| Zadar is a 3000
years old town and for centuries it was Dalmatia 's capital. Its symbol
is the preromanesque St. Donat's church from the 9th century with the
most beautiful examples of the Romanesque architecture in Croatia close
at hand: St. Stošija's cathedral (13th ct.), St. Krševan church and St.
Mary's belfry (12th ct.). Natural beauties, numerous bays and beaches,
ancient historic monuments, and a rich choice of food with a number of
regional specialities is what makes Zadar and its surrounding one of
most attractive regions in Croatia.
You can visit Zadar, which is
23 km away from Sv. Filip i Jakov, using your own transportation and

TOWN
NIN |
|
|
|
Nin- for a long
time residence of Croatian kings and bishops, Croatia's place of birth.
The small town with its historical monuments looks like a museum- e.g.
the "smallest cathedral in the world" the old Croatian church of Sv.Križ
(St. Cross). Only 40 km from Sv. Filip i Jakov, Nin is situated on a
small island, connected with the mainland by two bridges.
There is a well-known natural bath with curative mud. In the Roman era
it was called Aenona and was an important semi-autonomous municipality.
It later became the capital of a province and the seat of Croatian
bishops.
You can come in your own vehicle and spend half a day sightseeing… |

present-day town of Biograd , nearby both Zadar and Split airports, on
the main tourist road, derives its life strength from its beauty and the
lovely scenery which make it an attractive destination for pleasant
holidays in the picturesque countryside. It is a well-developed tourist
destination with numerous hotels, villas, restaurants, cafes and
marinas. Although Biograd has a rich cultural life and many places of

sea activities, while the extra terrestial Kornati islands are a true
heaven for holidaymakers and boaters.
