Zagreb Decoded with Your Local Guru

Zagreb Decoded with Your Local Guru

Our meeting point is the Music Pavilion, the heart of Zrinjevac Park — one of the most elegant and picturesque parts of Zagreb’s famous Green Horseshoe.

From there, we’ll head to the city’s vibrant main square, Trg Bana Josipa Jelačića — the place to be if you want to celebrate a big win of Croatian athletes or mark your last day of high school by jumping into the Manduševac fountain like generations before you.

After sharing some fascinating stories about the main square, we’ll leave the Lower Town behind for a while and make our way up to the Upper Town — the very birthplace of Zagreb.

There, we’ll discover the two medieval towns, Kaptol and Gradec, from which Zagreb was born. This area is a never-ending source of urban legends, religious and political debates, love stories and war tales. It’s also home to charming pubs, cozy restaurants, museums, and some of the city’s most iconic landmarks — the Cathedral, Stone Gate, St. Mark’s Church, Radićeva Street, Tkalčićeva Street, and more.

At the end of our walk, we’ll return to the Lower Town and say goodbye at the main square — hopefully not as strangers anymore.

Hope to see you soon
