| Cultura |
Now officially over 900 years old, the city of Zagreb, Croatiaís capital, combines the vibrancy of a fledgling capital city in a newly-independent country with the same appreciation of the past, the rich history and cultural tradition of one of Europeís most distinguished metropolises. Though informally known as the Croat capital since the mid 1500ís, Zagrebís official recognition as capital arrived in 1991 on June 25 when Croatian Independence from Yugoslavia was declared. |
| Sights |
As we plan our trip to Croatia this spring, we are excited to be in the capital city and explore some of the following highlights in the Upper Town (Gornji Grad) and Lower Town (Donji Grad). Check out our ‘Zagreb Walking Tour‘ that covers most of these sights. |
| Shopping |
Shopping in Zagreb is easy to navigate. Walk west on Ilica, Zagreb's main street (see a map) and you'll pass shop after shop. Veer onto the side streets for even more choices. Nearly all European chains are present and accounted for and there are also some smaller and more interesting boutiques. Hours are long, generally running from 8 or 9am to 7 or 7. 30pm without a lunch break from Monday to Saturday. Stores accept credit cards but have some kuna handy for the markets. |
| Food and drink |
The prices of food and drinks differ greatly between supermarkets and the restaurants. Obviously, it is cheaper to buy food at the supermarkets like Diona or Konzum. The prices for basic food staples are: one liter of Pan Beer in a plastic bottle costs 12 kunas; 450 grams of chicken breasts costs 26 kunas; one loaf of bread costs 7 kunas; 1 liter of milk costs 6 kunas; 1. 75 liters of milk costs 10 kunas; and a carton of twelve eggs costs 10 kunas. |
