Samobor
A Baroque town 20 kilometers west of Zagreb, famous for the custard cake "kremšnita" and its old riverside town.
Samobor is the favorite weekend getaway for Zagreb residents. The town center is King Tomislav Square, surrounded by pastel Baroque houses and a small river. Its signature treat is Samobor cream cake (kremšnita), with layers of flaky pastry and thick custard cream. The town is also known for its mustard and the herbal liqueur Biltali. You can follow a trail up to the ruins of the old castle for views over the town. Buses from Zagreb's bus station take about 30 minutes, with frequent departures.
