In a nutshell

Kremsnite... yummy :)
yumyum Says: The narrow-gauge railway to Samobor was opened in 1901. For many years it was a popular means to get to Samobor. Unfortunately, it's no longer. But you can see the last train as a monument next to a playground. Unfortunately it's full of graffiti.
Samoborska pivnica: Local specialities

"Oleander": Refreshing atmosphere
croisbeauty Says: Cafe Oleander is situated next to the city park and the small brook and that makes the refreshing atmosphere, especially in the evening hours when the gentle breeze starts. Do not miss it when in Samobor.

yumyum Says: In order to see this church you will have to walk uphill behind the museum. It's a pleasant walk through some forest. After the last houses there is a steep path or alternatively a more road like one. Take the more road like natural path. The church was padlocked when we...
