From Plitvice Lakes we arrived near the Sea Organ in Zadar, just in time for the beautiful sunset! The entire sea surface and steps were dyed golden yellow, which was simply stunning! When the sun slowly slid towards the sea level, everyone sat on the steps and admired it. The sea here is really blue, and the reflection of each other is beautiful. 🌅Unlike other sunsets, Zadar not only has a golden sunset, but also the melody of the sea organ accompanied by the waves hitting the stone steps. 📜The sea organ plays music through the resonance of the waves and the polyethylene pipes under the marble steps. The music will also change with the frequency of the waves. Every sunset has its own music, a European romance, love to death! Sea Organ Sea Organ 📍Obala kralja Petra Kresimira IV, 23000, Zadar, Croatia 🍽️: The old town is right next to it. You can find a restaurant to have dinner at any time. It tastes really great.

I traveled to Zadar in early September, there I visited a near by island called Preko and it was amazing. If you go there you should go to visit it.

| Croatia | Zadar | Most Beautiful Sunset | The evening in Zadar is the essence of the whole day, and the afterglow of the sunset still lingers in my heart. Zadar has a sunset that is known as the most beautiful in Europe and even in the world. Even the horror master Hitchcock once said: "If you want to see the most beautiful sunset in the world, please come to Zadar." A nine-day trip through Croatia. I have gone out to sea at dusk in Dubrovnik; sat on the pier of Hvar Island waiting for the sunset; and lay on the beach in Split to enjoy the sun, but I have to say that the sunset in Zadar is the most magnificent. Croatia, with temperatures below 30 degrees Celsius, is warm and it made me understand what a heat wave is like. It has a strong Mediterranean style while retaining a historical atmosphere. The locals' pursuit of life can be summed up in one word: "leisurely". Will Croatia be my next backpacking destination? Erm...I would still like to come on vacation and enjoy the Mediterranean sunshine and beaches in a different way. The most beautiful sunset serves as a summary of Croatia and brings this journey to a perfect end. Next stop, Slovenia. _____________________________________________ 📍 Obala kralja Petra Krešimira IV, 23000, Zadar, Croatia #mytravoto #LifeThisNeverEndingJourney #IslandHoliday #TravelInspiration #TheMostCoolTravelExperience #OverseasTravel

| Croatia | Zadar | Sea Organ | Croatia's last stop - Zadar. Although it is the fifth largest city, the number of tourists here is obviously less than before, but the historical flavor is still increasing. The historical monuments in the old town are all influenced by the Renaissance in neighboring Italy, and also have some architectural styles from the Goethe period. Surprisingly, the buildings here are in perfect harmony with the surrounding shops, and the two blend perfectly. After lunch, take a walk along the seaside and visit the world's first ocean organ. Thirty-five hollow steel pipes of different lengths and sizes are buried at the bottom of the white stone steps. As the tides rise and fall, they create pieces of ocean music. This open-air concert attracted tourists from all over the world to take a break. I took off my shoes, sat on the bottom step of the stone steps, soaked my feet in the cool sea water, and enjoyed the Mediterranean style. The sound of the waves crashing together with the tones of the sea organ create a unique melody. This is the "voice of the sea". _____________________________________________ 📍 Obala kralja Petra Krešimira IV, 23000, Zadar, Croatia 🕑 Open 24 hours #mytravoto #LifeThisNeverEndingJourney #BestTravelExperience #TravelInspiration #ScenicScenicPhotographyGuide #OverseasTravel

The #seaorgan is an architectural sound art object located in #zadar, #croatia and an experimental musical instrument, which plays music by way of sea waves and tubes located underneath a set of large marble steps. #unbelievable #happynewyear

Zadar to a historic old town of Roman ruins, medieval churches, cosmopolitan cafes and quality museums. #zadar old town has a lots of beautiful #gardens at every corner of the town. #happynewyear

One of the most intriguing things about #zadar in #croatia, there is the way Roman ruins seem to sprout randomly from the city's streets. Nowhere is this more evident than at the site of the ancient forum, constructed between the 1st century BC and the 3rd century AD. As in Roman times it's still the centre of civic and religious life. #travelinspiration #roman #ruins #happynewyear

From the moment I set foot on the enchanting land of Croatia, my heart was captivated by the allure of the Adriatic coast. Among the many captivating destinations, Zadar, a city of unique charm and ancient civilization, stands out like a pearl cherished by time, leaving an indelible mark on my soul. I first heard of Zadar for its historical and artistic significance, surpassing even Split and Dubrovnik. This fifth-largest city in Croatia is the cradle of the nation's culture. Its nearly 3,000 years of history make it a profound "history book" that I couldn't wait to explore. Stepping into Zadar's old town felt like traveling back to the Roman Empire. Situated at the tip of a peninsula, surrounded by water on three sides, the city enjoys a unique geographical advantage. The smooth stone-paved roads complement the ancient Roman ruins, and every step evokes a sense of history. The streets and alleys are imbued with historical traces and charm. Reaching out, it feels as if I could touch the veins of time. The city's past unfolded before me, with stories from 49 BC flooding back. Due to its strategic location, Zadar served as a vital link between the Frankish and Byzantine empires. Today, the city's well-preserved cultural heritage, including elegant squares, ancient monasteries, and towering bell towers, silently narrates tales of bygone eras. Strolling through the streets, every relic stands as a testament to the origins of Croatian culture. I realized that exploring Zadar firsthand is far more enriching than reading any history book about Croatia. The city is a treasure trove of architectural marvels. The largest Roman forum on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea bears witness to past prosperity. Ancient Romanesque churches like St. Anastasia's Cathedral and St. Chrysogonus' Church exude a solemn and sacred aura. There's also Nin, Croatia's oldest royal city, home to the world's smallest Church of the Holy Cross, a tiny yet exquisite structure filled with mystique. Most unforgettable is St. Donatus' Church in the Roman Forum at the heart of the old town. This 1,200-year-old Romanesque edifice, with its unique shape, has become even more captivating over time. Now a venue for musical performances, the melodious sounds emanating from within add a touch of romance to the ancient city. Yet, Zadar's charm extends beyond history and culture. The city pulsates with youthful energy, its streets and alleys teeming with entertainment and leisure options. The aroma of food wafting from restaurants, the dazzling array of goods in shop windows, the lively chatter in cafes, and the handicraft stalls in open-air areas create an immersive and unforgettable experience. There's nothing more delightful than spending a summer afternoon by the sea. The azure Adriatic Sea gently embraces the ancient city, its surface as calm as a mirror, its waters crystal clear. The seaside embankment, free from the hustle and bustle of large crowds, offers a tranquil haven for locals and visitors alike. Basking in the sun, with a gentle breeze caressing my face, I was completely captivated by Zadar's enchanting scenery, reluctant to leave. Zadar, this ancient city, weaves a mesmerizing dream with its history, art, lifestyle, and beauty, leaving a lasting impression on all who visit.

#celebrateit Zadar is such a vibe! The Sea Organ is a must see here. The sound of the waves is so relaxing and the sunsets are epic. My personal favourite here was strolling around the old town as it makes me feel like I am stepping back in time with all the Roman ruins and historic spots. It’s super chill and nice. We can also explore the nearby islands. Anyway, I would highly recommend celebrating your holiday here as it is a perfect mix of history and chill vibes.

One of the most scenic locations across the entirety of Croatia’s Adriatic coastline has to be the town of Zadar. The centre itself is worth a visit typical of many places in the region with beautiful architecture and sites but it’s sitting on the edge of the sea on a warm summer’s evening that truly makes this a special spot and a reason why thousands decide to make this their holiday destination #celebrateit #croatia #Sea

Great place to stay

🇭🇷 Zadar is the oldest city in Croatia and the hometown of the famous soccer star Luka Modric. It perfectly combines historical sites with modern style. I only stayed in Zadar for one day, but this ancient city, which is both quiet and romantic, gave me unexpected peace and comfort. It is also one of my favorite small cities in Croatia. ⛪️ Zadar: Zadar is an ancient city with a thousand-year history. The entire ancient city retains the traditional ancient Roman city structure, including ancient Roman towers, city walls, city gates, and Roman-style roads. Zadar is surrounded by the sea on three sides and has the world's only musical instrument, the Sea Organ, which is also the highlight of the city. 🚶🏻‍♀️‍➡️Travel tips: One-day tour of the old town Zadar is a small city, and its main attractions are concentrated in the old town, which are within walking distance of each other. You can visit all the attractions in just one day. It is not as popular as Dubrovnik or Split, so I think this city is more like the most underrated treasure city in Croatia, with its unique understated beauty. You can wander around the old town, listen to the romantic Sea Organ by the sea, and feel the gentleness and comfort of this city. 🌟 You can visit all the attractions in the old town by walking around, and the most recommended attractions are: 📍 St. Donatus' Church This is a medieval round church, dating back to the 9th century, and is one of the oldest buildings in Zadar. It is now mainly used for concerts and festivals. 📍 St. Anastasia's Church St. Anastasia's Church is also known as the Cathedral of St. Anastasia, and it is the largest Catholic church in the Zadar area. It is a typical Romanesque church with an 800-year history. 📍 Sea Organ The Sea Organ is a famous art installation in Zadar that produces organ-like sounds through the action of the waves. It is a must-see experience. At sunset, you can sit by the sea and quietly enjoy the natural music played by the Sea Organ. 📍 Greeting to the Sun Next to the Sea Organ is a square with a circular monument made of 300 glass panels. The photovoltaic cells charge all day, and the collected energy can be used to create a fantastic light show at sunset. 🛣️ Transportation: 🚌 Bus: There are buses to and from Zadar from major tourist cities such as Zagreb, Rijeka, Pula, Sibenik, Split, and Dubrovnik. 🚗 Self-driving: You can drive directly from Zagreb to Zadar along the A1 highway.

Zardar is another city on the Adriatic coast. When we arrived, we walked to Kalelarga, the city's historical and cultural street, full of ancient sites, restaurants, shops and accommodations. Then we walked to the seaside promenade to The Sea Organ, a musical instrument designed by architect Nikola Bašić, which creates beautiful music from the waves. We went to the Sea Organ in the afternoon. The sun was strong and we couldn't sit for long. I recommend coming during sunset. The atmosphere is great and very romantic. #VisitAncientCities

The Cathedral of St. Anastasia in Zadar, known also as Zadar Cathedral, is a significant religious and historical landmark in Croatia. The cathedral is dedicated to St. Anastasia, a 4th-century martyr whose relics were brought to Zadar by Bishop Donatus from Constantinople. It was built on the site of an early Christian basilica. The relics of St. Anastasia are housed within the cathedral and are an important pilgrimage site. The bell tower, which offers panoramic views of Zadar, is a later addition completed in the 19th century in the Neo-Romanesque style. As the largest church in Dalmatia, the cathedral has been a central part of Zadar’s religious and cultural life for centuries. The Cathedral of St. Anastasia is not just a place of worship but also a testament to Zadar’s rich historical and architectural heritage. #europetrip #travelwithgeo #couplestrip #awesomepic #cathedral #zadar
