Highlights and tours in Zagreb and from Zagreb
Zagreb is an ideal cit to use up every single day you’re staying there. Being not as big as most European capitals, it gives you the opportunity to wander and explore all kinds of mutually different things that suit any taste. Either you’re a nature lover, an art enthusiast, or merely a hedonist that enjoys a bit of all in moderation, Zagreb works itself as Croatia’s maybe biggest attraction because it offers you so much in a relatively small space.
If not sure where to start while in Zagreb, a walking city tour of the city will give you a great start.
When you get to know the city better, you are ready to explore the secrets of Upper town.
Feel it’s historical background, visit attractions like St. Mark’s Church, Museum of Broken Relationships and Bloody Bridge. Treat yourself to a guided tour so you don’t miss anything from this historical jewel ( p.s. Don’t forget to visit the Museum of Zagreb and Museum of Naive art while being here!).
Downtown on a Saturday forenoon? Visit Zagreb’s main attraction, the Dolac market, located just above the central Ban Jelačić square and after that take a rest and enjoy a cup of coffee in Crowdy Tkalčićeva street or Cvjetni Square / Flower Square, the IT destinations during weekend and coffee rest.
In case you feel like walking in a more natural environment, in the very center you have the historical Zrinjevac park, an excellent venue which seems like it isn’t a part of the city at all.
