Zagreb is the capital of Croatia, with most of the hotels, venues, cultural and historical attractions withing 15 minutes walk of eachother. The city is divided into three parts: the thousand-year old Gornji grad (upper town) which contains the Presidential Palace, the historic church of St. Mark's, the Croatian parliament, and museums and galleries which are all set in cobbled streets lit by gas lamps; the 19th century Donji grad (lower town) with shops, restaurants, cafes, theatres, parks; and the modern post-war (WWII) Novi Zagreb (new Zagreb) which is full of high-rise buildings and very little to offer visitors. Zagreb Pleso Airport is about 13 miles from the heart of Zagreb.
