Zadar – Global cool destination

Bloged in Croatia, Dalmatia, Sightseeing, Tourism, Zadar by admin Saturday October 13, 2007

Britain‘s Guardian recently proclaimed Zadar the world cool destination.

In the report the Guardian ran on its pages says that Zadar is a favoured tourist destination with a rich history, easily reached by land, air or sea. They made special mention of the Ryanair flights out of London as a way to get to Zadar. On the tourist rout of the town they point out the church of St. Donat as a not-to-be-missed spot, where the Zadar Evenings of Music are staged, the Sea Organ, the only one of their kind in the world and a stroll and coffee on the Kalelargo. The report also says that Zadar has of recently been promoted as the gateway to four national parks – Kornati, Paklenica, Krka and the Plitvice Lakes. Besides numerous cultural events and top-notch accommodation in hotels and other tourism facilities and a thriving nightlife, the Guardian makes special mention of the natural beauty of the Zadar archipelago. They are the reason the magazine highly recommends a visit to the Kornati islands; while for history buffs it recommends a tour of nearby Nin and a visit to the smallest cathedral in the world. And everyone will have their share of good fortune if they just touch the big toe of the bronze statue of Grgur Ninski (Gregory of Nin).
