There are two '''Tram Network (ZET)''' <br> stops located in close vicinity to your hotel.<br> | |||
They operate these lines:<br> | |||
'''Line 3''' - between '''LJUBLJANICA''' and '''SAVIŠĆE'''<br> | '''Line 3''' - between '''LJUBLJANICA''' and '''SAVIŠĆE'''<br> | ||

Both stops are located left as soon as you leave the hotel through the main entrance. <br> | |||
The stops are marked on [http://g.co/maps/k68td the map] for your convenience. | The stops are marked on [http://g.co/maps/k68td the map] for your convenience. | ||
===Getting to The Main Square (Trg Bana Jelačića)=== | |||
Considering that the Main Square is the focal point of the city (and the only one), it is quite hard to miss it. <br> | |||
The easiest option to get to the Main Square and the Old Town ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaptol,_Zagreb Kaptol])is via the tram network. <br> | |||
Catch the line 13 tram (heading towards '''Kvarterniko trg''') on the the westbound tram stop near your hotel. <br> | |||
It will make a stop on The Main Square. <br> | |||
<br> | |||
The more leisure-full option is to walk your way to The Square. <br> | |||
Maintaining a general north direction, there are a couple of nice parks and sights on the way, which should make for a more healthy and enjoyable experience. <br> | |||
Just make sure to take a [http://g.co/maps/k68td google maps] equipped gadget with you and avoid the "Miramarska cesta" underpass (walking east by the prolonged and low building at the start of the underpass is a better idea).<br> | |||
