Live webcams Lopar online - islands of Croatia

Lopar, whose webcams can be viewed online on the site, is the main tourist center of the island of Rab. It is located in the Gulf of the Adriatic Sea off the northern coast of Croatia. This small town is located on a peninsula that is heavily indented with small bays. The resort is famous for its beaches.
The history of this place dates back to the Paleolithic era. Archaeological excavations have helped to find burial mounds of Illyrian tribes, traces of Greek colonization, as well as the presence of Celts and Romans. Roman pottery kilns became the main value. Moreover, they were both stationary and mobile. This testified to the active life of the Romans in the era of antiquity. We also managed to find the ruins of ancient buildings and parts of ceramic dishes. This suggests that there was a pottery workshop here. In addition, the Romans were among the first to build such capital structures as villas and equipped ports.

In different historical periods, Lopar, whose webcams can be viewed online, belonged to Byzantium, Austria, the Croatian kingdom, and after the end of the First World War it became part of Yugoslavia.

In 1941-1945. The Nazis built a concentration camp here, in which more than a thousand people were killed. When Yugoslavia broke up in 1990, the island of Rab and Lopar, along with it, went to Croatia.
Among the sights of Lopar can be noted the archaeological park, which contains the remains of an ancient fortification. It protected the island more than 2.5 thousand years ago. By the way, if you come here in May or July, you can get to jousting tournaments. They come here every year.
It is worth noting that there are not so many attractions in the city itself, we can say that there are practically none. But since the cities of the island are located close to each other, you can explore them. It is better to start from the capital - the city of Rab. There are many historical monuments in this place. Among them is the Cathedral of St. Anthony. It was built in 1175. Until now, this religious building has retained decorative elements on the facade and in the interior, which were made during construction.
Not far from this cathedral is the Church of St. Mary. Its high bell tower can be seen from anywhere in the city. The attention of the tourist is also the monastery of St. Andrew, as well as the Cathedral of St. Justina. Within the walls of the latter today is the Museum of Religious Art. It contains hundreds of unique valuables, the age of which sometimes reaches 1 thousand years. Also in the city of Rab, palaces, "doll" houses, parts of fortresses have been preserved. There is also an archaeological park in the capital, where you can find the ruins of medieval fortresses and ancient chapels.

A favorite place for locals and travelers alike, there are many plants, including Italian poplar and Indian figs. Also part of this park is sown with herbs. One can only imagine how fragrant the air here is in the literal sense.
Another uniqueness of this island is that during the holiday season the streets of almost all cities turn into art galleries. Local and visiting artists come to the island to enjoy its beauties and capture them on their canvases.
Since the island is still a resort place, there are a lot of beaches here. Only in Lopar itself there are 22 of them. You can find both sandy and pebble beaches. The most visited was Rajska. It stretches along the sea for almost 2 km. It is the most developed in terms of infrastructure: hotels, restaurants, entertainment. Pudarica beach is more often chosen for holidays with children, because it is surrounded by a pine forest and the clearest sea. In general, the beaches of the city have a gentle slope into the water and shallow depth.
On the island you can find active forms of entertainment. If you are tired of sunbathing on the beach, then you can try surfing or water skiing.
