorište i Akademi­ju dramskih umet­nosti, kao i Univerzi­ tet u Zag­rebu.

5. Za beg iz gradskih gužvi i buke na­ jbolji pravac je do Parka Maksimir.

Park čine dugačke staze za šetnju, li­ vade, šume i drvoredi, kao i vodene po­vršine. U centru parka je vidikovac vi­sine 17 m sa kog se pruža pogled na ceo park, a najveća atrakcija je sva­ka­ ko Zološki vrt.

City of Zagreb

BE INSPIRED BY PARKS, MUSEUMS AND HOTELS IN ZAGREB Imagine a surprise box, with a heart on top instead of a bow, which when opened provides precious inspiration by walking through the beauti­ ful parks, perfectly linked with fountains, public squares and museums and towers and castles arising in the background. It is a city of Zagreb.

In the travel diaries of visitors who have seen it at least once, Zagreb is described as a pocket metropolis with a gigantic heart, the city of festivals and entertainment, modern and ancient art... and so much more. In order to get to know Zagreb better and create your own image of it, we will present a few most interesting points in the city. Go by order, check one by one place and write your travel diary.

6 must visit points in Zagreb 1. The starting point of any sightse­ eing tour of Zagreb simply must be the square Ban Josip Jelacic.

On the one side it’s dominated by a statue of Ban Jelacic, while on the ot­ her you can find out how the city got its name, neither more nor less than af­ter the fo­untain and the legend ab­ out a girl who came to fetch (Croatian word “za­grabi”) water from it.

A little further off, at the Dolac mar­ ket, you can buy various homemade pro­duce from the “kumice”.

2. Whether it’s clear or overcast in Za­ greb, you can always see the Ca­t­h­e­ dral of the Assumption of the Bles­ sed Virgin Mary, which together with Kaptol Square you must not miss.

The cathedral was a small church at the time of its construction between

the roof you will certainly re­­m­e­m­ber.

Immediately next to it st­a­­nds Banski dvorovi (the court of the ban), the pr­e­sent-day seat of the Croati­an Go­ vernment.

3. To make a tour of the Upper City you have to climb up there first and wh­at better way to do that than by cable car. This track, the shortest cab­le railroad in the world, running only 66 meters in length, will bring you right to the foot of the Lotrscak Tower. In the heart of the Upper City there is a square and St. Mark’s Church wh­o­se organs you need to hear and pi­c­ture of colored tiles and coats of arms on

4. For art lovers, Zagreb has in its offer some fifty museums and galleries.

The cities’ main museums can all be reached on foot: the Mimira Museum, the Ethnographic Museum, and the Museum of Arts and Crafts. Here, in the midst of green parks, you will also find the Croatian National Museum, the Academy of Dramatic Arts, and Zagreb University.

5. The road away from the maddening city crowd leads to Maksimir Park.

The park consists of a long walking la­ ne, lush grassy areas, forests, avenues and ponds. A 17 meter high viewpo­ int is located in the center of the park, with a lovely view of the entire park and its biggest attraction, the Zoo. 6. Is there a capital where you will find islands – as many as six of them?

Yes, in Zagreb, on Lake Jarun.

This co­mplex of interconnected lakes and neat paths and promenades is a favo­rite spot not only for daytime recre­ation but also for night life.

Check this out...

The Westin Hotel Zagreb, among its 13 magnificent co­ ngress halls, has special one. The gala hall Opera, loca­ted on the 17th floor, and its elegance will take your breath away. Ideal for special events, gala dinners and formal re­ceptions of up to 150 delegates, this hall offers an am­ a­zing view to the entire Zagreb.

In the centre of to­ wn, on the la­st flo­ or of the Hotel Du­ b­rov­nik Zag­reb, the Preside­nt su­i­te found its place, ha­ v­ing a la­r­ge ter­race with a view to the Ban Je­l­a­cic square.

It is in the centre of the city bustle, and yet, iso­lated from the ci­ty noise.

Although planned as a part of the luxury apartme­nt, the terrace can be a perfect choice for organization of small gatherings, and it is especially known as the terrace with the best view to the city.

For classy pleasure and relaxation, on the 9th and 10th floor of the DoubleTree by Hilton Zagreb, you will find your oasis. The World Class Fitness & Spa, in addition to the mo­ st up-to-date fitness equipment, also has the swimming pool, whirlpool and saunas. Spice it up with a view to the panorama of Zagreb and the pleasure will be guaranteed.

Separate entrance, one special story and dedication, in or­der to make each event unique. The Congress Centre of the Aristos Hotel is allocated fr­om hotel, having its own lobby, reception desk and entrance.

Also, this congress centre, in its largest hall, can exhibit ca­rs and welcome more than 350 delegates.

Offer of the best cocktails, wines and cognacs, as well as ci­gars, can be found in the bar of Antunovic Hotel.

Vertigo Bar, with its rotating dome, is an ideal place to ta­ ke out your guests, to see the entire city of Zagreb from above and to turn a round of drinks.

For conferences and events attended by up to 300 partici­ pants, the Emerald Hall of the Hotel Esplanade Zagreb is a magnificent space of the elegant decoration and the supreme technical facilities and illumination. What outsta­ nds as a unique feature in this hall is its round shape which provides ideal acoustics and natural sound background.

Intervju - Zlatan Muftić, voditelj Kongresnog ureda Zagreba

ZAGREB NASTAVLJA SA RASTOM I RAZVOJEM U KONGRESNOJ INDUSTRIJI

Zlatan Muftić

1. Možete li nam predstaviti kongresnu ponudu Zagreba u tri tačke?

Prije svega zagrebačka ponuda vrlo je kvalitetna i raznovrsna.

Glavnina kongresnih kapaciteta je u ho­telima sa 5 i 4 zvjezdice, a dodatna je prednost prisutnost svjetski pozna­ tih brandova.

Zagreb nudi vrhunsku uslugu i opti­ malan odnos kvalitete i cijene.

Upravo smo u tom segmentu, kao de­ stinacija odlično ocijenjeni.

Međunarodna zračna luka Zagreb te njezina povezanost sa svim važnim eu­ropskim gradovima i hubovima či­ ni Zagreb dostupnim iz bilo kojeg di­ jela svijeta tokom cijele godine.

Zagreb je središte ekonomskog, aka­ demskog i znanstvenog života Hrva­ t­ske što predstavlja jedan od najzna­ čajnijih faktora u privlačenju kongresa i drugih poslovnih skupova.

Najvažnija komponenta su svakako lju­di. Kongresnu industriju grada Za­ greba čine vrhunski profesionalci ko­ji rade u specijaliziranim agencijama (PCO/DMC), hotelima i drugim veza­ nim djelatnostima. Brojni znanstveni­ ci i profesori s međunarodnim ugle­ dom i karijerom velika su vrijednost hr­vatskog glavnog grada.

ma našeg grada te spoj organizacij­ skih kapaciteta grada kao i ljepota i si­gurnost grada.

Goste oduševljava da u pauzama iz­ me­đu predavanja i poslovnih obave­za mo­gu u relativno kratkom vremenu posjetiti glavne gradske atrakcije.

Jednako tako važan je i osjećaj sigur­ nosti koji gosti imaju u našem gradu, što je posebno značajno u današnje vrijeme kada je pitanje sigurnosti do­ šlo u prvi plan.

2. Šta najviše ostavlja utisak na orga­ nizatore događaja u Zagrebu?

3. Zagreb nudi i posebne prostore za konferencije. Koliko ova ponuda pri­v­ lači organizatore događaja u Zagr­eb?

Otvorenost i gostoljubivost njihovih domaćina - od tehničkog osoblja, do građana Zagreba koji su uvijek spre­ mni sa zadovoljstvom pomoći gosti­

Posebni prostori poput muzeja, kaz­a­ lišta, arhiva ili povijesnih dvorana pre­ dstavljaju sve važniji dio kongres­ne po­nude. Naime, većina organizatora

kongresa želi barem jedno od svojih događanja, bilo da je riječ o ceremoni­ ji otvaranja, gala večeri ili oproštajnoj zabavi, organizirati izvan standardnih hotelskih prostora.

Velika je prednost Zagreba, što u stro­ gom centru grada, u pješačkom do­ metu od većine kongresnih hotela, ima izbor takvih posebnih dvorana što ih čini lako dostupnim i u velikom broju slučajeva ne zahtijeva korište­ nje prijevoza.

4. Prema ICCA statistici za 2013. god.

Zagreb se nalazi na 79. mestu u svetu, što je skok za 55 mesta za samo go­ dinu dana. Kako komentarišete ovaj rezultat?

Na brojnim kongresnim burzama i ra­di­onicama primjećujemo sve veći

Atrijum muzeja Mimara

in­te­res za Zagrebom i Hrvatskom, što po­tvr­đu­ju i ovi podaci.

ICCA statistika prati segment među­ narodnih asocijacija, i tu je Zagreb za­ bilježio navedeni pomak.

No, ono što je jednako tako važno, je­st to da smo i prema podacima Dr­ žavnog zavoda za statistiku u istoj go­ dini zabilježili ukupno 3.793 poslov­ nih skupova što je 420 skupova više nego u 2012. godini.

Pokazatelji su tog pozitivnog trenda za koji očekujemo da se nastavi, oso­ bito u svjetlu činjenice ulaska Hrvat­ ske u EU.

5. Za kraj, kako bi spojili reči sa slikama, možete li nam reći nešto više o projektu Zagreb-movies.com?

Tokom vremena, za potrebe promo­ cije isproducirali smo velik broj video materijala od kojih su mnogi dobili nagrade na međunarodnim festivali­ ma i turističkim burzama.

Ideja je bila da taj materijal objedini­ mo na jednom mjestu i učinimo do­ stupnim, kako široj publici, tako i or­ ganizatorima događanja i putovanja.

Interview - Zlatan Muftic, Head of Zagreb Convention Bureau

ZAGREB STEADILY GROWING IN MICE pean cities and hubs is what makes Zagreb accessible from any part of the world all year long.

Zagreb is the centre of the economic, academic and scientific life of Croatia, one of the major factors in attracting conventions and other types of me­ etings.

Zlatan Muftic

1. Could you present the Zagreb convention offer in three main points?

In the first place, Zagreb has a diversi­ fied high-quality offer. Most conven­ tion capacities are concentrated in 5and 4-star hotels, with global brands present as another asset.

Zagreb offers the top-quality servi­ ce and the best price/quality rela­ti­ onship. It is the very segment wh­ere we have a high ranking as a desti­na­ tion. The international airport Zagreb and its connection to all major Euro­

The most important component is no other than people.

MICE tourism in Zagreb gathers top professionals with specialised agen­ cies (PCO/DMC), hotels and other re­ lated activities.

Many scientists and professors of in­ ternational stature and careers are a major asset of Croatia’s capital.

2. What’s the biggest impression Zagreb made on the event organizers?

Openness and hospitability of their hosts – from technical staff to citizens of Zagreb who are always willing and glad to assist our city’s guests, as well as the combination of the city’s orga­ nizational capacities and its beauty and safety.

Guests are enthralled to be able to use breaks from lectures or busi­ness ar­rangements and visit the city’s ma­ in attractions in relatively short ti­me.

Equally important is the sense of sa­fe­ ty that guests feel in our city, which is quite relevant an issue now that sa­ fety is in focus.

3. Zagreb also offers special convention venues. How much has this offer added to attracting event organisers to Zagreb?

Special venues such as museums, th­ eatres, archives or historic halls are be­coming more important as part of our convention offer.

Namely, most convention organisers wish to organise at least one of their events, either an opening ceremony,

Funicular

gala dinner or a farewell party, out­ side traditional hotel venues.

Zagreb has this great advantage to feature in the very city centre – just a short stroll away from most con­ vention hotels – a wide choice of su­ch special halls being easily acce­ ssible and requiring virtually no tran­ sportation at all.

4. According to the 2013 ICCA statistics, Zagreb is ranked 79th in the world, that is a leap of 55 places in one year only. What’s your comment on this result?

At numerous MICE exchanges and workshops, we are witnessing a gro­ wing interest in Zagreb and Croatia, as confirmed by the above data.

ICCA statistics follow the segment of international associations, where Za­ greb recorded the mentioned impro­ vement.

King Tomislav Square

Equally important though, we recor­ ded a total of 3,793 business mee­ tings or 420 meetings more than in 2012 according to our National Stati­ stics Office.

Over time, for promotion purposes we produced a large number of vi­ deos, many of which were awarded at international festivals and tourist exchanges.

This is indicative of the positive trend we expect to continue, in particular in light of Croatia’s accession to the EU.

The idea was for the videos to be ga­ thered in one place and made availa­ ble both, to the general public and to event and travel organizers.

5. To end by putting together words and pictures, can you please tell us something more about Zagreb-mo­ vies.com project?

Susret tradicije i posvećenosti

ATLAS DMC – NIŠTA NIJE NEMOGUĆE Najveća kompanija za menadžment destinacije (DMC) u Hrvatskoj i regionu, Atlas DMC, sa tradicijom od davne 1923. godine, neprekidno radi na promociji Hrvatske i njene prestonice. Atlas DMC kreira široku paletu usluga, programa i proizvoda koji ispunjavaju zahteve pojedinačnih, grupnih i korporativnih klijenata. Poseban akcenat je stavljen na grad Zagreb.

Mirjana Šutić

O Zagrebu kao lokaciji za organizaci­ ju evenata, govori gđa Mirjana Šutić, voditeljica MICE odjela agencije Atlas DMC. 1. Šta posebno izdvaja Zagreb u od­ nosu na ostale lokacije?

Iako je Zagreb poslovni centar Hrvat­ ske, te samim time generira mnoga poslovna događanja, ono što Hrvat­ sku metropolu čini posebnom jesu

ne­brojene kulturno-povijesne lokaci­­ je za spektakularne evente, izvrsna ge­ografska pozicija i dobra prometna povezanost, zavidna si­gurnost živ­lje­ nja i boravka, relativno bogata lepe­ za događanja tijekom cijele godine i kvalitetna hotelsko-ugostiteljska po­ nuda.

U odnosu na druge svjetske metropo­ le, Zagreb zbog svoje veličine i tople atmosfere uživa ugled malog udob­ nog grada sa mnoštvom zbivanja i do­ brim domaćinima, u koji se naši strani klijenti osobito rado vraćaju.

2. Možete li nam izdvojiti ponudu Za­greba koju gosti ocenjuju kao naj­ bolju?

mvaja zakupljenog samo za njihovu gru­pu.

Svim gostima nastojimo pružiti što au­tentičnije iskustvo boravka u Hrva­ t­skoj, te nailazimo na iznimno poziti­ v­­ne reakcije kada program uključuje aktivno sudjelovanje posjetitelja u ku­­ hanju tradicionalne hrane, ili razgo­ vo­­ru sa poznatim Zagrepčanima koje an­ga­žiramo sukladno interesu grupe i te­mi skupa.

Kada se naši talentirani mladi glazbe­ nici, primjerice, angažiraju za nastup u prostoru muzeja ili atriju jednog od vrhunskih Zagrebačkih restorana, na­ šim klijentima prenosimo snažnu pa­ mtljivu emociju i slavimo snagu ma­le zemlje s nepokolebljivom energijom.

Ponosni smo što je ugledna farma­ ceutska tvrtka izabrala Zagreb i Atlas DMC za svog domaćina na ovom ko­n­ gresu koji će u potpunosti biti obojen hrvatskim bojama.

O tome da je Za­g­reb osvježenje na ma­pi kongresnih de­s­ti­nacija svjedo­či činjenica da je na­ve­deni klijent, ko­ji je dosad organi­zi­rao brojna do­ga­đa­nja u skoro svim eu­ro­pskim me­­t­ropo­la­ ma, poslije ins­pe­kcijskog pu­to­va­nja prihvatio sve na­še prijedlo­ge za doda­ tne aktivnosti, i bio izra­zi­to im­pre­­si­ oniran gostoprimstvom, sta­n­da­r­dom (osobito pri ispunjenju za­h­tje­va za Ha­ lal preh­ranom) i ponudom Zagreba i okolice.

Osim radnog dijela u jednom od Za­g­ rebačkih hotela s pet zvjezdica, su­­di­­o­ nike očekuje bogat program u sk­lo­pu kojega će posjetiti Va­raždin i Sa­mo­ bor, degustirati najbolje speci­ja­li­te­te ovoga kraja, te uži­vati u folk­lo­r­nom na­ s­tupu jednog od na­ših ku­l­tu­rno umje­ t­nič­kih dru­štava, tambu­raša i vr­hu­n­­s­ kih hr­vatskih violoni­sta i pi­ja­ni­­sta.

Although Zagreb is the business ce­ n­tre of Croatia, and therefore gene­ ra­tes many business events, what

In comparison with other world capi­ tals, owing to its size and warm at­mo­ sphere, Zagreb enjoys the reputation of a small cosy city with a lot going on and good hosts, where our internati­ onal clients keep coming back.

2. Can you single out some Zagreb offers, favorited by your clients?

We try to offer all guests as authentic experience as possible when it comes to visiting Croatia, and we come ac­ ross an exceptionally positive respon­ se to a programme including active participation of visitors in cooking tra­ di­tional meals, or talking to fa­mous Zagreb citizens we hire based on the interest of the group or the topic of the event.

For instance, when our talented yo­ ung musicians are hired to perform in a museum or at an atrium of a top restaurant in Zagreb, we convey a st­ rong and memorable emotion to our clients and celebrate the strength of the small country with an unfaltering energy.

Apart from business as the major re­a­ son to stay in Zagreb, our guests mo­st enjoy theme sightseeing, either pa­no­ ramic tour by night, somewhat more active learning about Zagreb’s special sights by segway, or guided to­urs on a special blue tram rented for their group only.

d e s t i n a t i o n 3. In September Atlas DMC is organi­ zing a Congress for the biggest pharmaceutical company from Tunisia.

Could you, please, tell us more about the upcoming event?

We are proud to say that a respectable pharmaceutical company has chosen Zagreb and Atlas DMC as their host at this congress that will be fully decora­ ted with Croatian colours.

Zagreb be­ing a real refreshment on the map of co­ngress destinations is witnessed by the fact that the client, who has so far organized numerous events in almo­st all European capitals, following an site inspection, accep­ ted all our pro­posals for extra acti­ vities, and was qu­i­te impressed with the hospitality, sta­ndard (in particular Halal standard de­mands) and the of­ fer of Zagreb and its surroundings.

Apart from the business part at one of the Zagreb 5-star hotels, participants will have a rich programme in­cluding visits to Varazdin and Samobor, tas­ ting of the best specialties of the area, and enjoying a folklore performance of a local cultural ensemble, tambu­ ritza players and Croatia’s top-class fiddlers and pianists.

A special focus is on presenting the original Croatian heritage and cultu­ re, on a high level as appropriate for a group of doctors with a renowned pharmaceutical company.

Conference, official opening, Congress Center Antunovic

4. Could you tell us about the plans or perhaps new offers you are preparing for the autumn congress season in Za­­greb?

In collaboration with our strategic pa­ rtners, a wide network of our present and potential clients, we always have spe­cial offers in Zagreb and entire Cro­­ atia.

These are mostly meeting pa­c­kages targeted at client groups relative to their interest and past activities.

We are preparing a wide range of te­ am building activities based on chari­ ty work by company employees.

Instead of pure fun, these program­ mes, in cooperation with local institu­ tions, allow company employees to

do a good deed and leave their mark in the lives of the most needy. We ho­ pe this trend will continue on all other destinations throughout Croatia.

Vrhunske lokacije u Zagrebu za besprijekorne konferencije i događanja

BOGATSTVO MICE PONUDE NA KLJUČNIM LOKACIJAMA U GLAVNOM GRADU HRVATSKE Hoteli najveće i najstarije zagrebačke hotelijerske grupacije, HUP-ZAGREB, smješteni su u središtu glavnog grada države koja je od 2013. godine po­ nosna članica Europske Unije. Hoteli grupacije nalaze se na najatraktivnijim lokacijama te svojom opremljenošću, kvalitetom usluge, kongresnim prostorima, kao i dugom tradicijom, omogućuju poslovne skupove svih veličina - kao da je centar grada jedan veliki kongresni prostor.

Osnova poslovanja tvrtke je u dva hrvatska grada: Zagrebu i Dubrovniku.

Unatoč velikom porastu broja odmo­ rišnih i tzv. city break turista, Zagreb je i dalje poslovno središte regije te naj­ veći udio gostiju hotela čine poslovni ljudi. Upravo je zbog toga kongresna ponuda HUP-a Zagreb dominantna i
