Sažetak
This paper seeks to show how area of the Nature Park Medvednica has immense potential for tourism development in the metropolitan region of the City of Zagreb and, on the other side, to warn that unplanned tourism can lead to devastation of space and reducing the value of landscape in every sense. Tourism in the cultural landscape has the increasing development opportunities, on the global and local level. For the last few years on the global tourist market, the cultural landscape, as a tourist resource base, are getting even more significance. Social processes of modernization are doing pressure on the landscape and we must looking for new forms in approaching to solve these problems. As a tourist resource base, cultural landscape becomes an element for the development of different forms of tourism (urban tourism, rural tourism etc.). In order to include the Nature Park Medvednica in the quality of tourist offer of Zagreb and its surroundings, it is necessary to update the spatial plan for the whole area and also to create programs with content and border facilities on the basis of which will create projects for each location. These plans and programs should be designed in a way so as to achieve symbiosis of modern lifestyles and traditional cultural landscapes and all those who are interested in order to create new space values (economic, social, cultural, landscape, ecological etc.). Based on the analysis and tourist evaluation of Nature Park Medvednica allocates eight key attraction, which also represent the eight separate large-scale projects for the future development of the Nature Park and the City of Zagreb. For the key attractions, we can be able to anticipate the various forms of tourism (urban tourism, rural tourism, wine tourism, religious tourism etc.) that would enable the development of the city and also villages on the outskirts of the Nature Park. Planned programs (or projects) should be selected according to the criterion of adaptability to existing conditions and with minimum impact on the changing physical environment to preserve the natural state and at the same time enable the socio-economic development of the local community.
