er the ceremony is cancelled. The Grand Changing of the Guard in St. Mark’s Square begins at noon sharp, with the firing of the Grič cannon from the Lotršćak Tower. At that very moment, musi-cal accompaniment starts as well. The total duration of the ceremony is 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the musical accompaniment’s performing tempo.

Members of the Honorary Protective Combat Unit of the Croatian Armed Forces take part in the ceremony of the Grand Changing of the Guard. The Honorary Protective Combat Unit is an auxiliary unit of the General Staff of the Croatian Armed Forces which is in charge of performing protocol and ceremonial duties for the national and military leadership - the Croatian President, the Croatian Government and the Croatian Ministry of Defense as well as of performing tasks of protecting and securing the commander-in-chief of the Croatian Armed Forces. The Honorary Protective Combat Unit originates from the 1st part of the Croatian Guard Corps and is located in the Tuškanac barracks in Zagreb.

Participants of the Grand Changing of the Guard

The ceremony of the Grand Changing of the Guard shows the daily changing of the sentries which also took place in the period just before World War II, at the time of the Banate of Croatia. The idea of the ceremony dates back to the end of 1990 and the ceremony was performed until 2000. The decision on the formation of the Honorary Guard, as it was called at the time of its establishment, as an honorary unit which would carry out protocol activities for the purposes of the national leadership of the newly established Croatian state, was made by the first Croatian President, Franjo Tuđman. The first appearance of the honorary unit that was given the title of the Honorary Presidential Guard was on 28 May, 1991, within the framework of forming the Assembly of the National Guard at the Zagreb Football Club Stadium in Kranjčevićeva Street. The first ceremony of the Grand Changing of the Guard took place in Mark’s Square in Zagreb's Upper Town on May 30, 1991.

HISTORY OF THE CEREMONY

take part in the ceremony. The Honorary Unit is dressed in formal historical uniforms created on the basis of the

original design inspired by the ceremonial magnate

dress of the Croatian noblemen and

of the Croatian Parliament

members called ‘virilists’ (who were given individual right to vote based on their origin or position) from the time of the Banate

of Croatia. The Honorary Unit

is also dressed in uniforms of the

Croatian national and cultural 19th

century movement. The red colour of uniforms for

soldiers and non-commissioned officers represents the traditional Croatian colour worn by the Croatian troops in the time of resistance to Turkish invaders.

Three officers in black and white historical uniforms and 26 soldiers and non-commissioned officers in red and black historical uniforms

EVENT OF THE WEEK

Zagreb has always celebrated the day of its patron saint on different locations around the city. In the evening citizens and their guests can take part in the proccession and enjoy concerts

8On 31 May Zagreb is cele-brating the day of its patron

saint, Our Lady of the Stone Gate. Although there had been settle-ments in this area, written evi-dence on the existence of Zagreb is historically connected to the foundation of the Kaptol Diocese in 1094. The second important event in city history took place in 1242, when King Bela IV issued his Golden Bull acknowledging certain benefits to Gradec, and the entire settlement became a free royal town.In 1850 Gradec and Kaptol united with neighbouring settlements, setting the foundations for the development of a modern, central European city. The city started expanding toward the left bank of the River Sava first, and later, in the 1960s, along the right banks as well.Zagreb has always celebrated the day of its patron saint on different locations around the city. In the evening citizens can enjoy free concerts or go sightseeing. The procession of Our Lady starts in the evening at the Cathedral, and moves towards the Stone Gate.

Mirogoj, the central cemetery in Zagreb, is located on the slopes

of Medvednica and is considered to be one of the most beautiful cemeteries in Europe. Howev-

er, Mirogoj is also a beautiful park and an outdoor art gallery. The arcades are the most beau-tiful part of the cemetery – the construction bega in 1879, only

three years after Mirogoj was opened, and they were complet-ed thirty eight years later. Miro-

goj is the resting place of many famous Croats and the complex also contains a number of valu-

able monuments made by promi-nent Croatian artists.

8The picturesque St. Mark's Church is

one of the oldest build-ings in Zagreb and one of its symbols, distinctive for its roof made of multicolor roof tiles. The church has existed since the 13th cen-tury, but it famous roof is much younger – it was in-stalled during its most re-cent reconstruction in the second half of the 19th

century. The roof features emblems of the Croatian regions of Dalmatia and Slavonia on the left side, and the Zagreb City em-blem on the right side. There are three altars in the interior, sculpted by Ivan Meštrovićm, and Kljaković's sacristy paint-ed from the floor to the ceiling. Organ concerts of-ten take place here.

As one of the best preserved mon-uments of old Zagreb, this is the only remaining gate of the former city defense system. It was built in the 13th century and given its present design in 1760. The pas-

sageway within the gate contains a chapel with a picture of St. Mary of the Stone Gate, the city guardian, which according to a legend sur-vived a major fire in 1731 without any damage.STONE GATE

8The history of the Art Pavilion is in a way the

cifically designed for major exhibitions. It is situated be-tween the Central Railway Station and Zrinjevac, in the very heart of Lenuci’s Green Horseshoe.

8The funicular pro-vides organized pub-

lic transport of passen-gers to the upper part of Zagreb. It connects the Downtown and the Old Town every working day and on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays from 6.30am to 10pm and has to this day retained its original exterior design and struc-ture, as well as most of the technical characteris-tics given to it by its build-ers in 1890 when it was opened. It leaves every ten minutes and the price of one ride is HRK 4. Com-pared to other cable cars intended for public trans-port, its track of only 66 meters makes it the short-est one in the world.

Zagreb CathedralThe Cathedral of the As-sumption of Blessed Vir-gin May, Saint Stephen and Saint Ladislaus, or the Zagreb Cathedral is the largest Croatian sa-cral building and one of the most valuable monu-ments of the Croatian cultural heritage. The church has stood in the same location since 1093 and the construction of the present building be-gan in the 13th century. The last major recon-struction was made at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, while the tow-ers are still being recon-structed in stages. The church is open for tour-ists, may be entered at any time of the day, and a mass in Croatian is held several times a day.

Croatian National Theater8The neo-baroque

Croatian National Theater building, a mas-terpiece of late historicism designed by the Austrian architect Ferdinand Fell-

ner and German architect Hermann Helmer, is cer-tainly one of the most im-pressive buildings in Za-greb. Opened in 1895 and seating 750 people, it has

one iron curtain and seven painted curtains displayed on different formal occa-sions. Theatre goers can enjoy drama, opera or bal-let there.

Church

The tower was built in mid-13th century to protect the south city gate and has been used throughout history as living quarters, a ware-house, a coffee shop… Tourists can enjoy a spectacular view of the city from the top of the tower, visit an exhibi-tion or buy some local products in the souve-nir shop. The Grič Can-on is on the fourth floor, and it greets the resi-dents of Zagreb every day precisely at noon.

St. Catherine’s Church is the most famous Croa-tian baroque church. It is located on Katarina

Zrinska Square, erected as part of a former Jesuit

complex in Zagreb Old Town. It was built from 1620 to 1632 and its six

side chapels contain five baroque altars dating

back to the 17th century, and a marble altar from

Museum of Broken Relationships

Lauba cooperates, exhibits and shares knowledge with peer institutions to keep up to date with and encourage modern art production in Croatia. In addition to unusual exhibits and features, Lauba is designed as a House for People and Art, available to all audiences.

The Museum is a result of a traveling exhibition

of items deriving from broken relationships. An

emotional separation may be overcome by

donating memories to the museum collection

and thus recognizing the end of the relationship.

The Kulmer Palace is full of different objects, from matchboxes to wedding

gowns.

A fearless fighter for human rights and the first female journalist in Croatia has always been one step ahead of her time. She became famous for her romantic novels with elements of national history. The statue is the work of Stjepan Gračan.

VIVID MARKET

Dolac is Zagreb's central market, located between the church of St. Mary and Kaptol. If you want to get to know Zagreb and its inhabitants you must visit this tradicional market know for best homade productsAUTHOR VIKTORIJA MACUKIĆ, IVA TADIĆPHOTO BRUNO KONJEVIĆ/HANZA MEDIA

the lifeline of Zagreb

DOLAC

8To visit Zagreb and not go to Dolac, Zagreb's

central market, would be a real pity. Visiting the Dolac Market early in the morning is the best way for you to get to know Zagreb and its in-habitants.A symbol of Dolac, the old-est market in Zagreb, are the cheerful red umbrellas. Be-low the umbrellas, you will find plenty of fruits, vegeta-bles, and homemade prod-ucts such as cottage cheese and cream, which are a popular local dish. Cot-tage cheese and cream are used to prepare homemade štrukli, a traditional Croa-tian dish which you have to try when you are in Zagreb.

Interestingly enough, the umbrellas themselves have a story to tell. The Šestine umbrella which has become a recognizable souvenir of Zagreb over the years has always complemented the traditional costume of Za-greb, the folk costume from Šestine. The picture of these umbrellas in Dolac is one of the most popular images of the city of Zagreb.At Dolac, you will come across a large number of saleswomen whom the in-habitants of Zagreb still call kumice (farm women). It was a title given to women from Prigorje who used to carry baskets filled with domestic fruits and vegetables on their

heads from the farms every day. In their honour, a stat-ue of kumica was placed in 2006 right at the entrance to the market, when you climb up the stairs from Ban Josip Jelačić Square. The statue is very popular among the visi-tors of Dolac, many of whom have taken a ‘selfie’ with ku-mica Barica.Today's saleswomen are also in the mood for tak-ing photos. Kumica Matica Štef has been selling pro-duce for 50 years, and has had her own stand in Dol-ac for 20 years. Her regular customers, as well as any-one new who comes there, can always find kale, car-rots, lettuce, potatoes, and

other domestic and fresh vegetables.The Dolac Market is not only a plateau between the church of St. Mary and Kap-tol. Below the plateau there is the best fish market in the city, and in the lower part there is a rich offer of other domestic products.To visit Dolac you need to give yourself time, get to know it thoroughly, and find and get acquainted with the best groceries and sales-women. Dolac and its sur-rounding cafes, delicatessen shops, wine bars and bis-tros are the best places for morning coffee, mingling and breakfast in the city. Do not miss it.

The Dolac Market extends all the way to Opatovina, a city street where you can buy clothes and shoes. Opatovina and Dolac are separated by the statue of Petrica Kerempuh, a character from a novel by Croatian journalist and writer Marija Jurić Zagorka, whose apartment was located in Dolac. Today, the Memorial Centre of Marija Jurić Zagorka in situated there. The statue of the journalist is located a few meters away, in Tkalčićeva street. If you go to Dolac from Ban Jelačić Square, you will be enchanted by the smells and colours of Splavnica, the place where the nicest bouquets and flowers in the city are sold. Splavnica is located below the stairs leading to Dolac and is an indispensable stop for all market visitors.

ON THE STAND OF THE RADOŠEVIĆ FAMILY, THE BEEKEEPERS, THERE IS A ABUNDANCE OF VARIOUS TYPES OF HONEY, AS WELL AS THE POPULAR FLO-RAL POWDER.

HISTORYAlthough the inhabitants of Zagreb mostly remember the recent history of the Dolac Market dating back to 1930 when it was opened at today's location, before it was established it used to be called the Harmica Market and it was located in Ban Josip Jelačić Square. The market has always been the belly of Zagreb and an indispensable place where citizens get together while buying groceries for lunch. Dolac is located above the former city walls, where the poor part of the city used to be. The location was proposed by Viktor Kovačić, the famous architect from Zagreb. The market has been operating there since 1930. Last year, it was only moved to a different location because of the restoration of the plateau.

The restaurant open in Lauba House of Art boasts soups and stews, proper lunches and tasty home-made bread. Fresh ingredients bought at the market are used in their meals, the menu is changed every three months, and the selection of food depends on the season. Bistro Lauba is the place you must see.

Look for traditional continental and Mediterranean specialties on Vinodol’s menu, including daily menus, and make sure you ask for their wine list. The restaurant is in the heart of the city, and it is one of favourite places of both tourists and locals.

Zlatni medo Pub is famous for grilled meat and daily offer of lunches. The menu also contains special meals such as the beer menu which will satisfy both beer and food lovers. From the centre of the city you can reach the pub easily by tram, and you will most likely find a place as there are more than 450 seats.

if you are looking for Mediterranean cuisine Boban is the place for you. The menu includes specialties with home-made pasta and bread, and the wine menu contains as many as 140 labels.

A great selection of excellent burgers was enough to immedi-ately make Submarine BBQ an ab-solute hit. Everyone recommends their smokehouse burger, but that is not all that the menu offers. If you don't know which one to pick, try three mini-burgers.

The restaurant located in the very heart of the city offers an exquisite selection of both local and international cuisine, in addition to a weekly offer of lunches. Fish, pasta, soups are a part of the menu in this restaurant which has a long tradition, and has over the years become one of the best restaurants in Zagreb.

MUST TRY

In local restaurans ask for specialties from this region and shop for products that reflect the unique identity of Zagreb surroundingsAUTHOR RENE BAKALOVIĆ

8Zagreb’s gastronomy is a perfect combination of culinary traditions – of the clergy, the nobility

and then the bourgeois, the so-called purgeraj (from the German word Burger meaning citizen), and the rustic tradition of the picturesque ring encircling the city: Zagorje and Prigorje, which developed for nine long centuries. In the urban life of Zagreb, the resi-dents always wanted to show they were able to keep up with the global culinary trends present in major metropolitan centers in neighboring countries – Vien-na and Budapest. Women from the villages of Zagorje and Prigorje brought first-class fresh ingredients to marketplaces in Zagreb on a daily basis. This top se-lection available in Zagreb’s marketplaces has spread to all Croatian regions, as it becomes evident in the restaurants all over the city: Dalmatian, Istrian and Slavonian cuisine. They are now an exhibition of Cro-atian gastro icons.

This two-piece dairy package has developed into a symbol of authentic culinary heritage. Extremely simple, yet very delicate. This cult-status duo is only produced from the milk of cows grazing unpolluted pastures, unquestionably fresh full-fat sour cream and carefully drained cheese. Beside fresh bread, you only need a little salt and perhaps some hot paprika.

Cottage cheese and cream

ŠTRUKLIŠtrukli is a favorite coocked or gratinated pastry, a result of

the transformation of the German strudel on its way east. Štrukli are commonly mentioned in the context

of presenting Croatia to the world. It makes sense: the stuffing consists of cheese

and cream. In Esplanade, the most prestigious hotel both in former

Yugoslavia and now in Croatia, štrukli has been enjoyed by kings and queens, the most prominent statesmen, and the greatest stars of the film

and music industries.

KRAM POGAČEPork scratches are not exclusive to Croatia, but nobody is as mad about them as Croats are. The best ones are sold at very high prices. We love pork scratches so much we put them in the basic food product - pogača, the predecessor of bread. Kram pogača is a small pogača seasoned with ground pork scratches and pepper. These small bites are perfectly combined with a glass of wine or beer.

ZAGORJE SOUPCroats love soups and make them from all kinds of ingredients. Broths like this Zagorje soup can replace an entire meal. This is no wonder - a real Zagorje soup inevitably contains enough good cured meat, dry and fresh mushrooms, root vegetables, onions, garlic and potatoes, hot paprika, pepper, laurel leaf, wine vinegar and, finally, a spoon of sour cream.

TURKEY WITH MLINCIIn its native country of America, turkeys are now huge domesticated

birds. The Zagorje turkey is the smallest protected species, semi-wild

and requiring plenty of outdoor space to survive. This is why its meat it fabulously

succulent. It does not require lots of spices, only mlinci, a traditional kind of pasta gratinated on a wood oven and then doused in gravy, as a side dish.

Good news, beer lovers: Croatia's craft-beer scene is stronger then ever with new breweries and beer bars spanning round. Raise a pint to the best new beers in Zagreb bars

Nova runda Craft Brewery was established by two friends, Marko Filip and Miroslav Šuvak. Their first and so far only beer C4 contains four varieties of hop (Chinook, Cascade, Centennial and Citra), guaranteeing an explosion of taste.

Bujska pivovara is the only brewery of this kind in Istria. Product range includes red, pale and dark San Servolo beers, all unfiltered and unpasteurized.

Bošnjak Beer is made by the Bošnjak family from Sičica near Nova Gradiška. In addition to pale ale, they also make dark beer and pale lager.

The Fifth Element is a special brewery within Pivovara Daruvar. Their products include: American Blonde Ale (ABA), Baltic Porter (BART), and LELA.

The first mini-brewery and pub in Zagreb. They started by making their pale beer Zlatni medvjed, dark beer Crna kraljica, and mixed Mrki medvjed. Their Agram Stout is a dark beer made from roasted barley and malt.

Dino Konta and Sanja Cvetanović started brewing their own beer after experimenting in their kitchen. They started their Pivionica brewery and proceeded to make Fulir, a pale lager, made from natural ingredients.

For as long as these parts have been inhabited, wine has been an inseparable component of both the daily routine and festivitiesAUTHOR SAŠA ŠPIRANEC

The great local wine varieties

8Wine is one of the most valuable elements of

the Croatian tradition and gastronomic heritage. For as long as these parts have been inhabited, wine has been an inseparable compo-nent of both the daily routine and festivities. Over centu-ries, each Croatian wine re-gion developed its own dis-tinctive wine varieties that fully adapted to the climate, soil and expectations of their residents. When you find yourself in one of the wine regions of Croatia such as Dalmatia,

Istria, Hilly Croatia or Sla-vonia, don’t forget to taste some of the wines favorite among the local population.In Dalmatia, it is plavac mali. This is the most important and the most represented red variety in Croatia. It yields soft, ripe and succu-lent wines when offered in a lower price range and origi-nates from Dalmatian fields situated in ravines hidden in endless karst. On the other hand, when it comes from steep slopes facing the sun and the sea, usually from islands or peninsulas such

as Hvar, Brač and Pelješac, it gives powerful, warm, strong and ripe wines, per-fectly reflecting the harsh conditions that created them with their richness and con-centration.When in Istria, malvazija is the most important variety to try. A white wine full of freshness and pleasant aro-mas of ripe fruits, such as peaches and hints of blos-soming acacias. In addition to this basic edition, malva-sia can also be found in more ambitious forms after ageing for a long time and develop-

In Dalmatia you

tip!

ing a more complex aromat-ic set.When in hilly Croatia, look for aromatic white varieties such as sauvignon blanc or Riesling (locally referred to as rajnski rizling). They also use many other varieties to make wine in the region, but what they all have in com-mon are lively acids and a highly refreshing character. The wines of hilly Croatia work ideally as an aperitif, refreshment in summertime, or to go with a light meal.Slavonia and the Danube Region are an empire of graševina, the most impor-tant and represented white variety, but also a general type. Graševina is a good-times wine, and is ideal to go with your lunch. It is normal-ly bold and refreshing with attractive aromas of apple, pineapple or citrus, and is offered at very affordable prices. Sometimes, when it comes from later harvests, it shows quite a different face and its aromas.

Zagreb offers great variety of places that children will enjoy. Take them to Maksimir, ride around the town in the tourist train, visit the biggest little railway model in this part of the Europe... And be sure - it's not only the kids who will love those activities, so will you!

8Zagreb ZOO stretches on 7 hectares of the south-

ern part of Maksimir Park, and boasts nearly 300 animal spe-cies. The ZOO has numerous external dwellings and sever-al theme pavilions. The oldest inhabitant is a crocodile from Nile, who came to live here in 1972. The ZOO organizes events, workshops and presentations.The ZOO was under construction for two years, and follow-ing the completions of works last year it was opened for visi-tors. One of the nov-elties is a large avi-ary for hundreds of African birds. There is also the new entrance with video surveillance and a visi-tor counter, an additional east entrance, a souvenir shop with around 300 authentic souvenirs that is thre times larger than the previous one, and an addition-

al educational centre. The boil-er room that used to run on fuel oil has been turned into an en-vironment-friendly one, running on pellets. Two bridges have been built and cultural monuments have been restored – the Napoli Fisher-

man (Napuljski rib-ar), and the Lion’s Bridge (Lavlji most), adorned with four new stone lion stat-ues onto which eve-ry child wants to climb to have their picture taken.The spacious Kide-po Lion’s Rock was also erected, as well as a new enclosure for the globally en-dangered red pan-da, and a Madagas-car area. A so-called

“spider’s web” made out of rope, trampolines, benches and deck chairs has been fitted on Swan Island (Labuđi otok) which has recently been connected via Darwin’s Bridge.

8A few years ago Zagreb Electric Tram company (ZET) introduced

free train rides for tourists, and kids are crazy about them. The train rides every weekend between 10am and 7.20pm, eve-ry 40 minutes, along the following route: Ban Jelačić Square, Ilica, Frankopanska, Masarykova, Teslina, Praška, Jurišićeva to Trg žrtava fašizma, and then back to the central square.

BACKO MINI EXPRESSThe biggest model train in Southeast Europe can be found in Gundulićeva street 4. The man behind the idea is Antun Urbić, who got his first model train from Switzerland when he was five. He was fascinat-ed by mini trains which looked exactly like the real thing, so he decided to make his first model in the attic of his house. He soon developed the idea of opening it for visitors. Today he has over 1000 meters of rails and nearly 100 trains, railways sta-tions, and shops. During winter days and the very famous Advent in Zagreb event a model of the Snow Queen ski race was added, and it was a huge success. Backo Mini Express broke all records when it introduced an Advent Fairytale, hosting more than 2700 foreign visitors, which is a 50% increase compared to last year.

8Children who are 14 and older can play a

popular game room es-cape – they are locked in a room, and have 60 min-utes to find a way out by solving different puzzles. Considering the size of the city, Zagreb’s offer of room escape venues plac-es it in the very top – the total of 10 rooms are on of-fer in four locations. Es-cape room is a game for two to six players (some-times a maximum of five), who have an hour to dis-cover all hidden objects and keys, decipher codes, solve puzzles and riddles, think logically, and work together on solving the problem and finally break-ing out. Children and par-ents can choose from four different room escapes in Zagreb and play the one they like the most.

OTHER STREETS AND ALLEYS IN THE OLD QUARTER ARE RE-ALLY SPECIAL, THE MOST PIC-

TURESQUE PART OF THE CITY IS ZRINJEVAC PARK.

GORAN FERIĆ (50), bar owner

APART FROM THE OLD TOWN, WHICH IS REALLY A SPECIAL

PART OF ZAGREB, I BELIEVE BO-TANICAL GARDEN ARE ALSO WORTH SEEING, AS WELL AS MAKSIMIR. SLJEME IS ALSO

VERY INTERESTING.

OpatijaThe pearl of Kvarner bay is a popular winter and summer destination, with average temperature of 10°C in winter, and 25°C in summer. Numerous resorts and villas stretch along the coast, and the view is absolutely amazing. The first hotel in the Adriatic, the Kvarner Hotel, was built in Opatija, and today it is the most recognisable tourist destination. For visitors who prefer active holiday, Učka Mountain is the place for rock-climbing and cycling.

TrakošcanThe Trakošćan Castle is a protected cultural and historical heritage. A park and the woods with a lake surround the caste. It was built in late 13th century, and reconstructed in mid-19th century, when the return to nature and family tradition became popular. The museum has a valuable collection of works ranging from the renaissance to historicism.

The Island of HvarAccording to some portals, the Island of Hvar is one of the most beautiful islands in the world, with mild climate, numerous tourist attractions, cultural monuments, and plenty of wine and olives. Although it is detached from the mainland, everything is available on the island, and there is a feeling of mild isolation, which is exactly what some tourists want on holidays.

HOW TO GET THERE Ferry boat from Split, HRK 40 per person, ferry boat from Drvenik HRK 18 per person

The entire historical heart of Split, including the Diocletian’s Palace, is on UNESCO world heritage list. The palace was built by Diocletian, a Roman emperor, who wanted to spend the last years of his life in this very special place with wonderful Mediterranean climate,

overlooking the sea. Apart from historical heritage, Split boasts a rich gastronomic offer, countless cultural events, as well as clubs where the best parties are organized. After touring the city, Marjan hill is a great place for the active part of your holiday - cycling, hiking or simply going for a walk.
