Ovaj pitomi zagorski grad udaljen svega 50-tak kilometara od Zagreba. Krasi ga bogata povijesna baština koja seže čak 130 tisuća godina unatrag kada su na prostoru krapinskog brda Hušnjakovog praljudi ostavili svoj neizbrisivi trag koji je ugledao svjetlo dana zahvaljujući Dragutinu Gorjanoviću Krambergeru, istaknutom geologu, paleontologu i paleonantropologu. On je zaslužan što se ime Krapine pronijelo širom svijeta.Osim nedavno otvorenog novog Muzeja krapinskih neandertalaca, Krapinčani su veoma ponosni i na krapinsku utvrdu koju su posjedovali kralj Ludovik I, grof Herman II. Celjski, ban Vitovac, kralj Matijaš Korvin i hrvatski ban Ivaniš Korvin...Ovdje je rođen i Ljudevit Gaj, otac hrvatskog narodnog preporoda, a krapinskim su ulicama koračali i August Šenoa, Marija Jurić Zagorka, Janko Leskovar, Ivo Andrić...Iako je zagrljaj prošlosti jak i sveprisutan, Krapina danas nudi ponešto za svakoga. Tu su kulturne manifestacije kroz cijelu godinu – između ostalog Krapinske špelancije, Glumački festival, Ljeto u Krapini, Noć krapinskog pračovjeka, Dan grada uz tradicionalne manifestacije Zagorski glazbeni festival "Krijesnica" (od 1996. godine) i nezaobilazni Tjedan kajkavske kulture s Festivalom kajkavskih popevki koji se održava već punih 49 godina.Bogata gastronomska ponuda iz krapinskih ugostiteljskih objekata mami svojim mirisima i privlači nepca turista namjernika. Ako pak duša čezne za mirom u zagrljaju prirode, brojni planinarski putovi i staze, od kojih je najpoznatiji Put Dedeka Kajbumščaka, pokazat će vam svu raskoš i ljepotu krapinskog krajolika. Za ljubitelje likovne umjetnosti tu je Park skulptura na otvorenom „Forma prima“ koji se nalazi na brdu Josipovac i Gradska galerija, a ako poželite nakratko utonuti u prošlost prošećite kroz užu gradsku jezgru, od Šetališta narodnog preporoda, Parka matice hrvatske, gdje se nalazi i rodna kuća Ljudevita Gaja, do Trga Ljudevita Gaja, pa od Magistratske ulice preko Uske ulice do znamenite krapinske utvrde, „Starog grada“.

One of the remarkable things about our trip to the place is the fun that we had throughout our entire time. We went to the music festival that was organised and the experience was unmatched. Great artists and wonderful partying spirit among the people. Unforgettable nights for us to have.

A vacation without a hike around the place would not count as a success for us and we had a nature hike that led us to some amazing spot that showcased the beauty of the place. Breathtaking views that we loved and had some pictures taken along the way.

This town is full of intriguing places to visit. We got to see the remains of Neanderthal prehistoric man. We even got to take nice pictures with the statues. It was a fascinating experience.

There are lots of beautiful sights to see in this town. My boyfriend and I loved taking walks in ancient ruins admiring the ancient architectures. The trip was worth it.

The mountain view and the landscapes covered with lush greenery were amazing. This place had clean fresh air and a cool refreshing climate. It was the best get away from the hustles and bustles of the busy town life.
