 tram network and schedules by roza_hr Parts of Zagreb are connected through a network of trams and buses. Blue trams have become a trademark of Zagreb as it's the only city in Croatia with trams, beside Osijek. The price of the single ticket is around 1 euro (6.5-8 HRK). There is a difference in price: it is a bit cheaper to buy a ticket at the newspaper stand than in tram. It is valid in one direction only, for a period of 90 minutes. It's valid in buses as well. The price of a daily ticket, valid in all directions, is around 2,5 euro (18 HRK). Trams are a fairly efficient way of getting around, going every 5-15 minutes and connecting all major parts of town, although they are often crowded, especially between 7-9 in the morning and 3-5 in the afternoon. Pretty annoying, especially in the summer. There are also night trams going every 30-60 minutes. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Funicular by sabsi Uspinaca, the funicular connecting the lower town and the upper town, is definitely a fun way to get to the upper town. It takes hand stopped 45 seconds to get from the station at Ilica to the stop next to Lotrscak tower - which probably makes it one of the shortest funiculars in the world. ;) Normal tram/bus tickets are valid on the funicular. You just have to show it as you enter the station. The funicular leaves every 10 (?) minutes. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Tram at Jelacica Square by HORSCHECK Zagreb has a very good tram network, including night trams. It covers almost all interesting places of the city. Single or day tickets can be purchased from kiosks for 6,5 kn or 18 kn. They are more expensive when bought from the driver. All tickets must be stamped when boarding a tram. Leave a Comment

 their habitat by roza_hr Imagine deliberately choosing a job knowing everyone is going to hate you for it, and you aren't going to help anyone. Well now you know what kind of people the ticket inspectors are. They occasionally appear in trams and buses (much more often now than before!), looking just like everyone else, which means no uniform. And they're usually the people you least expect them to be: an old lady with a bag full of groceries, a middle aged man with a suit and a tie, a skater boy with baggy pants...you never know. Anyway they'll sneak up to you, flash their badge and say "Kartu molim" (ticket please). If you have a valid ticket (meaning it's been cancelled in one of the orange machines inside the tram or a bus, not more than 90 minutes ago), well good for you. But if you don't have it, then you might encounter some problems. They'll usually ask for your ID and if you give it to them, they'll write you a fine. The sum is not that small either - 158 HRK (around 20 euro) which you need to pay either immediately, or up to a week from the day you got fined. OR ! You can try following tactics: pretend you don't understand them, or refuse to give them your ID, but this is risky as they might get angry and make you a scene and threaten to call the police, which they can. Or you can use your charm and try to talk them out of it, which can be successful, but I would advise you only get into this if you feel confident about your Croatian vocabulary. Which is unlikely. So, save yourself trouble and buy a ticket. Leave a Comment

 In the tram by sabsi Zagreb is a tram city! There's the blue trams everywhere you look and step basically. They run frequently all day, at night there's night trams. Get yourself a tram system map from the tourist information to know where to go with which tram. A single ticket is 6,50 Kunas, the day tickets costs only 18 Kunas and entitles you to use it as often as you like for tram, bus or funicular rides. Buy tickets from the kiosks near the tram stops, they are cheaper than when buying them from the driver. Leave a Comment

 Gay crossing by sabsi Apparently you can get fined for crossing the street in Zagreb so please use traffic light junctions or zebra crossings. Only if there's none of these within the next 100 metres you can cross the street whereever you like. On this pic you can see the gay crossing at the main station. It was painted for some CSD parade and was kept there luckily. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Zagreb is a city full of blue trams. Being from Zurich I felt immediately at home as we also have blue trams. Zagreb has 15 tram lines which are easy to use. Just make sure you get yourself a tramline map from the tourist office. The latest series of trams have buttons to push in order for the doors to open unlike the older trams which open all doors at each station automatically. Trams can be very full especially around rush hour. So far stations are not announced yet, so count your stops on the map. Currently (in 2007), a few lines are diverted as there is a major construction site on Kvaternikov Trg (Square) so lines 5, 7 and 13 running differently. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 The 17 on its way to the Lake... by polardabar The city transportation can get quite annoying sometimes, but I guess that's because I live here & I can tell the difference. Anyway, local traffic system consists of busses & trams under the company's called ZET - Zagrebacki Elektricni Tramvaj. A ticket costs about 1 EUR & you can use it for 1 ride only. There are also daily tickets which cost a bit more than 2 EUR & you can use those the whole day until 4 AM the next morning. You can either buy tickets on a tobacco shop or from the driver, but then they're a bit more expensive. You're gonna have to get accustomed to the way of driving in Zagreb - there's just too much traffic! The good thing about Zagreb is that it has a 24-hour public transportation! :) There are 15 lines that drive around the city during the day & 4 during the night. You might wait for a ride a bit longer from around midnight till 4 AM, beacuse the trams (or eventually busses) drive approximately every 35 minutes. Leave a Comment

 Funicular Railway by HORSCHECK Zagreb is home of a very short funicular railway (uspinjaca) which was built in 1891. It connects the Lotrscak Tower in the Upper Town with the middle of Ilica Street in the Lower Town. Ilica Street is Zagreb's longest street starting in the city centre with shops, cafes and restaurants and leading to the western suburbs of Zagreb. Leave a Comment

 Heated seats!!! by sabsi The old Czech trams used in Zagreb are heaven in winter as the seats are heated!!!!! It's just hard to leave when you have arrived at your destination. It would be nice to take the seats home with you ;) However, not all trams are Czech unfortunately. There's German and Croatian trams as well who have plain cold seats (but as they are so crowded you hardly ever get a seat that's ok I guess ;) Leave a Comment
