Zagreb

I do not think that I have ever seen a city with such a distinctive transition between historical neighbourhoods. At the top of the hill is the old town with medieval cobble stone streets, squares, and churches. South is something out of the city beautiful movement with a semi grid of streets, monumental buildings, parks, fountains, and a beautiful train station. Then right across the tracks is a very "modern" area with ugly concrete buildings, ridiculously wide roads with boulevards, and to much useless open space.

Zagreb is great for strolling around. The parks, cafes, bars, and restaurants keep you interested. There is a nice market in the centre of town. I also got some history on the development of the city at the Zagreb City Museum. However, there is nothing in the city that really stands out. One day was enough.
