Sažetak
In the frame of the Atlas of Eastern and Southeastern Europe, edited by the Austrian Institute of East and Southeast European Studies in Vienna, a map on international tourist attractions in Central and Southeastern Europe is under elaboration. This map is compiled by an international team of tourism geographers and will represent besides Croatia Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, "Yugoslavia", Macedonia, Albania, Bulgaria, Romania and Moldavia in total as well as large parts of Germany, Austria, Italy,
Greece, Turkey, the Ukraine, Belorussia, Russia and Lithuania in the scale 1: 3,000,000. It is the aim of this map to provide international investors in tourism and travel agencies with a comparative survey over the touristic potential of this larger region, not available from tourist
guides or national studies. The paper informs about the methods and problems of categorizing and ranking tourist attractions on an international scale based on the discussions around and the experience derived from the elaboration of this map and tries to evaluate Croatia's international tourist attractions, their relative attractiveness and their perspectives within the scope of a further valorisation of tourist attractions in this larger region.
