Top 10 Things to do Good for Couples in Zagreb, Central Croatia
Zagreb got its start as two medieval fortress towns atop hills overlooking the Sava River, and was reborn in the Baroque period as center of business, perfectly located on routes connecting Central Europe to the Adriatic Sea. These days, Zagreb is the heart of contemporary Croatia’s culture, art, sports, and academics, but its history is not forgotten. The unique blend of medieval towers, 19th century palaces, open-air markets, and ancient cathedrals, make Zagreb the perfect city to explore.

A great place to get fantastic views over the city, Lotrscak tower is very interesting and I would definitely recommend a visit when in Zagreb, try and get there at 12pm when they fire the cannon also it's great to hear all the church bells going off at this time. Nice friendly staff also.

This centrally located theater seats only 850 people.
Reviewed By planetogra - Tewantin, Australia
This imposing building sits in the 'Green Horseshoe' area in the centre of Tito Square. The Croatian National Theatre ( Hrvatsko Narodno Kazaliste or HNK ) was built by architects Herman Helmer & Ferdinand Fellner under the Habsburg Empire & inaugurated in 1895. There are 5 theatres to encompass the wide variety of theatrical performances which attract a wide audience. The surrounding area used to be all swampland. HNK is a majestic edifice & its bright yellow ochre colour certainly ensures it stands out.

What a lovely park. There's plenty of green space to have a picnic, play with your pup, do yoga, etc., and trails to stroll along or run on. Maksimir is an ideal place to get outdoors while staying in the city.

Magnificent set up on the hill above the city. Majestic, beautiful, even though one tower is shrouded with scaffolding. Walking inside we were overwhelmed by the peaceful serenity, beauty of the architecture, the many glorious stained glass windows, the statues and altar. We lit candles for recently departed dear friends and their grieving families and felt an extra special peace and comfort as we walked away. Truly a very special place to visit. So good for the soul to find such peace in today's world ...

Durante l’avvento di Zagabria, in questa grande piazza c’è una bellissima pista di pattinaggio. Ci siamo divertiti tantissimo, adatta anche a chi non sa pattinare bene. During Zagreb’s Advent, there is a wonderful ice-skating track on this square. We had a lot of fun, and it’s good also for those that can’t skate so well.

Because of its extensive green park, flower beds, trees, fountains & proximity to Jelicic Square in the centre of Zagreb, many locals can be seen simply enjoying this space. The Meteorological Pole, The First Fountain & the wrought iron Bandstand are all features within its green borders. Zrinjevic is the northern square in Lenuci's Green Horseshoe, & is an ideal starting point for a walk to take in beautiful parks, grand buidings, statues & much more.
