Starigrad: Zadarska, Croatia
Few places in northern Dalmatia have a history as closely tied to the Roman settlement of Argyruntum as Starigrad. Its archaeological remains lie near the modern settlement, beneath the limestone slopes of the Velebit range. Starigrad is the coastal base for Paklenica National Park, whose two principal gorges, Velika and Mala Paklenica, cut deeply into the mountain above the Adriatic Sea. Established in 1949, the park protects the transition from the sea-facing shore and pine-covered foothills to stark karst terrain. Compact holiday homes and small bathing coves line the waterfront at the foot of Velebit, while the surrounding area is well known for hiking and climbing.

Croatia occupies a long Adriatic coastline in southeastern Europe. Its shore is broken into islands and sheltered coves, while the Dinaric Alps rise inland and the Danube forms part of its eastern border. Dubrovnik’s fortified old city faces the sea, and Split grew around Diocletian’s Palace, a Roman complex begun in the early fourth century. Inland, Plitvice Lakes National Park is known for terraced lakes linked by waterfalls and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Istrian olive groves, Zagreb and Slavonia’s vineyards reveal distinct regional identities.
