Discover Timeless Zadar
Blending ancient history with modern innovation, Zadar is a coastal city unlike any other on the Adriatic. With Roman ruins, medieval churches, and unique contemporary attractions like the Sea Organ and Greeting to the Sun, Zadar offers a rich experience for every kind of traveler.
Once the capital of Dalmatia, Zadar has a heritage that stretches back over 3,000 years. Walk through ancient stone gates, explore Roman forums, or enjoy the calm of hidden courtyards. But it’s not all history—Zadar’s vibrant cafés, waterfront promenades, and sunsets (famously praised by Alfred Hitchcock) create a perfect balance of old and new.
This is a city where you don’t just sightsee—you feel the rhythm of the past and the creativity of the present all around you.
It was a place where rugged nature met resilient life. Local traditions, many rooted in Slavic and Mediterranean heritage, flourished in harmony with the landscape. The isolation and altitude of Biokovo gave rise to a unique way of life that still echoes in the region’s stone architecture, folklore, and seasonal festivals. Today, Biokovo stands not only as a geological marvel but as a living monument to generations who found refuge, inspiration, and identity among its peaks and valleys.
