If you’re after a day-trip destination, we know just the place. Located 35 miles away, Zagreb is worth the drive. Among the first stops you make here ought to be Jarun, Zagreb Zoo and Arena Zagreb. Locals will also probably point you in the direction of Karlovac, 45 miles away. If you only see one thing here, make sure it’s Museum of Croatian War of Independence. (But we’re also big fans of Katzler Pavilion and Holy Trinity Church and Franciscan Monastery.)
