Love at Sunset: A Stroll Through Zadar's Old Town
✅The biggest attraction in Zadar is its churches. The Church of St. Donatus, built in the 9th century, is one of the city’s iconic landmarks. ✅This Romanesque-Byzantine round church is particularly significant as one of the few early Croatian structures to survive the 13th-century Mongol invasion. 💫Beyond St. Donatus, Zadar’s Old Town is home to many other churches, each with its own architectural charm: 💫St. Anastasia’s Cathedral. St. Chrysogonus and St. Simeon’s Church. St. Krševan’s Church. St. Elijah’s Church St. Francis’ Church. St. Mary’s Church. For artists, these churches offer perfect sketching opportunities. 🍃Zadar’s waterfront features two unique attractions: 🔹 The Sea Organ – A 70-meter-long concrete staircase with 35 pipes that produce melodic sounds as waves push air through them. 🔹 The Greeting to the Sun – A 22-meter-wide circular installation made of solar panels that transforms sunlight into a dazzling light show at night. 🌀Locals still live in the Old Town, leisurely selling handmade crafts at small stalls. This laid-back charm is yet another reason to explore Zadar. #Zadar #SeaOrgan #ZadarOldTown #GreetingToTheSun
