Everyone thinks of Croatia as a destination for a summer holiday, but its capital Zagreb is an exciting city to visit both in summer and in winter. Equipped with the charm of old Europe that we normally associate with cities such as Budapest and Vienna, Zagreb is at the same time a young and modern city, with an incredible variety of museums and galleries of contemporary art, cultural events, clubs and live music venues. The unsuspected Zagreb has won the European Best Destinations Best Christmas Market award for two consecutive years. Zagreb is the ideal destination to spend an out of season city break. Far from the chaos of the most classic European capitals, in fact, an evening stroll through the narrow streets of Gornji Grad, the charming Upper Town illuminated only by the warm light of the street lamps, is enough to fall in love with it at a glance. The elegant historic cafés gathered around the central Ban Jelačić square, the lively local market in Dolac on Saturday mornings and walks in the Zrinjevac park are just some of the good ideas to start an unforgettable holiday.
