Church of the Holy Cross
Church of the Holy Cross is a Croatian Pre-Romanesque Catholic church originating from the 9th century in Nin.
According to a theory from an art historian Mladen Pejaković, the design has an
intentionallyunbalanced elliptical form designated to "follow" the position of the Sun, retaining the functionality of a calendar and sundial.
In its beginning, in the time of the Croatian principality, it was used as a royal chapel ofthe duke's courtyardnearby.
The church is that of a central type, it features the Croatian interlace (or simply "troplet") and a carved name of the Croatian župan "Godečaj".
The church is known under the moniker of "the smallest cathedral in the world", but it does not actually contain the seat of a bishop of Nin today.

Nin's beaches: Scenes and pleasure to be remembered
Nin's beaches are one of its trademarks and an impressive scene remembered by all those who have been here, at least once. It is not surprising that many rate them as among the most beautiful in Croatia, if not in the world.
Nin's beaches total a staggering 8,000 metres in length. The longest and most famous among them is a three-kilometre long beach to which a legend is connected. Tradition has it that the wife of the first Croatian king, Tomislav, was especially attracted by its beauty, and the Royal Family, whenever they officially came to Nin would visit this beach to enjoy a few rare and relaxing moments there.
The other Nin beaches such as Ždrijac, Prodorica, Bilotnjak as well as Zaton Holiday Resort are also attractive.
The last one, which is located in the tourist settlement Zaton Holiday Resort, has a blue flag as an internationally recognised sign for quality and facilities.
The beach is surrounded by children's theme parks, swimming pools and water slides with many restaurants and cafes.
