Zagreb - moves with the times

Zagreb is a city which has had to adapt to many changes, from the old fortified city on its hilltop location to a provincial capital in the Austrian empire to the communist newtown down in the valley and eventually a modern capital city and economic hub. This is the view down Pavla Radica, one of the main throughfares in the old-town. The modern skyscraper is 1 Ilica (also known as Neboder, which literally means skyscaper). It was built in the fifties and was once the tallest building in Yugoslavia.
