Zagreb Time machinhe - branding History of zuagreb as Cultural/Touristic attraction

Ovaj rad prikazuje razvoj brenda u turizmu na primjeru projekta Turističke zajednice grada Zagreba, Zagrebački vremeplov. Ovaj projekt je specifičan jer, osim što na jedinstven način prikazuje prošlost, kulturu i tradiciju grada Zagreba, pokazuje i kako se iz jedne jednostavne ideje razvio brend koji ima direktan utjecaj na razvitak turizma u Zagrebu, ali i na brendiranje Zagreba kao turističke destinacije. Projekt Zagrebački vremeplov pokazuje specifičnost ovakvih kulturnih manifestacija koje zahtjevaju suradnju većeg broja institucija i ljudi. Iako je projekt realiziran prije šesnaest godina, postepeno se razvijao i nadograđivao kako bi danas bio to što jest, kulturno-turistička atrakcija koja obogaćuje sadržaje i ponudu grada Zagreba. U radu su prezentirani i rezultati provedene ankete među posjetiteljima Zagrebačkog vremeplova te dubinski intervjui sa zaposlenicima Turističke zajedinice grada Zagreba, koji dokazuju činjenicu da je projekt izvršio svoj cilj, a to je upotpuniti ponudu grada Zagreba te stvoriti ugodnu atmosferu svim posjetiteljima.This text shows the development of brand in tourism on the example of the project of Tourist board of Zagreb, Zagreb Time Machine.
