Ready
to experience the magic of Zagreb’s Christmas like never before? Stick around,
and let’s dive in!
LEDENI PARK
As the
night falls over Zagreb in December, a magical transformation takes place, and
we begin our journey leaving behind the grand Zagreb Glavni Kolodvor -
the main train station, wrapped in soft golden lights. The air is crisp, and
the atmosphere is alive with the sounds of Christmas. In the distance, we catch
our first glimpse of Ledeni Park, Zagreb’s iconic outdoor ice rink.
Twinkling fairy lights guide our path as we move closer, revealing a dazzling,
long ice track that winds gracefully around the square like a glistening ribbon
of holiday cheer.
We walk
slowly, taking in the sights and sounds of this winter wonderland. Families
laugh as they glide across the ice, and couples hold hands, their skates
carving patterns in the rink. The scene is framed by elegant architecture,
glowing lights, and the backdrop of Zagreb’s historic charm.
Now, we
make our way to a raised platform - a perfect vantage point to admire the
bustling square. Here, cozy wooden stalls offer local treats, and the scent of
warm fritule, Croatia’s beloved Christmas doughnuts, wafts through the
air. These tiny, golden bites, sprinkled with powdered sugar or drizzled with
chocolate, are a must-try. Pair them with a steaming cup of mulled wine,
or “kuhano vino,” infused with cinnamon, cloves, and orange zest. There’s also
hot cocoa and herbal teas for those seeking non-alcoholic delights.
From this
platform, the view is simply enchanting. Below, the ice rink stretches
endlessly, surrounded by more glowing stalls, inviting laughter, and the hum of
holiday tunes. The square, known as King Tomislav Square, is a historic
gem. It’s named after Croatia’s first king and adorned with the striking Art
Pavilion - a masterpiece of late 19th-century architecture. Its
golden-yellow façade gleams against the night sky, adding a regal touch to the
festive setting.
The Art
Pavilion, a symbol of cultural heritage, has hosted countless exhibitions over
the years, and its presence here is a reminder of Zagreb’s blend of tradition
and modernity. This square has always been a meeting place, but during the
Christmas season, it truly comes alive, capturing the hearts of both locals and
visitors.
Descending
from the platform, we stroll along rows of wooden houses, each beautifully
uniform and modern in design. Clear signs on the stalls make it easy to spot
where you can find Christmas specialties - whether it’s hearty Croatian
sausages, sweet pastries, or festive drinks. The uniformity of the houses gives
a sense of cohesion, yet each one offers a unique flavor of the holiday spirit.

ZRINJEVAC PARK
As
we leave behind the charm of Strossmayer Park, we make our way to the next
highlight of Zagreb’s Advent celebrations: the stunning Zrinjevac
Park. Known for its majestic tree-lined pathways and timeless
elegance, Zrinjevac transforms into a magical Christmas setting each December,
capturing the hearts of visitors and locals alike.
The
moment you step into Zrinjevac, you’ll notice how the atmosphere shifts yet
again. The Christmas
stalls here maintain a uniform shape and color, blending
harmoniously with the park’s historic surroundings, but they carry a distinct design
compared to those in the previous parks. Each stall is adorned with subtle
festive touches, offering a perfect mix of tradition and modernity.
This
is the ideal place to pick up a Christmas memento. We couldn’t resist and found
a beautiful ornament to take home - a small token to hang on our tree,
reminding us of the magical moments we’ve shared here in Zagreb. The stalls
also cater to children with delightful candies and sweet treats, while the ones closer to
the park’s center invite you to indulge in local food and seasonal delicacies.
From roasted chestnuts to savory štrukli, every bite is a taste of Croatia’s
rich culinary heritage.
Zrinjevac
Park stands out for two distinctive features. First is its musical stage,
a centerpiece of the park’s Christmas celebrations. Live performances of
carols, jazz, and classical pieces add to the enchanting ambiance, filling the
air with melodies that perfectly complement the season. To help you plan your
visit, we’ve included a link to the official Advent program in the description
tab below: https://www.adventzagreb.hr/en/.
The
second highlight is the illuminated decorations scattered throughout the
park. These unique displays are a feast for the eyes, with shapes ranging from
an elegant harp to a glowing piano, and more surprises as you walk around. Each
installation is carefully placed to invite exploration and admiration, adding
an artistic flair to the festive vibe.
While we soak in the beauty of Zrinjevac, let’s take a moment to appreciate its history. Officially known as Nikola Šubić Zrinski Square, this park is one of Zagreb’s oldest and most beloved green spaces. It was established in the late 19th century as part of the city’s Green Horseshoe, a series of interconnected parks and squares that form the heart of Zagreb’s urban design. The fountains, pathways, and lush plane trees here have witnessed generations of gatherings, and during Christmas, Zrinjevac truly shines as a timeless cultural hub.
SANTA TRAM
This year, the Zagreb Electric Tram will further enrich Zagreb's Advent offer with unique rides for our youngest citizens.
In order to ensure a true winter fairy tale experience, the recognizable Merry Christmas Tram is once again being put into service. Due to extremely high demand, there will be two Merry Christmas Trams on the streets of Zagreb this Advent, which will spread the holiday spirit through our city with attractive rides.
Santa Claus, fairies and elves will welcome our youngest passengers and their companions in a tourist tram from 1924, which is a reminder of the rich transportation tradition, as well as in a modern low-floor tram NT 2300. The 30-minute ride includes a play with Santa Claus and his helpers, and sweets will also be distributed to our youngest citizens and visitors.
The Merry
Christmas Trams will be in service from Sunday, December 1, to Tuesday, January
7. During this period, trams will run every 15 minutes, from Monday to Thursday
from 4 to 7 p.m., on Fridays from 12 to 4 p.m., and on Saturdays and Sundays
from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. . Trams will depart from the corner of Praška Street and
Trg bana Josip Jelačića, where there will be a ticket booth, and will run along
the route from Trg bana Josip Jelačića, Ilica to Ulice Republike Austrije,
Jukićeva and Mihanovićeva via Zrinjevac back to the starting station . The
ticket price is 5 euros .
JOSIP JELACIC
SQUARE
Welcome to Ban
Jelačić Square, the heart of Zagreb and one of the most iconic spots in the
city! All roads seem to lead here, and that’s no coincidence. This vibrant
square is where locals and visitors converge, especially during the Christmas
season when it transforms into a magical holiday hub.
We
suggested following our route from the ice skating rink to arrive here, but
rest assured - this is far from the end of our journey. It’s incredibly easy to
reach this square since many tram lines stop here. However, in December, some
schedules may change due to the festive events. How did we figure that out?
Well, we heard the tram driver announce something in Croatian just before
reaching the square. Not understanding the language completely, we noticed many
passengers getting off, so we did too! It’s all part of the adventure and charm
of exploring Zagreb during Advent.
As we step
into the square, you’ll notice the lively atmosphere created by the rows
of food and drink stalls, each one beautifully decorated and offering festive
treats. From sizzling sausages and traditional Croatian dishes to mulled wine
and sweet pastries, the aromas alone are enough to draw you in. Surrounding
these stalls are both natural evergreen trees and those adorned with dazzling
Christmas lights and ornaments, creating a stunning blend of nature and holiday
spirit.
The square
offers countless photo opportunities, and it’s wonderful to see people
of all ages embracing the festive spirit. Whether it’s posing in front of a
glowing tree, capturing the lively scenes of the market, or simply enjoying the
historic charm of the square, there’s no shortage of memories to be made here.
Speaking of
history, let’s take a closer look at the story of Ban Jelačić Square as
we continue to explore its Christmas beauty.
The square
is named after Josip Jelačić, a 19th-century Croatian nobleman and
military leader. His statue, proudly standing at the center of the square,
commemorates his role in Croatian history. Born in 1801, Jelačić became a key
figure during turbulent times, known for uniting Croatian territories and
defending the country’s autonomy. His statue, originally erected in 1866, faced
the challenges of political changes - it was removed in 1947 during Yugoslav
rule and returned to the square in 1990 after Croatia gained independence.
The square
itself dates back to the 17th century, evolving from a marketplace to
the bustling hub we see today. Over the years, it has witnessed countless
historic events, from political rallies to cultural celebrations. During
Advent, it takes on a new identity, becoming a place of joy, community, and
festive wonder.
Surrounding
the square, you’ll find historic Croatian cafes and shops, adding to its
charm. These cafes have been a gathering place for locals for decades, where
people come to sip coffee, share stories, and watch the world go by. If you
have time, take a moment to step into one of these timeless establishments.
They offer a perfect blend of nostalgia and Croatian hospitality.
As we
wander further, take note of the stalls lining the square, each offering
unique items that make perfect gifts or souvenirs. From handcrafted ornaments
and jewelry to locally made chocolates and wine, there’s something for
everyone. The prices are clearly marked, making it easy to find treasures
within your budget.
And don’t
forget to try some traditional Christmas delicacies! Warm yourself with a glass
of kuhano vino, Croatia’s take on mulled wine, or treat yourself to fritule,
those bite-sized doughnuts we’ve mentioned before. The food here isn’t just
delicious - it’s a cultural experience, offering a taste of Croatia’s rich
culinary traditions.
While Ban
Jelačić Square is undoubtedly a highlight of Zagreb’s Advent celebration, it’s
just one piece of the puzzle. From here, our tour will continue to the Upper
Town, where even more surprises await. Think twinkling lights, historic
streets, and hidden gems that bring a sense of wonder and discovery to your
holiday adventure.
We
encourage you to follow the full sequence of our tour, as each stop reveals a
unique aspect of Zagreb’s Christmas charm. Whether it’s the ice skating rink,
the Santa Tram, or the historic cafes, every moment contributes to the magic of
this festive city.
But don’t let your exploration stop here in the main square - there’s so much more to discover just beyond its lively center! Whichever direction you choose, whether left or right, you’ll find yourself immersed in even more festive magic.
You can take a stroll along the charming, pedestrianized Ul.
Pavla Radića, a street that comes alive at night with the warm glow of lights
and the bustling energy of holiday shoppers and visitors. This path leads us
toward the Old Town, where history and tradition blend seamlessly with the
Christmas spirit.
As we continue along this route, the street itself invites exploration, with its quaint shops, cozy cafes, and occasional glimpses of Zagreb’s rich architectural heritage. Eventually, this path will guide us to the Zagreb City Museum, which has been beautifully transformed for the season, hosting festive events and displays that add another layer of enchantment to your journey.
You can then return back
at the central square, Ban Jelačić Square, because it’s simply the most
convenient starting point for organizing your walking tour of Zagreb’s
Christmas magic. It’s not just the heart of the city geographically - it’s also
where the festive energy truly converges.
As we’ve mentioned, there’s so much more to discover beyond the main square itself. For our next stop, we’ll take a stroll to the right side, heading toward European Square.
European
Square is another highlight of Zagreb’s Advent celebrations, and it offers a
more intimate setting while still brimming with holiday spirit. You’ll find
traditional Christmas stalls here, similar in style to those at Ban Jelačić
Square but with their own unique selection of festive treats and gifts. From
warm pastries to handcrafted ornaments, it’s a perfect spot to pick up
something special for yourself or your loved ones.
Here’s a
little tip that might come in handy: Just behind the row of Christmas stalls,
there’s a public toilet, open 24 hours a day! After indulging in all that warm
mulled wine or delicious local specialties, this could be a very welcome stop
on your tour.
While
you’re in the area, don’t miss the chance to take in the proximity of one of
Zagreb’s most iconic landmarks - the Cathedral of Zagreb. At the time we visited, the cathedral was undergoing restoration, but it remains an
awe-inspiring sight. Its twin spires, though partially scaffolded, still rise
high above the city, a testament to its historic and architectural
significance.
The Cathedral of Zagreb, also known as the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is not just a place of worship but a symbol of Croatia’s resilience. It has weathered earthquakes, wars, and centuries of history, and its ongoing restoration ensures it will continue to inspire generations to come.
OLD TOWN
We begin our
journey at the Kapela Kamenita Vrata, or the Chapel of the
Stone Gate, one of Zagreb’s most sacred and historic landmarks.
This charming chapel is tucked within the Old Town, and its quiet,
reverent atmosphere invites visitors to pause and reflect.
We’re leaving the
Zagrebačka Uspinjača, Zagreb’s famous funicular, behind us - a short but
delightful ride that takes you up to the Upper Town in just over a minute.
Known as one of the shortest funiculars in the world, it’s a unique and
convenient way to ascend the hill while enjoying a bit of Zagreb’s charm.
Operating since 1890, it’s not just a mode of transportation but also a piece
of the city’s history.
If you’re looking
for a fun and easy way to experience the transition from the bustling Lower
Town to the historic Upper Town, the funicular is definitely worth trying!
We then move inside
the courtyard of Klovićevi Dvori Gallery, a space that has been beautifully
transformed into a festive ballroom for the holiday season. The air is filled
with the sound of both traditional Croatian songs and international Christmas
classics, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. As you can see in our included video, people are
dancing, laughing, and fully embracing the holiday spirit - an unforgettable
scene of joy and togetherness.
The Klovićevi
Dvori Gallery itself is one of Zagreb’s most prominent cultural institutions,
housed in a historic 17th-century Jesuit monastery. Throughout the year, it
hosts a wide array of art exhibitions, showcasing works from Croatian and
international artists alike. This gallery has earned its reputation as a hub
for creativity and culture, drawing visitors with its rich history and
inspiring exhibits.
During Advent,
the gallery takes on a new life, blending its artistic heritage with the magic
of the season. Whether you’re here to enjoy the festive ballroom or explore its
renowned exhibitions, this spot offers a unique and memorable experience for
all.
We’ve stepped
back outside to the Klovićevi Dvori Gallery’s panoramic promenade, offering one
of the best views in Zagreb. Even though it’s a bit foggy tonight, we can still
catch glimpses of the majestic Zagreb Cathedral, its spires rising high above
the city.
The cathedral, a
Gothic masterpiece, is the tallest building in Croatia and a true symbol of
Zagreb. Despite undergoing restoration, it remains an awe-inspiring sight,
standing as a testament to the city's history and resilience.
From here, you
can also see the rooftops and streets of Zagreb, beautifully lit for the
season, creating a magical atmosphere that’s perfect for photos or just soaking
in the festive charm.
But that’s not
all - this isn’t just a scenic stop. We’ll soon show you how to navigate to
this fantastic Advent area, so stay with us as our journey continues!
Here’s another
secret gem for you to discover during your Zagreb Advent exploration! If you’re
not in the mood to climb stairs to the Upper Town, there’s an easier and far
more charming alternative. Head over to the entrance of the historic Hotel
Jägerhorn, just a few meters to the left of the main square.
As you step into
its cozy courtyard, you’ll find a delightful collection of shops offering
everything from stylish clothing to warm drinks and festive treats. It’s a
quiet escape from the hustle and bustle of the square, perfect for those
looking to take a break and soak in a different side of Zagreb’s charm.
Naturally, if you plan to sit outside in the courtyard to enjoy a coffee or
mulled wine, you’ll need to bundle up! When we visited, the temperature at
night hovered close to zero degrees, adding to the winter wonderland vibe.
Now, here’s an
extra tip: Before heading back to the main square, don’t miss the artistic
transformation on the steps leading up to the Upper Town, part of the
Okolo//Around project. This initiative brings art to unexpected corners of
Zagreb, turning ordinary spaces into extraordinary experiences.
Let’s expand on
Okolo//Around as we descend these very steps, back toward the glowing main
square via Ul. Pavla Radića. This project is a celebration of art and
creativity, designed to encourage both locals and visitors to explore Zagreb
with fresh eyes. These steps, in particular, have been reimagined with vibrant
artwork, subtle lighting, and playful designs that blend beautifully with the
festive decorations of the season.
As you walk down,
take your time to appreciate the small details - every corner seems to tell its
own story. The illuminated path ahead guides us back toward the lively streets
below, where holiday cheer fills the air.
This connection between the Old Town and the main square becomes even more magical during Advent, as the blend of history, art, and Christmas spirit truly makes Zagreb unforgettable. So, keep exploring, and don’t forget to look for these hidden gems along the way!
ESPLANADE HOTEL
We’ve arrived at
the Esplanade Hotel, an iconic and luxurious landmark in Zagreb that has fully
embraced the Advent festivities. Right outside, you’ll find a beautiful
illuminated sign that reads “Kiss me here” beneath a glowing arch. It’s the
perfect spot to create a cherished holiday memory - so grab your loved one,
take a selfie, and let this magical moment become part of your Zagreb story!
The Esplanade
Hotel itself has a rich history, dating back to 1925, when it was built to
accommodate passengers traveling on the luxurious Orient Express. Over the
years, it has become synonymous with elegance, hosting countless dignitaries,
celebrities, and travelers seeking its timeless charm.
During Advent,
the hotel participates in the celebrations with style. The stalls here are
different from the ones you’ll find elsewhere - they have a more refined and
elegant design, fitting for such a prestigious location. But don’t let that
intimidate you - the food and drink prices are still comparable to those at
other markets.
We couldn’t
resist sampling some local wine here. A quick tip: If you decide to sit and
enjoy your drink, don’t forget to return the glass to the appropriate stall
afterward - it’s a small but important gesture to keep the holiday spirit
running smoothly!
This hotel is
conveniently located right next to Ledeni Park, where we began our tour. If
you’d like to start your journey here instead, it’s easy to get to - just hop
on a tram and stop at the main train station, Glavni Kolodvor, which is only a
short walk away.
The Esplanade Hotel is not just a place to stay; it’s a destination that captures the elegance and history of Zagreb while fully immersing itself in the joyful Christmas atmosphere.
GRIC TUNNEL
We’re now walking
through the enchanting Grič Tunnel, a unique part of Zagreb’s Advent
celebrations. This tunnel, which you can only enter from the western side, is a
one-way walkway that leads you to the exit at Ulaz Radićeva. From there, it’s
just a short stroll back to the central square, making this a perfect detour
for your Christmas exploration.
Right in the
heart of the tunnel, you’ll find a beautifully decorated area, filled with
twinkling lights, ornaments, and Christmas-themed displays. It’s a magical
transformation that feels almost like stepping into a winter wonderland beneath
the city. Many visitors stop here to take photos, soaking in the unique
atmosphere that blends history and holiday cheer.
The Grič Tunnel
itself has a fascinating history. Built during World War II as a bomb shelter
and later repurposed for pedestrian use, it has become an integral part of
Zagreb’s urban landscape. Its transformation during Advent adds yet another
layer to its story, turning this historical space into a symbol of joy and
celebration.
As we near the exit at Radićeva Street, you’ll see how seamlessly this tunnel connects the Upper Town to the lively central square below.
CROATIAN NATIONAL
THEATRE
We’re now walking
to the magnificent Croatian National Theatre in Zagreb, a true architectural
gem that becomes even more enchanting during the Christmas season. The building
is beautifully illuminated, with lights highlighting its grand Baroque Revival
façade, giving it a fairytale-like appearance. Flanking the entrance are
oversized nutcracker figures, standing tall as if guarding this cultural
treasure. They add a whimsical holiday touch, making it a must-visit spot for
photos - especially at night when the lights bring the scene to life.
The theatre
itself, known locally as Hrvatsko Narodno Kazalište, has a rich history. It was
inaugurated in 1895 by Emperor Franz Joseph I and has since been a cornerstone
of Croatian culture, hosting countless opera, ballet, and drama performances.
Its distinctive yellow façade and elegant dome have made it one of the city’s
most recognizable landmarks.
The surrounding area is equally picturesque. The theatre sits at the heart of Republic of Croatia Square, a lush, green space that offers a peaceful escape during the day and a romantic atmosphere at night. Nearby, you’ll find the iconic Well of Life fountain, a masterpiece by renowned Croatian sculptor Ivan Meštrović.
ZAGREB CITY
MUSEUM
As we step
through the doors of the Zagreb City Museum, we’re greeted by a charming,
festively decorated courtyard. The space is alive with holiday spirit,
featuring beautifully adorned Christmas trees, games, and vintage toys that
capture the essence of the season.
In the center,
you’ll find cozy seating areas around barrels, perfect for enjoying a warm
drink from one of the nearby bars or stands. It’s a lively yet intimate
setting, blending the joy of Christmas with the museum's historical ambiance.
The Zagreb City Museum, housed in a former convent dating back to the 17th century, offers a deep dive into the city’s past. Its exhibits trace Zagreb’s development from its medieval roots to its modern-day vibrancy, making it a fascinating stop for history enthusiasts.
TESLA MONUMENT
AND DECORATIONS AROUND
Zagreb has so much more to offer, and we’re just scratching the surface! There’s no filler here - in fact, we had to carefully select what to include to give you the best possible experience. This city truly knows how to make Christmas feel special, with every corner bringing new surprises and festive delights.
We’re
heading toward Petar Preradović Square, commonly referred to as Flower Square.
As we walk, you’ll notice the lively café bars surrounding the square,
beautifully decorated and filled with people enjoying the season. The outdoor
seating areas are equipped with heaters to keep you warm, but don’t forget your
cozy winter layers - it’s still chilly out here!
Dominating the
square is the Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord, a beautiful
19th-century Orthodox church. Its distinctive façade, with golden accents and a
unique architectural style, makes it a striking feature of this area. The
church is a peaceful retreat amidst the holiday buzz, offering a moment of calm
reflection for visitors.
On the other side of the square, you’ll find the Centar Cvjetni, a modern shopping mall. It’s a convenient stop if you’re looking for last-minute gifts, local souvenirs, or simply want to warm up indoors. With a mix of high-end and casual stores, it’s a blend of contemporary shopping and Zagreb’s holiday spirit.
We soon reach a fascinating stop in Zagreb’s Advent
journey - the Nikola Tesla statue. This bronze sculpture pays tribute to the
legendary inventor and electrical pioneer, who was born in what is now Croatia.
Tesla’s contributions to science and technology have made him a global icon,
and this statue celebrates his extraordinary legacy.
As you admire it, look down and notice the striking
mural painted on the pavement at the intersection of Preradovićeva and
Masarykova Street. This vibrant piece of street art was created by the
world-famous artist Slaven Kosanović Lunar, known for his bold use of color and
playful designs. The mural adds a dynamic, modern touch to the area, blending
perfectly with the festive spirit of the city and creating a popular spot for
photos.
Now, if you continue walking, you’ll see something truly unique: ghost-like festive installations that seem to float. These ethereal decorations, made of sheer white fabric and softly illuminated from within, create a dreamlike atmosphere along the path. They sway gently with the breeze, their shapes hinting at figures from folklore or perhaps angels watching over the city during the holiday season.
These installations add a mystical quality to the festive streets, inviting you to slow down and take in their delicate beauty. It’s a perfect reminder of how Zagreb blends creativity and tradition in its Advent celebrations. Every corner of this city has something magical waiting to be discovered!
CITY CENTER AT
NIGHT
As our journey through Zagreb’s Advent celebrations comes to an end, let’s take a moment to recap everything we’ve explored. From the enchanting Ledeni Park with its ice-skating rink and magical lights to the Grič Tunnel and the historic charm of the old town, Zagreb has proven to be a city that truly knows how to celebrate Christmas.
We wandered
through festive streets, admired beautifully decorated squares like Petar
Preradović Square and Ban Jelačić Square, and experienced unique stops like the
Santa Tram, the courtyard of the Zagreb City Museum, and the elegant atmosphere
at the Esplanade Hotel. Along the way, we discovered hidden gems like the mural
by Slaven Kosanović Lunar, the glowing ghost-like decorations, and panoramic
views from the Klovićevi Dvori Gallery.
Zagreb’s Advent
isn’t just about decorations - it’s about an entire city coming alive with joy,
tradition, and creativity. Whether it’s the delicious food, warm drinks, unique
gifts, or simply the festive ambiance, there’s something here for everyone to
enjoy.
As we conclude,
we’re taking a final stroll through one of Zagreb’s other central streets.
While it might not be as lively as the main squares we’ve seen, it’s still
adorned with decorations that capture the magic of Advent. These quieter
corners of the city add their own charm, reminding us that the holiday spirit
truly spreads throughout Zagreb, even beyond the most popular spots.
