The development of the downtown Zagreb starts in the mid 19th century. This is exactly why this part of the town reminds us of Vienna, Budapest or Prague; the many parks, museums, squares and building with gorgeous ornaments as well as other cultural monuments are works of renowned architects, builders and urban planners of its age. This tour is great for anyone who likes exploring the flat part of the city, but still being in an older part full of history and galleries. Often, this is the central part of the town where cultural events, manifestations, markets, and music events are organized. It is also the bellowed part of the city where locals like to hang out, enjoy the green parks and pavilions in the shade.

We will start this tour of the most important historical and cultural sights of Zagreb from Kaptol and the Zagreb Cathedral, which is still the tallest building in Croatia.

Heading south, we will enjoy the view of various historical buildings on the way, as well as examples of striking modern architecture, such as the famous Cibona tower. Our stop on the south side of Zagreb is Jarun, the recreational and sport center of Zagreb. The two lakes and numerous beaches of Jarun are a particular treat in hot summer months. We will then visit Lenuci’s Horseshoe, the green heart of Zagreb, known for its parks and architectural works from Secessionist and Neoclassical periods. Afterwards, a stroll around the Upper Town, the political center of Zagreb, will lead us towards the finish of our tour, which will take place where we have started, at Kaptol.
