The central location of the Jalaić Governor's Square in Zagreb is a symbol of Croatia's struggle for national independence. The Tito period was replaced with a statue of a guerrilla, and after Croatia's independence, the Jalaić Governor was in the center of the square.
Governor-General Yelachec Square was built in the 17th century, and it was named in 1850, and gradually became the city center. In 1866, the center of the square stood a statue of Governor Yelachec riding. The status is equivalent to Beijing Tiananmen Square, Moscow's Red Square, which is a little smaller.
Croatia is located in the south-central Europe, northwest of the Balkans. The northwest and the north are bordered by Slovenia and Hungary, the east and southeastern are bordered by Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro, and the west and south are bordered by the Adriatic Sea. There are many islands and twisting coastlines, which are 1,880 kilometers long and have a land area of 10,000 square kilometers.
Built in the 17th century. With the development of history, the city has been unable to meet the needs of increasingly active commercial activities. In 1641, the Sa Municipal Government decided to move the commercial center to the lower city, and opened a new market place on the edge of the lower city square spring, and gradually developed into a new city center. In 1850, the square was named after the current name. In 1866, the statue of Governor Yelaić was erected in the center of the square. After World War II, the square was renamed the Plaza de la Republique, and the statue of Governor Yelaić was replaced by a statue of a guerrilla. After Clements independence, the statue of Governor Jelacić was removed from the museum and the square was restored to its old appearance.
This is the center of the city, where many government agencies are distributed.
