Dubrava became just a meme, all sorts of things happened there 25, 30 years ago, today you can only get into trouble if you look for it. As a long time cityzen of Dubrava, I can confirm that there is no reason to fear walking at night.
Yeah, not really, i mean my first apartment in 92 was in student city in dubrava, walked drunk home in the middle of the night many times, never ever felt threatened. Lived there at leat 6-7 times more in the span of 15 years or so, nope, not more dangerous than new zagreb or many other hoods. I got really domesticated only there, met all of the locals, junkies, dealers, as a customee mostly, or a friend drinking beer or smoking with them. If you are a part of some criminal structure yourself, then you nay have some enemies, if you're just a local or passer by, then again, you'll sooner get beaten in dugave or kustosija or salata even, where kids those hood fantasies and wet dreams about their adress on a postcard. But it's rubbish to talk about being dangerous anywhere in croatia, split, zadar, rijeka, pula, all the same story.
I have never been afraid anywhere in Croatia - before midnight, past midnight, early morning. When going out over the weekend or travelling as a tourist.
Yesterday Croatian Man died in St.James hospital been beaten to Death last Saturday just after 10pm in Clondalkin area of Dublin, Ireland.Many people including Croats need to know that Irish & British cities are completely opposite at evenings ( much better,safer option to cycle) even though most of their people are so friendly & supportive ! IRL & UK have unfortunately hospital & housing crisis and should send people who claim asylum to other EU countries where workers are needed !!!Asylum applicants risk their lifes crossing La Manche channel just to get benefits & unemployment welfare !!! Thats why young Irish & British people are getting so angry & violent ! Yes Croatian & Slovenian cities with many in Italy too are exactly how you described Zagreb ! Well done 👏👏👏👏👏
Nakon Hrvatskih nogometaša, tvoji videi su nešto što doprinosi našoj zemlji više od državne HTZ.. baš si faca, ako te ikad sretnem častim pivom. / After Croatian national football national team, your videos are something that contributes to our country, tourism and promotion, more than the state Croatian National Tourist Board .. you're quite the Good egg, if I ever see you, I will buy you a beer.. cheers mate.
It's fascinating to see how experiences can vary so greatly from person to person. I actually lived in Dubrava for 3 months when I first moved to Zagreb.I felt quite safe there. Later, I moved to Trešnjevka, and, if I'm being honest, I felt safer in Dubrava than I did in Trešnjevka. It just goes to show that the "most dangerous" labels can often be misleading and not reflective of everyone's experiences. Safety can be very subjective and dependent on a variety of factors, including personal experiences and interactions within these neighborhoods. Btw I make videos about Croatia.
Good stuff. I’ve never felt threatened anywhere in Hrvatska. Of course there’s always a chance of something happening anywhere in the world. That’s life… Živjeli 🍻
Nothing is not dangerous in Croatia 🇭🇷 or minimum …we don’t have milions foreigners from all continents. It’s much more dangerous in Oslo where i live …Somalians,Arabics,Pakistan and others.
hahaha great video,,, as you said - if you are not involved in sh"t it 99% wont affect you,,, you never know if something is falling on your head just walking by etc. hopefully nobody in Dubrava is going to be offended by the fact that they are not south central LA... but as always I wouldn't recommend to take a walk through Dubrava in a Hajduk shirt 1950 HŽV,,,, al the best!
Gluposti. Mitovi. Uz to, prije 30 godina je bio rat. Puno ljudi je bilo, na smjene, u vojsci. Kada se i to uzme u obzir, naravno da je priča o Dubravi mit. Naravno, možeš svugdje dobiti šaku u nos ako si bezobrazan. I ako si klevetnik.
Dubrava is a place in Zagreb with most East European foreigners. Police knows everyone dodgy there. And those guy know if anything happened to anyone outside they would be in ton of shit. Meaning it's prolly the safest place here. Ofc if you come to Dubrava looking for trouble on purpose, you'll definitely find ppl willing to give you what you are searching for.
Dubrava. That has been tough neighbourhood (and that was during the war of the 90s mind you because of the fresly moved refugees from Vukovar, and some Croatian Kosovar (from the Catholic village of Janjevo), as well as their Macedonian Muslim Albanian countrymen. But that danger can't compare to real slums. This country had is share of massacres and shootings, now you have on German TV Not to advertise it here, but you know the one) in Croatia TV documentary Dosje Jarak. So check it out. That were our scary situations.
I could take you to several neighbourhoods in Liverpool that make that place look seriously posh, I mean I didn't see any burnt out cars prozzies or somebody asking if you want to buy some crack smack or blow
Since Max Igan visit in Croatia in a month for a whole month tells the story of safe ti, nobles noted Rick Simpson after Canadian Royalty dumped him is healing in Croatia....
Brick story is a true one, but it belongs to some long past times as far as I recollect. ATM, the most wild parts are no more in Dubrava. Dubrava has past the level of open street crime. For some more danger, you might go to Kozari Bok or Kozari Putevi, but even there, you wouldn't be threatened as you are a strangers and it might be that some locals would like to have a drink with you and tell how even police doesn't come to there's hood....and you know what? Police in did don't go in there's hood but I don't think you will be robbed or anything like that. Who knows, there you could find best friends for that evening or even in life or you could be beaten...or both. As long as you show due respect to your hosts, you have no problems. As you said for Kotor - you are of no interest if you are not involved in "bussiness" or you don't make some drunk troubles.
Thanks for such a good content Paul, much appreciate how you speak about Croatia, you're a legend, should be honoured by the president, but you know how much they care anyways..

In the 90s when we were young, yes, Dubrava was "different". A lot od drugs, crimes, etc..
Gluposti.

Yes, as i said, if you are not involved in certain activities, very safe
Paul you should have tried "kupiti ciglu" not in pizzeria but in a "narodnjački klub" where the crowd listens to "cajka" folk music... 😀
Croatians LOVe 'cajkas" more than serb-cetniks.
Well this is the first video in a series...
almost swallowed an olive! 😂😂😂😂😂
The Dubrava danger does that to a man
It was quite traumatic to be honest. Without the moral support of Paul on the day I'd be a wreck

There are no dangerous neighborhoods in Croatia, you don't even have to look for them...
Exactly.
My view as well, which is why i did the video to show that
In Croatia we have simple rule, respect culture and mind your own business. And you can go anywhere, anytime without problem :) Cheers
