What in the world is Nin?

So, as we previously mentioned, our optional fee is split into two parts: first part will be used for a visit to Ada Ciganlija, Belgrade's summer hotspot; and the second part will be used to visit Nin, a small town near Zadar. What makes it so special? Let's find out.


Nin is located to the north of Zadar, and has quite a rich and fascinating history. It is full of archeological findings that go back all the way to ancient times, and in the early Middle Ages it used to be a religious and political center of Croatia. This is a town where history really comes to life. One of the main attractions is the Church of the Holy Cross, from the 9th century, also known as 'the world's smallest cathedral.' It is also known for its beautiful sandy beaches, clear water, and sources of healing mud. Nin is a relaxing place, off the beaten path. In other words, you will get the chance to explore a place that is typically not in travel guides. So, get away from the crowds for a bit and discover Croatia as the locals know it.
