Description
Experience the beauty of millennial Zadar, along with its main attractions, local food and products, as well as intriguing stories and legends that form its rich history, on this one-hour interactive Online tour.
Our live streamed tour will start at Queen Jelena Madijevka Park - a hidden, peaceful oasis located right in the middle of the bustling old city. The park will also afford us an unmatched view of the most beautiful part of the impressive, UNESCO-protected 16th-century city walls, namely the Landward Gate. We will then take a walk through Five Wells Square and pass the St. Simeon's Church which holds the golden chest with Saint Simeon's Casket. Here you will hear interesting legends and stories that surround the golden chest holding the mummified body of the silver-crowned bearded saint.
Continue through the Kalelarga main street to the Beautiful People's Square, and you will get a chance to enjoy performances by local musicians in front of the 16th-century City Lodge and the City Centinel. Those taking this tour in the morning will be rewarded with a visit to the bustling town market, where you will see broad range of local products, from fish, meat, figs and other different fruits and vegetables, all the way to local souvenirs.
At the end of Kalelarga Street is located a well-preserved 9th-century Church of St. Donatus, a visit to which will be followed by one to the nearby Roman forum - the latter serves as a favourite coffee spot for locals and tourists and is bound to be an interesting experience.
In the final leg of our tour, we will cover a long and beautiful waterfront to witness a unique Sea Organ, as well as various solar-powered urban installations that will allow us to enjoy natural music created within this installation by wind and waves. This in itself would be an enchanting end to the tour, but those opting for evening tours will additionally be rewarded with views of a stunning sunset, which the famous director Alfred Hitchcock once called the most beautiful in the world!
