This paper presents first complex analysis of Turopolje region from the aspect of landscape character assesment. Research was done because this area of work was neither explored nor documented enough and characteristics and values of the landscape were not known. Besides that, current spatial planning documentation doesn't deal enough with landscape and space as a whole. In addition, there was the desire for a more detailed insight into the diversity and condition of the landscape as well as in the preferences of local population. According to the abovementioned problems, objectives of the work were defined and approached by a combined cabinet-field method. It included a literature survey what became a basis for the creation of the database of factors for the landscape of Turopolje. Additionally, a field trip was done, area was photographed, and population preferences were examined. Such a combined method resulted in experiantial analysis through the structural and sensory map and series of previous analysis. On this basis, characterization of the landscape was done. It defined 11 landscape areas that were described and evaluated. Besides that, local community was informed about the identified landscape values. Results of the overall research show that space of Turopolje region has numerous unique and valuable landscapes that are not familiar enough, not even in the view of the local inhabitants of Turopolje. Under the influence of various external factors, landscapes are exposed to intense changes and gradually discard certain elements of recognizability. Therefore, it is necessary to inform the population better about the values of the landscape, to create preconditions for the development of sustainable activities and to invest in the revitalization and protection of the landscape.
