Putovanja: Od drevnih civilizacija do letova u svemir
Summary
Travels: From ancient civilizations to flights into space
Editor-in-chief: Zoran Maljković
One of the happiest moments in life is going on a long trip to unknown countries. And what did traveling look like in the past? Chronologically following the great journeys - from ancient civilizations that moved mainly for trade, through the migration of peoples, the first pilgrimages, great geographical discoveries, the first organized tourist routes, all the way to modern trips by all means of transport - Voyages will arouse nostalgia, but also tickle the imagination of all those for whom the journey itself is sometimes more enjoyable than the final destination.
Taste the excitement and romance of travel and many historical maps, beautiful photos, exotic travel equipment and tense testimonies.
The history of human travel represents an incredible journey from trekking through the deserts of the ancient world to exploring the endless expanses of space. What began as a struggle for survival and the search for resources, turned into global tourism and the search for new worlds among the stars.
