Recommendations for Zagreb trip?
 
I am travelling in Nov'02 to Zagreb and would be grateful for any tips. What is worth seeing (museums, sites, etc.)? Do they have a good ballet/opera in Zagreb? Are any foreign languages are spoken by locals? Is the place safe?

Hi,<BR>Zagreb is a safe city. There is a lovely Opera house and , usually, a number of concerts and other cultural events. The city has many restaurants, cafes and hotels.<BR>Most people speak some English.<BR> Take an umbrella!

www.inyourpocket.com<BR>has a good guide on Zagreb which can be ordered by Internet or you can buy it when you get to Zagreb (20 Kuna = $US 2.7)<BR>Every two months new edition with all cultural and other events, plus places to stay, what to see, where to shop, where to eat, nightlife, surroundings etc... simply excellent.<BR>
