Vrbovsko info
Vrbovsko is a town in Primorje-Gorski Kotar county in Croatia. It is located at the eastern end of Gorski Kotar along the Zagreb-Rijeka highway, surrounded by lush deciduous and coniferous forests. It was first mentioned in the late 15th century as a property of the Frankopan family and is one of the oldest inhabited places in Gorski Kotar. With passing Karolina road, then Louisiana road at the beginning of the 19th century, Vrbovsko suddenly started developing services for providing accommodation to caravans and travelers. At the beginning of the 20th century, in Vrbovsko was built the first hotel, which was then the largest hotel from Zagreb to Rijeka.
