In 2005 a unique instrument was created – by stairs leading to the sea there are placed pipes, by which waves are splashing, making melodic sounds. It is worth to listen to that exceptional gig!
In the city there is located a famous square with wells, from which water was drawn to a cistern, providing water to the city for nearly 300 years. It is worth to go there especially after twilight when wells are charmingly floodlit.
On the edge of the seaside boulevard – the Riva – there is an installation by Nicola Bašic, imitating the Solar System. The sun is charging energy during the day to shine with lovely light at night.
Zadar is the oldest, continuously inhabited town in Croatia. It is situated in the western part of the country, by the Adriatic Sea.

That destination is often taken by sailors due to favour, gentle climate and marvellous views.
The city is referred to as small Rome, and sunsets, that can be admired there, are considered to be one of the most beautiful in the world. The old part of Zadar is situated on a peninsula, and with a new one it is connected by a bridge over the Jazine bay. It was built based on rules similar to Roman ones – there are a few main streets, from which smaller one are spreading, forming characteristics rectangles.
