- Things To Do in ZAGREB Croatia. I’m Rok and I’ve spent last 8 years travelling around Europe as a tour guide and I want to show you my favourite 10 Things To Do In Zagreb Croatia. I prepared Zagreb travel guide to help you organise your trip to Zagreb. I will take you around Croatian capital city Zagreb, to show you my favourite Zagreb Attractions.
Here is my Top 10 Zagreb list:
00:00 - Intro
00:24 - 10. King Tomislav Square
This is one of the biggest squares in Zagreb named after king Tomislav, the first Croatian king from 925. Behind this square there are two more parks and that connect Main Train station with the city centre.
02:32 - 9. Zagreb museum of broken relationships
Zagreb has more museums per capita than any other city in the world. They also have different and interesting museums like this museum devoted to break-ups. Inside is a large collection of seemingly random items, each accompanied by a panel explaining their significance to a relationship that didn’t work out or ended in a tragic way.
03:35 - 8. Mirogoj Cemetery
It is half park, half cemetery. This is considered to be one of the most beautiful cemeteries in Europe.
04:35 - 7. Zagreb main square - Ban Jelačić
This is Zagreb main square and the social heart of Zagreb. Most of the buildings around the square date from the 19th century. This is the best starting point in Zagreb since this square is part of pedestrian area and you are within walking distance of all the major attractions. In the middle of the square there is a statue of a national hero after whom the square is named.
06:25 - 6. Dolac market
Most visited and best known Famers market in Zagreb. It is a combination of traditional open market with stalls and a sheltered market below. In the open air part of the market farmers from surrounding villages come to sell their home grown fruit and vegetables. In the covered market are butchers, fishmongers and ladies selling cheese and cream.
07:47 - 5. Tkalciceva Street
Before this street emerged here was a creek separating two towns that didn't like each other too much: One was Kaptol, town for clergy and the other was Gradec town for artisans and tradesmen. In late 19 century they covered a creek and this street was created. At the time it was famous as the red light district full of brothels. Today it is a popular pedestrian café street lined with cafes, restaurants, and small shops on both sides.
09:08 - 4. Stone Gate
The only remaining gate from the old city wall of town Gradec, one of the two old towns of todays Zagreb. This gate were built in 13 century and besides being a historic gate they serve as an open-air chapel. If you come here, take a moment, light a candle and pray for health, happiness, good luck and love.
11:16 - 3. Zagreb Catedral
The tallest building in Croatia, with 108 meters or 355 feet. It is a Roman Catholic church from 13 century built in Gothic style. It has a status of cathedral and it is the most important church in Croatia.
13:37 - 2. Zagreb tower - Lotroscak tower
Tower was built in the 13th century to guard the southern gate of the Gradec town wall one of the two old towns of todays Zagreb. It was named after the bell in the tower that rang every evening before the town gates closed. Later tower served as a prison. Nowadays it houses a gallery and an art shop, and the view from the top is well worth the climb. This tower also holds one of Zagrebs landmarks, Zagreb cannon named Grič cannon that fires every day at noon.
15:46 - 1. St. Mark Church - Zagreb church
This is one the oldest buildings and one of Zagrebs landmarks. It is roman catholic church constructed in the 13th century. It has uniquely colourful tiled roof featuring the coat of arms of Zagreb and coat of arms of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia. The Gothic portal, composed of 15 figures in shallow niches, was sculpted in the 14th century. Sculptures presented Virgin Mary with the Child, Christ, St.Mark and the apostles.

I was slowly getting into your story when you mentioned the Museum of broken relationships. Now THAT got my total attention. Absolutely a very informative video and helpful for those deciding to want to visit. We have decided to want to travel more within Europe so Zagreb is definitely on the list. A great video. 👍❤️✅
This was the most funny experience in any museum. You should go.
Another great video. How long have you been doing this? Your videos look fantastic. should have a lot more subs
Thanks for kind words and support. I have been a tour guide for 8 years and video creator for 12 years now😉
Moj voljeni Zagreb u ❤️
Nice city! And great editing of the video! Loved the special effects, especially when you showed the images from above. You also seem to know so much about the place's history, awesome! Well done :-)
Thank you for nice words and support. I would like to provide useful content since I am a Tour guide ;)
I've been twice to Zagreb and had an apartment in Ban Jelecic square facing the flower market. This was fun to watch again.
Thanks :)
Daim. How much did that cost ?
Nice upload dear, very informative...great cover and awesome guide for those who coming here for the 1st time....great vlog👍
Thank you
You are an amazing travel guide, love how you present it and very informative though, so many countries and no time to travel.so sad.
Thank you for your support. Glad you enjoyed it!
Obožavam svoj rodni Zagreb. Hvala svima kojo ga vole i poštuju.❤️👍
Been wanting to go to Zagreb and Croatia for awhile. I love how you guys have the Google Map in there as well to give a sense of where things are in the city. Great tips and background information as well!
Thank you for kind words and support
Very well excellent done. Have seen many travel vlogs of people just wandering around wanderlessly and they make the city look boring, whereas it is in fact a nice, vibrant city to visit. I always visit ZG when I go to Croatia if even for a night - and even in the summer (although it's pretty empty then as most people are on the coast ).
Croatia is not only about the "coast" - I think you need to defintely visit capital and inland areas to get a whole better understanding of the country as a whole.
Thanks. I absolutely agree with you.
Good work and quality. Liked the zoom map elements. Have subbed. What a tiled roof and 13c. Keep safe. 👍🌈
Thanks for the sub! Glad that you liked it. Zagreb is really beautiful and underrated. Stay safe.
Loved your guide to the top 10 Zagreb attractions! I'm particularly interested in the Broken Relationships Museum, what an idea...it will be the first thing I visit in Zagreb. Curious what season was the video taken?
Thanks for your support. Video was taken in march 🙂
Great tour of Zagreb! Very informative video!
Thank you!
Well done Sir/Alle Ehre und Respekt/Odlično napravljeno

Я внимательно и с любовью смотрю на каждый камень Загреба, ведь по этим камням ходила Gyöngyi!
We never really considered Zagreb but now after this video, we put it on our travel list. Thank you for going to the cemetery, we always love to see cemeteries when we travel. The market looks great, did you manage to try some fish? Great video, so well made!
Thank you. Glad you liked it. This cemetery is really nice. Market is really cool, so much fresh home grown stuff. I skipped the fish this time. Usually I have fish on the coast.
I like your videos. You do a great job😃👍 I also like to visit different countries, but my channel is about cooking😄

Wow, thanks for your support!
Excellent knowledge and facts shared, definitely my type of video that keeps me engaged. Did you use Google earth for the map zooms? Did that really well. I'd really like to visit Zagreb after seeing this, I honestly didn't know much about it before. Sub no. 966 here.
Thanks for watching and subscribing. Yes I use Google Earth, it is a great tool. Zagreb is really underrated city, well worth the visit. They also have an amazing Christmas market.
wonderful video! Thank you! Do you do personalized tours in Zagreb? Only for two people at the end of March 2023
This was great, thank you so much! I'm just doing research on where to go in Zagreb as we're only there for a short time and you've made this so easy for me to figure out. I do have one question, I found a viewpoint bar called Zagreb 360 where they have cocktails/drinks and beautiful views of Zagreb, it's right near the main square. When I went to the website it said temporarily closed, do you know anything about it, if it's now permanently closed? Thanks again for an amazing video
Thanks 🤗 Happy you find it useful. Umfortunately I believe you are right and Zagreb 360 is closed. There is no realible info about the future of that place.
@@rokgoesaround Thank you so much for replying, it's much appreciated. I can't wait to visit in August, Croatia looks so beautiful. I'll be checking out more of your videos XOX
Hi Rok, its me again, i habe another question.. is one day enough to explore zagreb city?
Can you also please send me details, the best and easiest, and cheapest way to go to Plitvice national park. How far is this from Zagreb Town? Thanks so much. ❤️🙏
Yes, you can see most of main attractions in one day. Bus from Zagreb to Plitivce takes about 2.5 hours and is the cheapest option. But considering you have a child, maybe renting a car would be a good option. National park Plitivice is in the forest and if you need to buy something, or get somewhere it might be a problem if you use only public transport.
Hi rok do you think 1 full day in zagreb you could more or less see everything worthwhile? like 8 am to 9pm
Yes I think you can 🤗
🎀
Don't forget to go to surounding villages and eat some domestic food.
I dont believe that Zagreb's Cathedral is most important church in Croatia....I believe all of them are...
Catholic Cathedral of Saint Duje in Split is oldest Catholic Cathedral in the world,just the gates itself are 900 years old...made by Croatian 'zanatlija'(artisan)...
Then you have Catholic Church of Saint Mauro in Poreć,Saint Vid in Rijeka,etc...
Don’t forget Marija Bistrica
