Hotel Dubrovnik - Zagreb, Croatia
I stayed 2 nights at the Hotel Dubrovnik. The location is perfect for exploring Zagreb. It's right on the central square, I had a room on the 4th floor overlooking the square. It was so comfortable and convenient, I was able to walk around, stop back in my room to relax or switch our camera gear so easily.
The breakfast was very good as well, a great selection. Thanks again for the very nice stay at the Hotel Dubrovnik, stay there next time you visit Zagreb!

Split, Croatia - Travel Around The World | Top best places to visit in Split
Top best places to visit in Split, Croatia
Split is the second largest city of Croatia and the largest city of the region of Dalmatia.
It lies on the eastern shore of the Adriatic Sea and because of its ideal climate, with a lot of sun each year, locals often nicknamed their city as the “Mediterranean Flower”.
Split is built around the Roman Palace of the Emperor Diocletian and wandering the historic center you can still clearly see the Roman temples, squares, streets, gates and walls.
On the main square stands a building, originally built around year 300 as a mausoleum for the Roman emperor Diocletian, the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, the oldest cathedral building in the world.
There are four entrances to the Palace:
Through the monumental, eastern Silver Gate.
Through the western Iron Gate with the old city clock counting 24 digits. Outside this gate is located the Old Town Hall and the People’s Square, the central venue of the city’s social life.
The Golden Gate, the northern entrance, is a favorite tourist spot, together with the nearby grandiose statue of the Gregory of Nin.
The southern Brass Gate is modest in size but also the “main” gate as the tourists pass through it most frequently coming and going on the Riva, the main city promenade.
At the other end of the Riva promenade is situated a beautiful venetian plaza, the Republic Square.
Split is an oasis for those who look for a natural stress relief.
On Marian Hill there is a big forest park with wonderful panoramic views.
Around the park are many perfect places to swim, like the Kasjuni Beach.
Or, favorites among locals, the beautiful pine forest Bene Beach.
Split has many museums worth a visit, such as:
The Archaeological Museum, the oldest museum in Croatia.
The Museum of Fine Arts, which contains works from the 14th century up to the present day.
The Museum of Croatian Archaeological Monuments that presents cultural artifacts of the Croats in the Middle Ages.
The Mestrovic Gallery, an art museum dedicated to the work of the sculptor, Ivan Meštrović.
The city is a home for one of the biggest and oldest theaters in Croatia, the National Theater.
In Split you can not miss the multi-use stadium as it is one of the sportiest cities in the world.
Just outside the city are the ruins of Salona one of the biggest towns of the Roman Empire.
It has a very well preserved basilica, cemetery, amphitheater and many other Roman buildings.
About 10 km from Split there is the Klis Fortress, a medieval stronghold with fascinating history and an incredible view.

The impressions of many foreigners who live in Zagreb, business people and tourists can be summed up in a single sentence: a large city which managed to stay romantic and safe. There are unlimited possibilities for visiting music and theatre events, art exhibitions, museums, sporting events and enjoying pleasant walks, interesting architecture, plentiful parks in the centre of the city, pedestrian zones and the atmosphere.
Zagreb is the city of international fairs, conventions, business meetings (Zagreb Fair and congresses), as well as sporting events. There are more than 6,000 beds in hotels, some of them belonging to world-famous hotel chains. The number of small and family-owned hotels and hostels is increasing. They all share the same level of professionalism and hospitality.
Place Featured:
Situated just below the hillside settlements of Kaptol and Gradec, it has served as the city’s commercial heart ever since 1641, when it was designated as a place where fairs could be held. Most of the buildings around the square date from the 19th century, and display a variety of architectural styles, from Biedermaier to Art Nouveau and Post-modernism. The square was Zagreb’s main marketplace and carried the name “Harmica” (Hungarian for “one thirtieth”), after the tax levied on the goods that were sold here. In 1848 the square was officially renamed in honour of Ban (“Governor”) Josip Jelačić. After World War II the name of the square was changed to “Republic Square”, only to return to its previous title in 1990.
The Zagreb Cathedral on Kaptol is a Roman Catholic institution and not only the tallest building in Croatia, but also the most monumental sacral building in Gothic style southeast of the Alps
Tkalciceva Street is a beautiful street of Zagreb lined with restaurants and cafes. At that same place once flowed a river that separated the districts of Kaptol and Gradec.
This 13th-century church is one of Zagreb's most emblematic buildings. Its colourful tiled roof, constructed in 1880, has the medieval coat of arms of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia on the left side, and the emblem of Zagreb on the right.

수도 자그레브의 젊은이들 밤 문화가 궁금했다. 12시가 넘은 시각, 주말이어서인지 중앙광장엔 젊은 사람들로 붐빈다. 화려한 가로등 불빛 아래 삼삼오오 그룹을 지어 어디론가 향하는 그들을 따라가 봤다. 흥겨운 춤과 다소 시끄러운 음악, 그리고 요란한 실내조명이 눈길을 끈다. 늦은 주말 밤, 청춘들은 자유로웠고 외로워 보이지 않았다. 어느 시대, 어느 나라 청춘이든 그들에겐 행복한 시간이 필요한 법이다. “단순히 춤을 추기 위해 춤을 추는 게 아니라 다른 사람을 알려고 하죠. 삶의 방식입니다.” “그냥 가서 아무 사람과 춤을 추는 겁니다. 그리고는 마치 다른 우주에 있는 것처럼 춤을 즐기는 거예요” 크로아티아 젊은이들의 소통 방식이 참 부럽다.

I was wondering about the night culture of the young people of Zagreb in Zagreb, and after 12 o'clock, on the weekend, it was crowded with young people in the central plaza, and they built a group of twenty three under the light of a gorgeous street light and followed them where they were heading. It is not just for dancing to dance, but for other people as it is not just for dancing, it is not just for dancing. It's a way of life, he says, just go and dance with anyone, and then dance like you are in another universe.

Exploring Zagreb, Croatia! Food, Markets & Attractions | Travel Vlog Day 2,3
Today I went to explore the old city of Zagreb Croatia. It was 10 minutes walk from Hostel Temza to the Central square. Saw Ban Josip Jelačić statue, Zagreb cathedral and walked to Dolac Market. Then, I went to St Mark's church which is a top tourist attraction. After that, I went to a restaurant called Purgur which was recommended by the hostel to try local cuisine. I ordered beef stew and a beer which cost total of $18 USD. For dinner, I got some cooked food from the supermarket. #croatia #travel #travelvlog #vlog #explore #vacation #adventure #zagreb #video #food #market #city #attractions #time #fun #top #trending #popular #dream #want #discover #follow #tourist #tour #document #beautiful #wow #amazing

How to spend a night in Zagreb Old Town I Croatia Vlog I Ep9
We did a quick night tour of Old Town Zagreb. We visited the main square (Ban Jelačić Square) in Zagreb old town which is pretty much alive even after 8pm. We spent some time here watching the trams crossing each other, people hustling from one side to the other, the equestrian statue of Ban Jelačić and a local musician playing his guitar. Then we bought some souvenir from a shop behind the square and visited the Zagreb cathedral to end our trip. We had a big trip the next morning to Plitvice National Park hence we needed some good rest to refresh and reenergize for the long hike ahead.
The thing here is that Zagreb is much further from the sea so even in the peak summer season nights are filled with a chill, unlike Split and Dubrovnik. So if you're visiting Zagreb considering packing a light jacket or something to keep you and your baby warm.
Croatia Travel Video (Dubrovnik, Split, Hvar, Zagreb, Korcula)
Croatia, officially the Republic of Croatia, is a country at the crossroads of Central and Southeast Europe, on the Adriatic Sea.
