Long history, cultural heritage, and a beautiful natural environment, today make it one of the leading destinations in the area of Central Croatia. There are well-preserved buildings built in Baroque style, giving the city a distinctive look, and because of that many people call Samobor a „city-museum”. You can see that once you enter the city's center. Every building in the central square has become a protected monument of culture. Interesting architecture is followed by an equally interesting gastronomic offer. During the rule of Napoleon, the French have stayed for a long time in the city. Their influence is mostly present in gastronomy. Thanks to the french influence the aperitif Bermet was born - a drink prepared from red wine, citrus, and various grasses. If you travel to Samobor you have to try a dessert which is considered a gastro-souvenir of Samobor and it's called Kremšnita. The central event of the year is the traditional Samoborski Fašnik - a lavish ten-day carnival that has been held since 1885 and attracts a large number of visitors.
