Zagreb, capital of the Republic of Croatia, is known for its diverse economy, historical museums, cultural events, sporting and governmental hub. It is located on the southern slopes of Medvednica Mountain along the banks of the Sava River. Culturally, it is a European city well worth visiting, with its numerous historical monuments, parks and medieval architecture. Its favourable geographic positioning in the Pannonian Basin gives the city instant access to Central Europe and the Adriatic coast. Maybe that's why, for many years, it has remained the economic gateway connecting central and Western Europe via the Adriatic Sea. Today, it is the only city in Croatia with a population of over one million. Yet, as the city advances into the new millennium, it has retained its old charisma and welcoming attitude towards foreign visitors.

Zagreb is vibrant. It is flat and thus perfect to walk or cycle. Zagreb is relatively small compared to other European capitals. And, it has lots of parks and even forests within the city limits. Zagreb's Upper town features some of the Zagreb top attractions: the Lotrscak tower, Stone gate (Kamenita vrata), St. Marc Church, Museum of Broken relationship, Stross promenade, the Mestrovic Atelier, the Klovicevi Dvori gallery. Cvjetni Trg (Flower’s Square) is called so due to few flower stalls you can find there. The square is also filled with cafes, bars, casual eateries, and a shopping mall. Zagreb Orthodox Cathedral built in 1865, and Oktogon, a covered passageway that connects Flower’s Square with Ilica.
