About this audio guide
This guide to Uspinjača, the funicular of Zagreb, starts with a bronze poet on a bench at the top of the line and asks why a city built a railway barely longer than a city block. It reaches back to the steam-hauled cars of eighteen ninety and the citizens who paid for a promenade made purely for strolling. Best heard at the lower station on Tomić Street, watching a car come down.
