Štrigova
Štrigova was already in Roman times a city called Stridon. It is a very special place in the north of Međimurje. Surrounded by hills and vineyards, it kept even thwo churches, one of which is gothic, but not whole. The old fortress Štrigovčak up on the hill was abandoned or destroyed in times of Zrinski counts, during Turk wars. It is a beautiful small city, starting with gothic architecture, over baroque until Art Nouveau. The magic ambience of Central Europe is created, besides the architectonic heritage, also by many vineyards surrounding the city. ...

Kotoriba
Art Nouveau or Jugendstil is typical for Kaikavian region since it is a part of Central Europe. ...

Gornji Koncovčak
Abandoned country house in Art Nouvceau style, a unique Kaikavian heritage, because nowhere will you find more such houses on the country side than in Kaikavian region! ...

Varaždin
What to say about Varaždin, a city that is sung about in Austro-Hungarian operetta (Komm mit nach Warazdin!), a city that was also the capital of Croatia, with beautiful Baroque and Art Nouveau centre? It is a city of Špancirfest, the biggest festival in Kaikavian region, and it is famous for it Baroque evenings. It has a definite spirit of Altösterreich - Old Austria- as some Austrians described it, a feeling you hardly can find in Austria which was despite many old architecture modernized and accelerated. Compared to that, Varaždin remaind slow, although developed. Varaždin is cultural centre of Kaikavian region, where you can watch theatre plays in Kaikavian and enjoy many cultural manifestions like the ones mentioned above. It lacks only in one point - gastronomic offer. Its restaurants are just too classic, too much of the "old school"´. Even if they try hard to present something new. That's why we invite for food to its twin city Čakovec and its higly developed gastronomic scene, the finest in Kaikavian region. Together, Varaždin & Čakovec make a perfect combination of cultural and gastronomic offer. ...
