Sightseeing
Take a tram number 14 or 17 towards city centre
-from our tram stop get off at 6th stop and you will be at
Croatian national theatre when you cross the road on your right, mUsic academy Will be on your left, such an architectural contrast.
If you have the time try Museum of Illusions close by- not to big and very entertaining!
Walk to Mesnička Street and enter Grič tunnel, a maze of underground tunnels in Zagreb, said they were built during World War I, but mentioned in the bookes centuries ago. During the war in the 90's it was a shelter for the People in the city Center.
Take the exit out of the tunnels at Tomićeva Street.
Down at the corner of Tomićeva and Ilica street you'll find great ice cream, Vincek.
Up Tomićeva, take Zagreb funicular to the upper town, you will exit in front of Lotrscak Tower, every day at the top of the Tower a Canon strikes noon, so if you can, be there to experience it.
Go up toward Gradec plateau and walk next to St Marks church one of the oldest monuments in Zagreb, its roof has the coat of arms of Zagreb (white castle on red background) and tribune kingdom od Croatia Dalmatia and Slavonia.
Museum of broken relationships is totally recommendable if you have the time, it went worldwide and started Here in Zagreb.
You can also get lost in the upper towns' cobbled streets, but be sure to visit the Stone gate, built in the 13th century, one of the best preserved monuments of the old Zagreb, and the only remaining old entrance to the upper town, once called Gradec.
Today Its a chapel, with the item they found perfectly intact in a huge fire 1731, the painting od St. Mary.
The oldest pharmacy in Zagreb is on the right just before the gate, super retro, has been working from the 14th century, to be precised 1355, when it was mentioned as By the black eagle, since at that time there were no numbers but the buildings were named after the symbols at their front, the eagle is still there . Try some of their products, Like balm for cracked lips!
From Radićeva Street you can walk down to Tkalčićeva street, through Bloody Bridge.
The bridge gained its name because of the constant conflicts happening on its wooden beams between the citizens of the two parts of Zagreb: Gradec and present day Kaptol.
Tkalčićeva street, known as Tkalča, crowded with locals and tourist, lots of cafes and restaurants.
At Skalinska street, just first one on the right, there is a restaurant called La Štruk to BE recommended, local food štrukli.
From Skalinska you can walk to the cathedral, it was fully renovated just before large earthquake in 2020 after which They had to remove the tower and start all over again.
On your way visit Dolac market- you can stop for some souvenires, eat burek and yogurt like the locals do at Burek and take a picture with the iconic statue of Kumica Barica, to celebrate all the women that sell products Here, the "belly od Zagreb", any time of the year, outside and inside the Dolac market.
Make a full circle of the center of Zagreb to the main city square of Ban Josip Jelačić and further down to Tomislav square. Nice parks Zrinjevac and Stross along the way.
From the main square you can take tram 14 and 17, back home or better walk down Praska street towards railway station (Tomislav square), and then take tram number 4.
You can also check out Cvjetni square and the night life down Preradovićeva Street.
Other interesting museum are
Tehnički muzej Nikola Tesla- awsome for kids as well
Muzej grada Zagreba
Etnografski muzej- small but often intertaining expositions
Chocolate museum
Zagreb 80's museum- also small yet Great opportunity to experience Zagreb in the period of Yugoslavia.
Lake Jarun is also quite close to our apartment, if you like, try walking to Sava river from and then take the promenade on your right. Great for enjoying some sun, takes about 25min to reach lake Jarun by foot. Lots of cafes there but its mostly summer thing. You can also take the tram, number 5 or 17.
If you go to the left when you get up the Sava walkaway, you will soon reach Boćarski dom, huge park for kids. 30 more minutes walking in that direction will get you to the Museum of contemporary art, MSU. They also have Metropolis cinema with projections of films from different festivals all over the world, member of Europa cinemas chain.
If you prefer to go by car, free parking for three hours is available in the Avenue mall garage, just across the street.
If you feel Like going to Mount Sljeme, from Gracani to the top you can either hike, drive, take the bus or one of the most expensive Cable car in Europe.
It is pretty, there is a Great newly renovated 360 degrees view cafe at the top. The food in the mountain huts is local and delicious.
You can also hike or drive from Šestine to Medvedgrad castle, a beautiful medieval city, closed on Mondays.
Or take the easier trail to Kraljicin zdenac next to a nice small creek Kraljevac with local food at Lugareva kućica at the end(closed Mondays also)
This is totaly recommendable, my favorite route, if you are into nature.
