Finally Zagreb is getting the respect it deserves. Travel writer Robert Cross visited recently and was utterly charmed by the city–as I always am! It was great to read that he was as impressed by the pizza as me and ate at my favorite restaurants–Boban, Kaptolski Klet and Zinfandels (see more on Zagreb restaurants). His Zagreb sightseeing seemed to have left him with a strong appreciation of the city’s artistic and architectural heritage and staying at the Hotel Palace and Zagreb Sheraton wasn’t too shabby either (see more on Zagreb accommodation).

Another article  traces the history of Zagreb’s Gay Pride parade and announces the date of this year’s Pride parade–from June 27 to June 30.  This year, organizers are seeking to increase its visibility as part of their goal to increase the visibility of the LGBTIQ population in Croatia who suffer from discrimination and lack of acceptance.
