One of the many exhibits in the Museum of Broken Relationships. Also one of the funniest. |
The capital city of Croatia was a brief two hour bus ride from
Plitvice and after leaving the incredible nature of the Lakes we couldn’t help
but feel a little down heartened to be back in a city. In saying that Zagreb
had its charm, the hostel was one of the best we have stayed in filled with
friendly Scots and Americans, the city itself is quite zany with the old town
sitting comfortably with modern and artistic endeavours. The zaniest attraction
we came across was in fact the museum of broken relationships. A place where
people can leave items that remind them of previous lovers to help the healing
process. An interesting idea and a place that was funny, touching and
depressing all at the same time. The city also had fantastic fresh food
markets.
Croatia was a blast, many new friends were made and
experiences were had. You will be missed.
