Heart shaped plaza where the Immigrant Mother statue stands. Reminder of the Licitar, a heart-shaped, colorfully decorated, honey gingerbread which is an ornamental expression of love at birthdays, Valentine’s Day and weddings. This unique Croatian confection is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage item for Croatia. A wreathe of red rose bushes and while flowers around the heart-shaped plaza complete the theme
