Croatia – the home of the tie and the destination of business people

Everybody already knows that Croatia is the homeland of the tie, the symbol of business people, but did you know that Croatia is also a symbol for business travel and a destination for major congresses?

The tie, today the indispensable fashion accessory and symbol of business people, was named after the necktie worn by Croatian soldiers around their neck in the period of the Thirty Years’ War.

The colourful necktie stuck in the memories of Parisians who quickly began to wear neck scarves “à la croate” from which came the word “cravat” - today’s fashion accessory.

Zagreb – city of museums!

The capital city of Croatia is famous for its large number of museums - there is no city in the world with such a high museum per capita. Here you will find many historical, artistic and other attractions, however one of the most popular is the Museum of Broken Relationships.

The city-state of Dubrovnik is already well-known due to King’s Landing from the mega-popular series Game of Thrones, whilst a visit Zadar is well worth it not only because it has been declared as the best European holiday destination for 2016.

Croatia will captivate you with its beautiful and varied landscapes of which one third are covered with forests, and there are also 11 nature parks, 8 national parks and 2 nature reserves, which makes it one of the countries with the greatest percentage of protected territories in the world and the hit destination for 2016.

During spring or autumn you can experience the true beauty of destinations in Croatia that offer varied cultural activities such as traditional events and festivals, and a tour of the cultural-historical sites and the great number of museums and art galleries which cover diverse themes will satisfy even the keenest of art lovers.

If you decide on a winter visit, you will also discover why Zagreb has been declared as the best Christmas destination in Europe. In any case, every visit to the Croatian metropolis will reveal something new and offer you an unforgettable holiday.

Even James Bond decided to spend his time in Croatia. It’s time you came too!
