Step into Zadar’s Old Town and trace the city from Roman foundations to vibrant present day life. Your guide begins among the stones of the Roman Forum with the Church of St Donatus close at hand and the bell tower of St Anastasia rising above. This is where you learn how the city grew on a peninsula of limestone and how the main street Kalelarga still sets the rhythm of local life. Nearby squares reveal elegant facades and the lively People’s Square where cafés gather locals from morning to night.
From here the walk turns toward the promenade. You sit on the waterfront steps to hear the Sea Organ, a one of a kind musical installation that turns wind and waves into sound, and just a few steps away you find the solar artwork called Greeting to the Sun. Your guide shares simple context for both sites along with suggestions for the best time to return for sunset. The tour closes with practical tips on what to see next, where to eat, and how to plan the rest of your stay. The experience is sponsored by Gligora Cheese and Deli, whose central peninsula shop near the marketplace showcases award winning Pag cheese, prosciutto, and regional wines for guests who wish to continue their exploration after the walk.
