Set aside all the fancy titles (and we do love our fancy titles) of Zagreb as the best Christmas destination in Europe this year, and what have we got? Well, this:
Every day is a good day for dancing at Advent at Europe square Winter wonderland selfies are a must Not a single tree was left undecorated Fuliranje brought the tastes and sounds from 14 capitals of the world to one street in Zagreb Art Pavilion shines brightest during Advent No one can resist trying the colorful Ice Park There are Santas on every corner We’re still waiting for the real snow, but in the meantime we make do Giant soap bubbles cover the streets on weekends We take fun very seriously We’re all celebrating Christmas together You can dance under a thousand glimmering hearts Every street bursts with romantic opportunities You don’t need ice to chill on Advent (is something Arnie as Mr. Freeze would say) Zrinjevac park might be the most magial place you’ll see this year Even the mean old Krampus can’t resist some mulled wine Folklore flashmobs take you to times long gone The skyline is filled with lights everywhere you go Choirs, choirs everwhere You get a hug from a polar bear Photos by: Sanjin Kastelan
