Zagreb Green Horseshoe - Lower Town

This is unique and the most completed walking tour of Zagreb historical part called Lower Town.

Let’s walk together through the complex of parks and squares called “Green horseshoe” to see the best examples of Art Nouveau and Art Déco styles in Zagreb. Discover how the life of Zagreb citizens was in the period from the mid of 19th century until WWII time. Find out where is a small fountain named "A boy who pees" (Zagreb's Manneken Pis or Petit Julien :-)


The tour is perfect for all visitors who like architecture/art.

It is also an excellent choice for those who either already have taken my 'Zagreb beyond the guidebooks - Upper Town' tour or any other Zagreb Upper Town tour but want to see what else Zagreb offers.


At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, European and American urban culture gave birth to two stylistic expressions – Art Nouveau and Art Déco.
Art nouveau is recognized by its wavy, natural lines that imitate a flower at the moment of blooming, while Art déco brings cooler symmetry, glamor and strictness of geometric shapes. 


This tour is easy to walk, since there is no stairs like in Upper Town. 


This tour includes:

Jurišićeva street 2 (very close to the main city square)

Ban Jelačić Square
Oktogon passageway

The tour ends on Zrinjevac  Square - close to the main Zagreb square – Ban Jelačić Square 

 

Let's walk, talk, and have fun together :-)

Hello, dear visitors! Zagreb is my hometown, which I never leave, except when I travel like you do :) So, I am a true local guide. In 2009 I became a licensed tourist guide for Zagreb city and Zagreb County. Since then, I have been conveying my love for Zagreb to people from all over the world, presenting the city through interesting stories and facts, with fun, but in a professional way. As a big fan of travel, I got a chance to visit many countries on almost all continents, but every time upon return to my city, I fall in love with it again.
