Maksimir Park
Park Maksimir
An English-style landscape park opened in 1794, with lakes, pavilions, and an oak forest, as well as the Zagreb Zoo.
Maksimir is one of the earliest public parks in Southeast Europe. It covers about 316 hectares and features five artificial lakes, viewing pavilions, a Swiss cottage, and centuries-old oak forests. It's the favorite spot for locals to stroll and jog. Inside the park is the Zagreb Zoo, which is good for families (paid admission). Across from the park is the Maksimir Stadium, home ground of the Dinamo football club. It's about a 15-minute ride by tram, and the park itself is free to enter.
