Venice's Dalmatian Capital, 1580

Zara in 1580 stands as Venice's fortified Dalmatian capital, newly ringed with modern bastions and a ceremonious Land Gate by Sanmicheli. This walk passes the city's Roman core, its straight Kalelarga, marble quays crowded with galleys, and the low islands and saline flats that supply its salt and wine.

25 scenes, 16 streets, squares and views, 9 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Zadar as it stood in 1580 (“Zadar”).
