Zagreb treats you to a colourful European cityscape that is rich in old-world architecture and charming medieval vibes. Walking down the city’s neat and cobbled streets, you have Gothic cathedrals with vividly coloured roofs and magnificent towers dating back to as far as the 13th century, together with outdoor cafes with parasol-covered tables overlooking quaint town squares.
From getting a taste of the rich local café culture of Zagreb to browsing local fresh markets and sightseeing around its core, getting around the city is made easy thanks to the city’s navigable network of pedestrian streets. The city also has an extensive public transport system that includes trams and buses, which make exploring further out a breeze.
