TRAKOŠĆAN
When it comes to Trakošćan, all the romanticized stereotypes about castles are true: constructed above the lake and surrounded by thick forest, this castle stands in mystery and waits for you to discover all its stories. There is a museum on four floors, with a permanent exhibition which contains historical items and tells a story of his owner, a count who spared no expense - to the point of bankruptcy - to rebuilt a castle with neo-gothic elements, and created an artificial lake, a wooded park and romantic gardens. As you could already conclude, this is a must-see for all the lovers of history and everyone passionate about myths and legends!
VARAŽDIN
Varaždin, a city throw back in time, is also known as the ''city of baroque'' and former capital of Croatia. You can visit the most important monument in Varaždin – the Old Town, which hosts the Varaždin City Museum since 1925 and is UNESCO protected site. Afterwards, you can decide weather you want to relax and take a walk through the picturesque city streets or to visit the famous city cemetery and admire garden architecture. Whatever you choose, this gorgeous place and its warm, welcoming citizens will charm you and make you want to visit again.
