Zadar: Croatia Travel Pictures

Zadar was one of the highlights of our trip and had a lot to offer. We took the ferry from the end of Rab Island to land at Jablanac. The white marble streets of Zadar make for a beautiful, clean look and the buildings reflecting the history of the town, dating from the Roman times, make up the large part of it's appeal. A thick wall surrounds the town with several gates allowing entry. Ancient St. Donat's church has a beautiful, unusal atmosphere.

Cars waiting for the ferry at Rab. Although the queue seemed long, the wait wasn't
