Teave
Kiired faktid: St. Donatus Church was built in the 9th century using stone from the Roman forum right next to it. Its circular shape with three apses and massive tower make it one of the best-preserved examples of pre-Romanesque architecture in all of Europe.
Esiletõstmised: When you stand inside the church and look up, you notice the incredible acoustics. Since the 1960s, the church has hosted the world-famous "Musical Evenings in St. Donatus," where brass music fills the room in a way that makes the hairs on your arms stand up.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Come here during the annual summer concerts in July and August for an unforgettable musical experience in the ancient space.
- Make the climb up to the bell tower for panoramic views of Zadar and the coast; it is worth the narrow stairs.
- Visit early in the morning to avoid the cruise ship crowds and have the peace all to yourself.
- Bring your camera and lie down on the floor in the middle of the church to get the perfect symmetrical shot up toward the ceiling.

Kas oled kuulnud tasuta jalutuskäikudest?
Pärast reisimist üle 30 riigi on üks asi, mida sooviksin, et keegi oleks mulle esimesest päevast peale öelnud, ja see muutis täielikult minu linnakogemust.
Tasuta jalutuskäigud. Jah, tõesti tasuta. Kaarti ei ole vaja. Püüniseid pole.
Kohalik giid, 2-3 tundi
Peamised vaatamisväärsused, peidetud pärlid, kohalikud lood
100% jootraha põhine
Giidid teenivad ainult jootraha, seega annavad nad parima
Sa annad jootraha nii palju kui tunned õigeks
Lõpus annad lihtsalt jootraha nii palju kui tunned õigeks
Olen neid teinud paljudes linnades ja need on olnud peaaegu iga reisi tipphetk. Kui külastad Zadar, Croatia, tee seda esimesel päeval. Sa tänad mind hiljem.
