Breathe in peace at Park Maksimir

Escape the city's bustle in Zagreb's green lung, Park Maksimir. Explore this 18th-century garden, complete with its own lakes and zoo, or delight in a boat ride, a quiet walk, or a tranquil yoga session amidst nature's symphony.

Ascend the Lotrščak Tower

A relic of Zagreb's past, this imposing tower offers stellar views of the city. While currently being restored, don't miss out on the daily cannon fire at noon, a tradition that spans a century. Pair your visit with a ride on the charming funicular railway right across the street.

Marvel at the Cathedral of the Assumption of Mary

Gothic architecture shines in this two-spired spectacle that dominates Zagreb's skyline. Unfold centuries of history within its stone walls, and be charmed by the intricate detailing in its charming interior.

Stroll Down St. Mark’s Square

Featuring the iconic, colourful-tiled St. Mark's Church, this quaint square is a snapshot of the city's political and historical heart. Surrounded by the Croatian Parliament and other significant buildings, this place is also a favourite spot for open-air events.

Destination Essentials

From grand cultural festivals to peaceful city parks, Zagreb has something to offer throughout the year. However, the ideal time to visit this Croatian jewel is between April to September. During this period, the city is bathed in pleasant weather and basks in the glory of sunshine, elevating the splendour of its attractions.

While July and August make up for the peak tourist season with their warmest temperatures, May and June, with their ample showers, paint the city's landscapes in vibrant hues. However, if you fancy a quieter, less crowded exploration, embarking on your Croatian adventure in January, February, and March may be the perfectly cosy alternative. No matter when you choose to visit, Zagreb pledges a memorable getaway.
