Zadar is one of the oldest cities on the Croatian coast, known for its rich history, vibrant old town, and unique attractions by the sea. The Roman Forum, historic churches, and stone streets bear witness to centuries of diverse cultures that shaped the city, while the Sea Organ and the Greeting to the Sun installation represent its most recognizable modern symbols. Thanks to its blend of historical landmarks, coastline, and relaxed Dalmatian atmosphere, Zadar is one of the most popular destinations in northern Dalmatia.

A pre-Romanesque church from the 9th century and one of the most recognizable symbols of Zadar. It was built on the remains of a Roman forum, and today serves as an exhibition and concert space thanks to its exceptional acoustics. Its circular form and simple stone architecture make it one of the most significant monuments of the early Middle Ages on the eastern Adriatic coast.
