Season’s Greetings from Zagreb,
and its amazing Christmas Markets,
Voted Europe’s Best in both 2015 & 2016
We went earlier this month for a day trip,
and had a city tour, where we saw
Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
and St. Mark’s Church
We enjoyed it so much that we decided to go back,
for Christmas eve-eve and eve 😉
It’s a beautifully decorated city,
and in just about every corner there’s a market.
It’s full of music, food, gifts and drinks
The 5 star hotel, Esplanade, wasn’t too shabby to spend the holiday either.
I regret not booking a massage at their spa,
or taking a recoup from the winter chills in their sauna.
But I did relax on one of their cute chairs.. ha ha
Esplanade is in the heart of the city, walking distance from all the main attractions.
It’s pretty cheap too, for a 5 star hotel. Thanks to the Kuna (Croatian Currency).
The hotel’s pictures match those on booking.com.
And the only disappointing factor about Esplanade, in my opinion, was being denied to eat:
they didn’t have enough space for their guests for lunch/dinner at their restaurant.
This left us hungry and looking for food elsewhere.
At least, for next time, we’ll know to make reservations 😉
Hope you had a fabulous holiday!
I’ve been browsing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all
webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will
be much more useful than ever before.
The pictures are so beautiful. May have to stay a little longer whem mom and i come to check out a few of these places you and Isaias have visited.
I have always loved reading about the Christmas markets in Europe. We now have them in Toronto. I can hardly wait to visit some European markets.
Hey Anne,
That’s awesome. I want to visit Toronto one day 🙂
Croatia looks beautiful. I will have to put this location on my places of things to see and do. I have a lot of friends from Zagreb and they’d be happy to know I’m planning to go there….
That’s awesome. Have fun 🙂
