The island's rich heritage is reflected in the architecture of Valletta, the current capital, and Medina, the capital until 1565.

The Gulf of Kotor is sometimes called the southernmost fjord in Europe, although it is actually a submerged river canyon.

Allied bombing destroyed much of the historic centre which was rebuilt after the war only to suffer more attacks by Yugoslav forces in 1991. In recent years Zadar has undergone a startling revival. Cafes and bars are filled, museums and churches have been restored and tourists pour in to take boats to nearby islands.
