I take this opportunity to wish you and your loved ones a happy 2016, lots of good health and joy, laughter and love throughout the year. I am happy and proud that our city, the European capital chosen as the best Advent destination in Europe, continues to feature a diverse offer throughout January and that its streets and squares are still full of visitors and tourists from all over the world. Take the opportunity to ice skate at one of the most beautiful ice skating rinks in Europe, and become part of the unforgettable atmosphere at the magical Zrinjevac Park; dance at the cheerful European Square, or travel the world in charming Kurelčeva Street.

The year behind us was marked by excellent results for Zagreb’s tourism; it will go down in history as the year Zagreb was voted the best Christmas destination in Europe. All of this makes us very happy, especially as it proves that our guests think very favourably of us, and their votes confirm Zagreb’s reputation as an attractive city break destination.
