Ban Jelačić Square (Trg bana Jelačića) is the main square and heart of Zagreb, situated in Lower town, just on the stairs to Upper Town. Here people meet under the white clock. This is also a busy tram hub, and here you find beautiful historical buildings as well as modernist buildings, market stalls, monuments like the equestrian Ban Jelačić Statue and Mandusevac Fountain, a modest fountain that gave the city its name, according to the legend a Slavic tribe leader asked a woman called Manda to scoop up some water for him and said: “Mando, dušo, zagrabi vode" . And Zagreb got its named from "zagrabi" and the small fountain from Mando.

There is a modern glass “skyscraper” at the square as well, that feature a 360 degree observation deck on top (currently closed due to covid, 2021). Ilica is the main shopping street that goes West of the square. Here you find Nama, a classical department store with an art deco atrium.
Just above Jelačić Square is the busy Dolmac Market, where you can find fruits, vegetable and souvenirs.
