Varazdin Croatia

There is a new project which the country of Varazdin has decided to undertake. This project is called “Traditional Food Path” where they will offer to the tourists the awesome culinary and heritage in a completely new way. This will enable the tourists to enjoy the traditional dishes of the country and to add to the pleasure they can also take part in the preparation of the dishes. The visitors can enjoy all this in 1 farms of the region. This project will provide a great platform for the visitors to interact with the producers of the native products of the region. Some of these traditional products that are produced here are protected. Things like honey and brandy made of honey, Varazdin cabbage, oil, pumpkin etc are the ones which are protected. It is planned that by the end of the year all the farms which will be a part of the project will receive an info table which will contain all the necessary information and interesting facts about their products. As a part of the preparations, tourist signs have been put in the area and a catalogue has been made in English and Croatian which will contain details of the products and their manufacturers. A website is also being made, www.put-tradicionalne-hrane.com and after this is a web shop is also being planned for the ease of the tourists. A main aim of this project is promotion of the agricultural farms who can promote certain selected products as they do not produce the protected products. As per the plan this project will eventually connect the wine roads of the country.

Varazdin Castle, Croatia

The Aquacity beach, enjoyed by the citizens of Varaždin and its visitors every summer, is even more beautiful and richer in facilities than before, and will be of interest to persons with special needs, featuring a multi-sensory park. The City of Varaždin, owner of Aquacity, has for the past couple of years been proclaimed the most developed continental beach in Croatia by the Croatian National Tourist Board. The centre’s development strategy takes into account the needs of everyone, including those with special needs.
Last year, the first phase of the reconstruction was completed, and included a foot path and wheelchair ramp to gain access to the water. Also, a new beach volleyball court has been built, which can easily be turned into a beach football pitch. New benches and swings for the disabled, two table tennis tables and bowling field were also part of the renovations. The footpath goes all the way to an island over a newly built wooden bridge. Along it, there are ten fishing spots, also adjusted for the disabled.
The beach now also features a ten-hole miniature golf court. However, the biggest novelty is the multi-sensory park, adjusted for the blind and persons with impaired sight. Through interaction with plants, visitors can attain more independence and a view of the world. The park is designed to stimulate their senses, touch, taste, smell and hearing, and the plants have been chosen for their characteristics so as to make their recognition easier.
