Our tour begins in front of the imposing Croatian National Theatre, specifically at the "Well of Life," a sculpture by the renowned Croatian sculptor Ivan Meštrović. After meeting the guide, we start exploring Republic of Croatia Square, the cultural heart of Zagreb, surrounded by landmarks like the University building, the Academy of Music, and the Museum of Arts and Crafts.

After learning about the square's history and significance, we head to the statue of Nikola Tesla, where we’ll hear fascinating details about his life and groundbreaking contributions. Next, we visit Flower Square (officially Petar Preradović Square), a favorite gathering spot for locals, known for its vibrant flower stands and lively cafés.

To enhance our experience, we take a ride on the world’s shortest funicular (ticket included), leading us to the historical Upper Town. The ride brings us to Lotrščak Tower, a medieval defensive tower, where we'll hear the story of the Grič cannon, which fires daily at noon.

Our walk continues through Ćirilometodska Street to St. Mark’s Square, the historic center of Croatian governance. Here, we see the Croatian Parliament, the Government building, and the iconic St. Mark's Church, famous for its colorful roof depicting Croatia’s historical coats of arms. The guide will provide insight into the significance of these institutions.

Next, we visit the city's first pharmacy and pass through the mystical Stone Gate, the only preserved entrance to the old town, where many light candles in front of the painting of the Virgin Mary, Zagreb's patron saint. From there, we walk to the "Bloody Bridge," a historic conflict site between Kaptol and Gradec, before arriving in the vibrant Tkalčićeva Street, lined with cafés, restaurants, and shops.

We continue to Dolac, Zagreb's most famous market, where you can experience the authentic local flavors and fresh products. Overlooking the market, we’ll see the majestic Zagreb Cathedral, a symbol of the city’s religious and historical heritage. We’ll explore its Gothic architecture and learn about its restoration after the recent earthquake.

Our final stops include a visit to the model of old Zagreb, where we'll gain a deeper understanding of the city's development, before concluding at Ban Jelačić Square, Zagreb's main square and central meeting point.
