Everything that needs to be said about the wonderful stone city of Sibenik, located on the scenic Dalmatian coast in Croatia, can be found in this previous blog post. This post will feature a series of great Sibenik Croatia photos.
In this post, I just want to state specifically that this is a city that is strongly recommended visiting. I have to admit that I didn’t know much about it before I visited last summer—it’s not prominently featured in publications quite like, say, Dubrovnik is, after all—but I was more than pleasantly surprised by what the city has to offer.
Just off the top of my head, there are a gorgeous seaside promenade, two stunning nearby national parks—Kornati and Krka—, four fortresses and the UNESCO World Heritage Listed St. James Cathedral. That’s plenty to keep any visitor busy for a few days.
After my visit, I can only say that I wish that I’d had set aside more time than just one full day. Don’t make the same mistake! This amazing medieval, historic city deserves two or three days.
This post is a photo essay of Sibenik—a post that will take you on a walk through this millennium-old city, which, incidentally is the only coastal city in Croatia that was founded by Croats.
So, sit back, relax and enjoy this virtual photo tour of Sibenik.
