Senj
Senj is a historic city in the northern Adriatic Sea at the foot of the slopes of Velebit and Kapela in the Velebit Channel. A town with a heroic past, it is recognisable by two symbols – the Senj bora wind and the historic fortress of Nehaj on the hill above the town. Its past speaks from every stone, the historic old town centre, the towers, the city museum. Clean sea, beautiful beaches and many entertainment events such as the winter and summer carnivals and a'cappella festivals make it an attractive tourist destination. In the vicinity of Senj there is the Marian shrine at Krasno in the centre of Velebit National Park which is annually visited by a large number of mountaineers and faithful.

Nice town
Nehaj Castle and city Senj are so nice. They have long tradition. If you want to see Croatian history go to Senj. The inhabitants of Senj are extremely generous, really nice people, really funny and open minded.

Good place to visit
During summer 2011, we were at Senj city, Croatia. The small little town but nice. Senj is staggeringly beautiful and has nice beaches with great local food restaurants, we liked it!
