Croatia
The sea song is particularly melodic in the old city center of Zadar. This is due to the sea organ, a seamlessly integrated art installation that makes itself known only when the tide comes in and holes in the stone steps can be heard emitting low drones, an ephemeral song that will never be quite the same. So as the sun sets, sit back and appreciate the organ, an instrument introduced in brothels, co-opted by the church, and now carved into stone between the sea and the sky.
