On Monday, July 22, 2024, as part of the "Safe Tourist Destination" project in the area of the Zagreb Police Department, joint police patrols began with two police officers from the PR China. They are assigned to the central area of Zagreb along with Zagreb police officers, especially at locations frequented by the most tourists.
The "Safe Tourist Destination 2024" project was officially opened on July 18 in Šibenik as part of the continuous preventive activities of the police and with the aim of strengthening international police cooperation. The aim of the project is to increase the safety of citizens and tourists. The project started in 1994 with the intention of providing tourists with a safe stay in Croatia. Since 2006, on the initiative of the Croatian police, other European countries have been sending their police officers to Croatia during the tourist season. Until 2023, 24 police organizations from 21 countries participated in the project.
For the 2024 season, the participation of 20 police organizations from 19 countries with a total of 97 foreign police officers is expected. From 2006 until now, a total of 1,207 foreign police officers will participate in the project.
Foreign police officers serve alongside Zagreb colleagues to establish direct contact with their nationals and improve communication between the Zagreb police and foreign nationals. The aim of the cooperation is to achieve and increase the sense of security of citizens and foreign tourists staying in Zagreb. Foreign police officers are there to help their nationals and Zagreb police officers in achieving better communication with guests from their countries. The project is not only intended for Chinese tourists but includes all visitors to Zagreb.
Since 2018, eight Chinese police officers have participated in the project in Zagreb, while two are deployed in 2024. The presence of foreign police officers helps create a sense of security among foreign citizens, which is one of the reasons they choose Croatia as a tourist destination.
Last year, 2023, Zagreb was visited by more than 1.3 million tourists, who achieved over 2 million overnight stays. Among them, guests from the PR China achieved 34,913 overnight stays. In the first half of 2024, Zagreb recorded 601,818 arrivals, of which 468,053 were foreign guests, and 1,186,570 overnight stays, of which 945,418 were foreign guests. Chinese guests have already achieved 22,013 overnight stays.
The "Safe Tourist Destination" project contributes to the success of every tourist destination because security is a key factor for visitors. The Zagreb Police Department strives to ensure that Zagreb and Croatia are recognized as the safest tourist destinations. The city of Zagreb represents a safe place for various forms of communication and interaction, including tourism, business, and cultural spheres. The project significantly contributes to this goal, ensuring tourists a safe and pleasant stay.
The Zagreb Police Department cooperates with other police organizations to ensure the safety of all visitors.
