mobility
Dynamic cardsTransportation
Zagreb has a well developed and efficient public transport system consisting of trains, trams, buses and a funicular. The tram network (Line map day, Line timetables day, Line map night, Timetables night including buses, link broken at the time, all links only in Croatian) is in operation 24 hours a day - from 4:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Daily lines (Tram lines 1-9, 11-15 and 17), from 00:00 a.m. to 04:00 a.m. take over 4 Night lines (Tram lines 31-34), which cover most of the daily line network with a reduced frequency (about every 30 to 40 minutes). Sometimes buses replace trams on night lines. Tram lines 1, 3 and 8 do not run on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. At almost every stop there is an overview map of the tram lines, if you know the way to the next tram stop, you can easily find the shortest route to your destination from there.
The buses have 113 day lines and 4 night lines, but unfortunately no overall line network plan, instead individual network plans for each terminus (List in Croatian, the timetables only give the departure times at the two terminal stops, there is no information about the travel times between the stops). Since autumn 2014, a map of the stops based on Google Maps has been included on the individual bus routes' pages. The buses of the municipal transport company ZET cover the area of Zagreb outside the city center as well as some neighboring villages that are administratively part of the Zagreb district. The buses use the same ticket system as the trams. In contrast to the tram stops, many bus stops lack any information, often not even the name of the stop and the lines running there are not recognizable.
A historic funicular (uspinjača in Croatian), one of the steepest and shortest in the world, connects the lower and upper towns every 10 minutes. The funicular uses the same ticket system as trams and buses, but there is also a single trip at a significantly lower price (4 Kn, around € 0.50) and the option of an immediate journey without waiting (20 Kuna one-time per special trip, around 2.70 €, in addition to normal tickets for all passengers).
A tourist train (turistički vlak) the transport company ZET does not run on rails through the lower town (donji grad). The start and end point is the main square Try bana Josipa Jelačića near the tourist information office. The train departs every half hour from 10:00 to 19:00 every day. The ride has been free since autumn 2014.
The price for a one-zone ticket, valid for 1.5 hours in one direction for the entire area of the city of Zagreb, has been 10 kuna (about 1.30 euros) since the price reduction on October 1st, 2013, from 00: 12 a.m. to 4 a.m. 15 kuna (about 2 euros), the distinction between a special electronic rechargeable ticket (E-vrijednosna karta), purchases outside the means of transport and from the driver are no longer available. The driver can only use Croatian currency in cash Kuna to be paid. There is also a day pass (dnevna karta) for 30 kuna (about 4 €), which is often sold out by the drivers, so it is worth buying in good time for the same price at the kiosk (Tisak and iNovine). All tickets, including those bought from the driver, must be validated (stamped) in the small orange machine at the beginning of the journey (the day ticket only for the first journey, it is valid until 4 a.m. the following day), the electronic ticket must after selecting the number of zones or the day pass function, held up to the machine until it beeps and the screen turns green. Only the machines at the driver's and in the trams also those at the front and last door of each car have a slot for validating paper tickets. In the buses there is only a machine at the driver and the second foremost door, since January 2014 you have to get on the bus with the driver and show the ticket or hold the electronic card to the machine. All single tickets are transfer tickets, which means that they can be used in several modes of transport (tram, bus and funicular) in the same direction within the validity period, so you don't have to buy or validate a new ticket every time you change. When paying with the electronic ticket, even return journeys are allowed during the period of validity. The electronic ticket as well as the paper tickets can be bought at all the chain's newspaper kiosks TISAK and iNovine Buy and top up, the minimum loading amount for the electronic card is 30 kuna (there are additional loading amounts, not every amount is possible), the electronic card costs 10 kuna once, so the minimum purchase price is 40 kuna. The card can be loaded with more money at any kiosk, and longer season tickets (more than 1 day) can only be purchased as electronic cards. The electronic card should be protected from magnets and cell phones. There is a tariff zone system (Tariff zone description with map, Croatian), which is only relevant for the villages outside of Zagreb, as the entire urban area of Zagreb (thus all tram lines) belongs to zone 1. Recently there have been paper tickets for more than one zone, otherwise you simply stamp as many tickets at the same time as there are zones to be used. The ticket (s) are valid for 90 minutes for the Zagreb zone and 30 minutes for all other zones (the two tickets from Zagreb to an adjacent zone are therefore valid for 120 minutes). A day pass is worthwhile for 3 trips or more per day. There are no group tickets, each passenger needs their own ticket. A single ticket only for the funicular (without transfer authorization) costs 4 Kn (approx. EUR 0.50) and is only available in the mountain and valley stations. For longer stays, there are ZET sales outlets (Address list) and at the kiosk tickets for 3 (70 Kn, around 9 €), 7 (150 Kn, around 20 €), 15 (200 Kn, around 26 €) and 30 days (400 Kn, around 52 €). All prices as of October 1st, 2013, accessed November 2014, Tariff overview Zagreb from October 1st, 2013 (Croatian). Annual passes are stored on special electronic cards with a photo of the holder and are only available at ZET sales outlets.
Ticket controls are often carried out by people in civilian clothes. The Penalty for dodging (Croatian) is between 500 and 800 kuna.
To change from trams to buses at the main train station (Glavni kolodvor), you have to walk through a longer, non-barrier-free tunnel from the north side (trams and access to the trains) to the south side (buses, each line has its own departure point along the street). The distance to the bus stop of the same name is also considerable at various other tram stops.
Croatian Railways trains (Hrvatske Željeznice) run every 15 minutes from east to west and connect the suburbs of Zagreb with the main train station (Glavni kolodvor). They are usually the fastest form of transport for those coming from areas far from the main train station and outside the tram network. Railway tickets are not valid on buses and trams and vice versa, exceptions are the monthly or annual editions of the personal electronic card from ZET with photo (preplatne card), which is also available with the HŽ option.

There have been bike rental stations since June 1st, 2013. During the three-month pilot phase, around 50 bicycles could be borrowed at 6 stations in the city center: at the main train station (north side near the tram stop); in front of the Technical Museum on the Savska; at the intersection of Petrinjska and Amruševa; at the intersection of Gundulićeva and Varšavska; in front of the National University Library; on Šubićeva by the green market on Kvaternik Square.

Events
shop
The prices in Zagreb are usually significantly more expensive than in Germany or Austria due to the high VAT rate of 25% and the fact that almost all goods are imported. Exceptions are mainly goods from Croatia and other successor states of Yugoslavia, but here too there are few bargains. An exception are the handmade shoes by Majstor Igrec on Jurišićeva ulica 7.
Shopping streets and malls
The main shopping street is the Ilica from Trg bana Josipa Jelačića to about Britanski trg. There are also many shops in the lower town's pedestrian zone around Trg bana Josipa Jelačića. It is worth looking into the inner courtyards, because the local shops are hidden there, while the same international chains are always right on the street.
Especially in the outskirts, but also in the city center, there are many shopping centers, mostly with the usual international chains.
Weekly markets
There are 24 weekly markets (tržnica) and 3 outdoor market areas (official list with maps and opening times, Croatian.
- 1 Dolac.The largest and most varied market is the Dolac (address Dolac 5), which exists on two levels: The place called Dolac serves as a marketplace for fruit and vegetables as well as some flowers and handicrafts. The latter especially in summer during the tourist season. But the square is at the same time the roof of the market hall, which is on the ground floor of the lower town and offers meat, fish, cheese, dairy products (in a separate area in the east) and some fruit and vegetables. Here you will also find things that cannot be found in the supermarkets or the other markets and market halls, in the meat sector for example rind, innards and tongues. The Dolac is not just a market, but thanks to its diversity it is also a sight where you can experience Zagreb life up close. There are cafes around the upper market square, from which you can enjoy the market.
Flea markets
There are two flea markets in Zagreb, which could hardly be more different.
- 2 Britanski flea market trg, Britanski trg (directly at the tram stop Britanski trg for lines 6 and 11). Upscale offer with corresponding prices: antiques, coins, stamps, medals, furniture, paintings, porcelain, cutlery, jewelry and much more.

On Saturday the flea market is behind the weekly market, seen from the tram stop and Ilica Street, on Sunday it takes up the entire space.Open: Sat and Sun 7:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m., not on public holidays.
- 3 Jakuševac car and flea market, Sajmišna cesta 8 (On the bank of the Sava on the Novi-Zagreb side, about 20 minutes' walk from the Most mladosti tram stop (lines 6, 7 and only on weekdays 8) directly behind the military area, the bus line 295 from Glavni Kolodvor to the market area no longer exists since autumn 2014).

Huge flea market and, on Sundays, also a car market with an area of 12 hectares, where everything has been available since 1970, often at very reasonable prices. Seen from the bank of the Sava and the former stop of the line 295, the flea market is located on the left behind the large car market (on the left behind the modern building with the red applications). The footpath from the Most mladosti tram stop to the flea market area is often lined with stalls, mainly private people, while the actual area is used more by professional traders. The focus of the flea market is on tools and machine parts, including a lot of new goods, but there are also books, clothing, kitchen utensils, cutlery, crockery, electrical devices, cameras, video and DVD films (including porn), coins, and souvenirs all over the world as well as fruit and vegetables at harvest time and home-grown tobacco in autumn. The physical well-being is also taken care of, at some stands there are grilled minced meat, and in the area of the car market there are some restaurants. Depending on the weather, the flea market starts to close at 12:00 p.m., so, as with all flea markets, it is worth going early. Sturdy footwear is recommended, as neither the footpath nor the flea market square itself are paved - there is gravel, in which there are a number of potholes and, when it rains, deep puddles.Open: Wed and Sun 7:00 am - 3:00 pm (Wed only flea market, not on public holidays).

Eine Auslandskrankenversicherung (kostet etwa 10 Euro für 1 Jahr) ist daher sinnvoll, die gesetzlichen Krankenkassen erstatten nämlich nur die deutschen Regelsätze, ein Krankenrücktransport kann von ihnen nicht erstattet werden.
Practical advice
Lesen und Sprechen
Kroatische Kinder beginnen mit ihrer ersten Fremdsprache während der Grundschule, in den meisten Fällen ist dies Englisch. Daher sprechen jüngere Leute meist ausreichend Englisch, während man bei älteren aus historischen und kulturellen Gründen oft mit Deutsch oder Italienisch weiterkommt.
Es ist außerdem hilfreich, ein paar kroatische Wörter und Phrasen zu lernen. Zagreb kann eine vibrierende und hektische Stadt sein, in der ein paar molim (bitte), hvala (danke) und oprostite (Entschuldigung, tut mir leid) gleich für mehr Freundlichkeit bei Ihrem Gegenüber sorgen.
Besuch während des Sommers
Der Sommer ist traditionell die Zeit für Bauarbeiten und Instandsetzungen in Zagreb. Wenn Sie Zagreb zu dieser Zeit besuchen, sollten Sie sich vorher darüber informieren, welche Straßen gesperrt sind, außerdem müssen Sie verstärkt mit Staus während der Hauptverkehrszeit rechnen.
