What You Will Do
Guiding for me is a passion, and if you are curious to learn about our culture, history and people join me on my walks.
As the world entered the Covid lockdown, in March and in December 2020 Zagreb in Croatia was hit by two strong earthquakes. This is way most of the city center buildings are hidden under scaffolds.
We can still walk around and tell the story of the the people, country and the city that goes back 1000 years ago.

Historically the Kaptol with the cathedral were higher in hierarchy, although not above the sea level. Today, the Upper Town's landmarks beat the rhythm of the political life of the whole country (Republic of Croatia). Where do the Middle Ages hide here?

The saint patron of the Upper Town is not St. Mark, but the main medieval square and the main community church of the Upper Town are called after another saint - St. Mark. What kind of community lived here? Who are the people who live here now?

Will we use it or not - depends on your fitness level and willingness to walk down the hill or not. The choice you have: to cut it short (and use the shortest funicular in the world, the cost is 5 Kunas per person in 2021) or walk down the steep stairs through the picturesque hidden park
