10 Things to do in Zagreb, Croatia Travel Guide Video Transcript:
Our travels in Croatia brought us to Zagreb known for its lively street markets, vast green spaces, and varied architecture that spans numerous movements, we reached the capital and hit the ground running. In this video we’re going to show you some fun things to do in Zagreb, as well as share our favourite place for sampling the most delicious truffle dishes:
From the main square you have the Flower Market, and if you head up the steps, that leads to Zagreb’s Central Market.
Zagreb Cathedral is one the city’s main landmarks. This is the largest sacral building in the Gothic style southeast of the Alps, and it’s pretty easy to spot the spires wherever you are in the city.
Our walk through the Upper Town eventually lead us to Tkalčićeva. These days you’ll find a lively street lined with restaurants, cafes and bars.
We reached what may be the most memorable museum in the whole world: The Museum of Broken Relationships. The museum is a global crowd-sourced project that deals with heartbreak. Inside you’ll find curious objects with a corresponding story.
St. Mark’s Church bears the medieval coat of arms of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia on the left-hand side, and the emblem of Zagreb on the right.
To enjoy city views of the Lower Town there are some great vantage points along the promenade.
On our way down from the Upper Town, we walked through Zagreb’s famed Stone Gate. Once the eastern gate into the medieval settlement now houses a small chapel.
Let’s take a break from all the sightseeing to introduce you to one of our favourite restaurants in Zagreb when it comes to truffle dishes
And craving more views of the city, we then went up Zagreb 360.
Known as the Green Horseshoe, this park was named after Milan Lenuci who came up with the idea of creating connected green spaces right in the downtown. The horseshoe is home to several museums, galleries and archives.
If you’re into hockey and you visit Zagreb during the season, you can catch a game in the city. We watched Medveščak Zagreb play.
And that’s it for our visit to Zagreb! We hope you enjoyed this travel guide and that you got a few ideas of things to see, eat and do on your own visit.
This is part of our Travel in Croatia video series showcasing Croatian food, Croatian culture and Croatian cuisine.

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.

Croatia's beautiful Capital ZAGREB!
Join us as we explore the beautiful city of Zagreb. Zagreb's history dates back to the Roman times, it's where Central Europe, the Mediterranean and Southeast Europe meet. Let's Go!
Zagreb, Croatia - Ζάγκρεμπ
Zagreb (Greek : Ζάγκρεμπ) is the capital and the largest city of Croatia. It is located in the northwest of the country, along the Sava river, at the southern slopes of the Medvednica mountain. Zagreb lies at an elevation of approximately 122 m (400 ft) above sea level. The estimated population of the city in 2018 is 809,773. Zagreb metropolitan area population is slightly above 1.1 million inhabitants and it makes approximately a quarter of a total population of Croatia.
Plitvice National Park and Zagreb, Croatia
Travel video blog about Plitvice National Park and Zagreb in Croatia.
We departed Zadar at lunch time and headed to Croatia’s most famous National park: Plitvice. We had booked a hotel in the area to stay for the night because we had planned to visit the park that afternoon, and then again on the following morning. Everyone says that to make the most of your time in Plitvice you should wake up early in the morning to avoid the crowds in the park, but I am not really a morning person, so I decided to split my visit into two days. We reached Plitvice around 3 pm on that day, and immediately upon arrival we headed to the park to explore the lower lakes.
Plitvice National Park is one of the oldest national parks in Croatia and undoubtedly the most popular park for travelers. The park is protected by UNESCO and it contains a series of beautiful lakes, caves and waterfalls formed by processes typical of karst. The national Park is truly beautiful, the lakes have crystal clear waters and there are many amazing landscapes, however, it’s a little hard to take photographs without anyone in it given that the walkaways are usually packed with hundreds of other tourists. Still, it’s totally worth the effect of going there. If you prefer to avoid the crowds then my suggestion is to avoid going between 10 am to 3 pm, which is when the tour buses are there. Shoulder seasons are also preferred, spring, autumn and end of summer are your best bet, or even winter if you like cold.
After exploring the lower lakes that afternoon, we went back to our hotel and stayed for the night. On the next morning, we woke up early to explore the upper Lakes. We left our hotel at about 8:00 am to take the first boat towards the trail of the upper lakes and spent about 4 hours exploring the remaining of the park. Both the lower trail and the upper trail are very beautiful. If you wish to explore both, you will most likely need one full day or two half days like we did.
After lunch we left the park and headed to Croatia’s lovely capital City: Zagreb. I was not expecting much of Zagreb so I had planned to stay there for one night only, but I have to admit that I was pleasant surprised of how much I liked it. Zagreb is probably the most underrated city in Croatia, if not, in the whole Europe. The city boasts a charming medieval architecture with colorful buildings, it also has a good tram network and many options of places to enjoy great food. Zagreb’s nightlife is also vibrant, with many bars and nightclubs to choose from. It’s was definitely worth to spend the day there and I wish we had stayed longer.
Some of the places we visited in Zagreb were: St Marks’ church, Cathedral of the Assumption, the lower and the upper town, The King Tomislav Square, Zabreb’s farmer market and Gradec Plateau (where you can see the street art in the video). Zagreb is sometimes overlooked as a travel destination for some travelers, but if you have the chance, you should definitely visit it for a day or two (maybe three?) as the city has plenty to offer.
We slept in Zagreb on that night and then on the following morning, we departed early in the morning for Budapest, in Hungary. See the link for the video at the bottom of the page.

Best Time to Visit Croatia I Journey from Dubrovnik to Zagreb I Ep8
In this episode of our Croatia travel series, I'll explain to you in details about the best time to visit Croatia. While on the way to Dubrovnik airport to fly to Zagreb I had a lengthy discussion with our Uber guy on the best time to visit Croatia and you will listen in his own voice what he thinks about the same and how it differs for different nationalities. The best time to visit Croatia is a subjective term and it all depends on your interests and what you want to see and do while in Croatia. If you watch the video the message is very clear. So choose your time based on your interests and that would be YOUR best time to visit Croatia.
Bonus: While on the way to Dubrovnik airport we took a detour to visit a place on the way, which most of the tourists misses. Exceptional view from this place and something you shouldn't miss while in Dubrovnik.
