There are so many cool things to do in Zagreb, Croatia. The capital of Croatia is a medium-sized city with a big personality — yet it often ends up in the shadow of the islands, beaches, and waterfalls that define how many travelers see Croatia.
But Zagreb is one of the best places to visit in the country. Here you have a wonderful walking city — parts with candy-colored buildings and traditional cobblestone alleyways, parts that are gleaming and modern, and a fabulous collection of parks. The cafe scene here is fabulous, and here you’ll find the best restaurants in the country.
Zagreb is also home to my favorite museum in the world (yes, the WORLD) — the Museum of Broken Relationships, which will move you again and again with its bite-sized stories of love lost.
Some come to Zagreb for the beginning of your Croatia road trip. Come to Zagreb for a city getaway weekend when the weather is warm. Come to Zagreb for the best Christmas markets you’ve never heard of.
Zagreb is here and waiting for you.
