centuries. A very interesting structure
is the small early Croatian church of
the Holy Cross from the 9th century, which
is considered the smallest cathedral in
the world. Another important sight is
the treasury of golden and silver objects
from Nin.
However, Nin is not only a historic town.
Together with its surroundings, Nin offers
excellent opportunities for vacations
and recreation, especially for health
tourism. Around Nin are several long sand
lagoons, far from the crowd, traffic connections
and industrial zones, with outstanding
microclimatic conditions. The shallow
sea, indented into the mainland, has a
temperature 2 or 3 °C higher than the
open sea. Salinity and aerosol are also
higher. The seawater is very clear and
clean (due to shallowness there is almost
no maritime traffic). Here are also the
largest deposits of medicinal mud (peloid)
on the Adriatic. Peloid has been used
for medicinal purposes from the Roman
times. There is a small out-patient department
and rehabilitation programs in the summer
months are offered in the open. |
