The Well of Life
Meeting point is at one of the most beautiful squares in Zagreb. The area is harmonious and full of significant monuments, buildings and architectural achievements of different eras and styles. Symbolically, our tour begins with the sculpture Well of Life (1905), an Art Noveau masterpiece made by the famous Croatian sculptor Ivan Meštrović. The sculpture represents the circle of life and mankind's eternal thirst for joy.
Teatro Nacional De Croacia
The representative neo-baroque building of the Croatian National Theatre is the seat of both opera and ballet. It was opened in 1895 by Emperor Franz Joseph I von Habsburg himself. Theatre and its neighborhood represent the hub of Zagreb's social life. In addition, the square is the center of the intellectual life. It is home to the University of Zagreb Headquarters, museums, academies, and institutes.
Nikola Tesla Statue
By the monument to one of the world's greatest minds and inventors, born and raised in Croatia, we'll hear the story of Nikola Tesla. As an introvert, he would probably be dissapointed with his current position in the middle of popular Špica - the epicenter of Zagreb's social life. Its lively streets are a stage and catwalk where it's of utmost importance to see and be seen. Full of interesting sacral and civil architecture, it also hosts a small flower market, which is why it is nicknamed Flower Square (Cvjetni Trg).
