It is recommended to spend between 30 minutes and 1 hour to walk around the square, take photos and enjoy its atmosphere. If you combine it with a coffee at the nearby terraces, it can extend to 1.5 hours.
The square is dedicated to King Tomislav, the first king of a unified Croatia in the 10th century, and has been the historic heart of Samobor since the 17th century.

The best time is during summer (June to September) to enjoy the good weather and festivals, preferably in the morning or at sunset to avoid the heat and capture ideal light. In winter, the Christmas lights make it magical.
