Zadar

Great town to visit with plenty of historic buildings, restaurants and beach life!

A city build in Roman times, but flourishing during the rule of the Venetians, with the building of many churches and palaces. Zadar is located on a small peninsula and is ideal for a stroll around the historic buildings, visit to museums and of course shopping for souvenirs! The Anastasia Cathedral and the Donatus church are a must see as they are well preserved and show a unique and beautiful architecture.
