Zagreb, a city rich in history, culture, art and beauty
There is a lot to see and do in Zagreb. The cityscape of the Croatian capital consists of medieval, neo-Gothic, and Austro-Hungarian influences, reflecting an ancient legacy stretching back to Roman times. As you stroll from the thousand-year-old Upper Town district of Gornji grad, with the magnificent cathedral spires in view, down the tree-lined Strossmayer Promenade, and onto the cobbled streets of Donji grad (the 19th-century lower town), you will see impressive sights such as the Croatian Parliament, presidential palaces, galleries, museums, and theaters.
Freetour.com recommends taking a free walking tour of Zagreb to gain insight into its vast and fascinating history, including medieval conflict, a devastating 17th-century fire, and a very recent war of independence. Key sights include the Stone Gate, Krvavi Most (the Bloody Bridge), and the 13th-century Lotrscak Tower.
After exploring Zagreb with a charming local guide, you can relax in one of the many beautiful parks, such as Maksimir Park. You can also indulge in some shopping on Ilica Street, enjoy a coffee in Ban Jelacic Square, or view art in the Art Pavilion. The Mimara Museum features works by Manet, Rembrandt, and Renoir. Zagreb's nightlife is lively and atmospheric, with many clubs and pubs to explore. The many bars, restaurants, and cafes on Tkalciceva Street host a vibrant local social life and culture enjoyed by both young and old, and they are not to be missed when visiting this wonderful city.
