Overview of the tour in Zadar

We start the tour at Trg bunara 5, which the city resisted with water until recent history. Then I will take you to the first public park in Croatia, Jelena Madijevka Park, from where you will have a view of the monumental Land Gate, a unique specimen on the east coast of the Adriatic that is recognized by UNESCO and placed under its protection along the City Walls of the 16th and 17th centuries. Nearby stands the church of St. Simon, one of the patrons of Zadar, and his body is kept in a gilded chest of 280 kg of silver and gold. Take walk through the main city artery - Kalelarga, which will take us to the Town Square, where the people of Zadar have been meeting since the 12th century.

After that we stop at the ancient Forum - museum at the open air.

At this place there is a large pre-Romanesque monument from the 9th century - the church of St. Donat, which is made entirely of the remains of ancient stone from a Roman temple. Near the Forum is the Zadar Cathedral, the largest on the eastern Adriatic coast from the 12th century, dedicated to St. Anastasia. The tour will be concluded with the latest and unique installations of Zadar - Sea Organ and Greeting to the Sun.
