The city center was built in the form of a hexagonal star to protect itself from the Turkish invaders. We continue through a beautiful winding landscape towards the coast. At one or the other vantage point we stop. Our destination is Opatija - also known as "Nice of Croatia". Opatija is a historic town near the Croatian town of Rijeka, which boasts many attractions. A walk through the city takes us past many monuments that tell Opatija's brilliant story.

After another 40 km we arrive at the fishing village Jablanac. From here, several ferries to the island of Rab. In the village is the lowest mountain hut in Europe, which is located 20 meters above sea level. The Adriatic coast road with its countless curves then continues to Karlobag at the foot of the Velebit mountain. From here ferries to the islands of Pag and Rab. At the next town Starigrad Paklenica you can visit the National Park Paklenica, where there is a variety of flora and fauna.

The historic city of Zadar is the gateway to the Dalmatian region. The absolute highlight is the old town complex, which is located on a peninsula, separated from the new town. Other hotspots are the new landmark: the sea organ near the waterfront promenade spreads unmistakable sound images that can be heard up to three kilometers away in good wind and the adjacent project "Greeting to the Sun". It consists of three hundred multi-layered circular glass plates that store solar energy and release it in atmospheric sunset plays.
