Medvedgrad

Weekend before last, Eva took me to Medvedgrad.  It is a reconstructed castle on a mountain high above Zagreb.  The reconstruction was accelerated during the Tudjman regime as a monument to the Croatian nation, even including an eternal flame.









On a sunny day, the views would be spectacular; however, the day we were there it was a bit hazy.








The restaurant at the top was closed, so we walked down through a beautiful park to a tavern set among the trees.



The tavern is next to Queen Vaelo's spring from which fresh mountain water has been flowing since 1406.  We sat outside and had a drink and a chat about the recent trip to the coast with Tim.
