Destaques de Zadar

Discover one of the Adriatic’s most interesting cities, where the old fashion way of living and new modern life, coexist in perfect harmony. Follow your guide through the picturesque streets of Zadar’s historic center and see its treasures.

The Zadar area was first settled in the Neolithic period and since then, it has succumbed to numerous invasions from different civilizations.
