Zagreb Croatia 🇭🇷 City Tour - Top Things to See & Do | 197 Countries, 3 Kids

Join us as we visit Zagreb - the capital of Croatia on the slopes of Medvednica Hill!
Zagreb is the political, commercial and cultural heart of Croatia with over 900 years of rich history. One of the oldest cities in Central Europe, Zagreb is nestled between the mountain of Medvednica and the river Sava. Even though this is a modern city, it is not without it’s small-town charm. Its enticing mixture of medieval towers, palaces, open-air markets, and ancient cathedrals gives it a unique look seldom found in any other parts of the world!
There are many different kinds of museums; history, education, relationships and even a museum of mushrooms! We visited a few including the Museum of Broken Relationships which is guaranteed to make you laugh ... and cry. It is considered one of the most innovative museums in all of Europe.
Here is an interesting story about Zagreb - the modern city is uniquely separated into 2 sections - Upper Town (Gornji Grad) and Lower Town (Donji Grad).
The Upper Town is the most interesting and ancient part of the city, being home to the Presidential Palace, the iconic St Mark’s Church, the Croatian parliament, and countless museums and galleries. This area seems to be a piece of the past with its cobbled streets lit by gas lamps. The Lower Town offers numerous coffee shops, restaurants, theatres, parks, wide avenues and grand neo-classical buildings. This leafy part of the town is perfect for sampling a delicious Croatian dish, having lunch at a cafe or for some upmarket shopping!
During our stay we also visited the Zagreb Cathedral which was built in the 8th century, the underground tunnels and the world's smallest Funicular which connects the lower town to the upper town. The funicular has been running since 1890!
Since we arrived the day before their independence day we saw many people in the military preparing for their ceremonies. The next day we returned to St Mark’s square and joined in the festivities.
We had such a lovely time here in Zagreb.
Enjoy the video!

This is my home town. That is why I checked out your video. However the thing I loved the most is that you from time to time allowed your kids to say few words while doing the sightseeing! We are talking about the future city guides-)))

[@jamalsikder538]

Nice Video

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

Thanks!

[@AccedTCM]

I think one of the interesting things that could be seen at 4:00 is that you could hear a shot in the background. Considering there is no clock in the video, but the shot was the Grič cannon, which shoots every day at noon, so alot of citizens of Zagreb know what hour it is when they hear the cannon shot.

[@GrowingUpWithoutBorders]

You would know more than me for the language. Glad you like the video.

[@matejsb4720]

Croatian language has three dialects: Shtokavian, Chakavian and Kajkavian. The last one is kinda special because even we sometimes don't understand each others. Kajkavian is "old Croatian" or how Croatian spoke in the past, so few hundrends years ago. And yes, Slovenian language is based on Kajkavian dialect.

[@tihomirrasperic]

@@matejsb4720 But Slovenian language is based on Austrian German mixed with Croatian words
