If you have ever thought those were just ordinary cement steps, wait until the waves start playing their tune. And you’ll realize they’re anything but ordinary! (Video below)
Sure, you can jog along them with wide strides, yet that’s not the real magic they hold.
Meet the world’s coolest musical instrument, which is played not by human hands, but by the sea itself. Unveiled to the public in 2005, this marvel instantly became a tourist hotspot, drawing crowds to its mesmerizing melodies.
Designed by Nikola Bašić, Croatian architect the sea organ was conceived to enhance the allure of Zadar’s coastline.
Like a staircase descending into the water, its lower steps allow water and air to flow in, which then travel to resonance chambers beneath the surface. From there, they’re channeled to the upper staircase, creating harmonic tunes as the waves ebb and flow.
Zadar, once ravaged by World War II and then by conflict in 1991, has found solace in the soothing sounds of this unique creation. Its meditative melodies appear to wash away the city’s past horrors, offering a tranquil escape for locals and visitors alike.
Today, you can sit back on the steps, bask in the sunset glow, and enjoy the company of friends amidst the serene melodies.
