From Glavni Kolodvor, Croatia’s main train station in Zagreb, you can ride the rails to nearly anywhere in the country or destinations in the rest of Europe. If you’re arriving in Zagreb by train, chances are you’ll get off at Glavni Kolodvor, located just next to Trg Kralja Tomislava (King Tomislav Square) and the glorious Regent Hotel.
One of Zagreb’s main streetcar stops is also located in front of Glavni Kolodvor. From here, you can catch a tram to just about anywhere in the city.

At the convergence of the Slunjčica and Korana rivers lies the sleepy village of Rastoke, known for the still-functioning grain mills dating back to the 18th century. You can still buy a hearty loaf of traditional corn bread at one of the mills.
The village of Rastoke is part of the municipality of Slunj in the Lika region, where some of the heaviest fighting of the Homeland War took place in the early 1990’s. Slowly but surely the area is recovering from devastation, and tourism is on the rise. Rastoke is now so peaceful and idyllic that you’d never believe any fighting took place here.
