Knin ist eine Stadt in der Gespanschaft Sibenik-Knin, die im dalmatinischen Hinterland in der Nähe der Quelle des Flusses Krka liegt und ein wichtiger Verkehrsknotenpunkt auf den Eisenbahn- und Straßenverbindungen zwischen Zagreb und Split ist. Knin ist zweimal in die Geschichte eingegangen: als Hauptstadt des mittelalterlichen Königreichs Kroatien, auch Königsstadt genannt, und kurzzeitig als nicht anerkannte, selbsternannte Republik Serbische Krajina während des kroatischen Unabhängigkeitskrieges von 1991 bis 1995.Das Gebiet des heutigen Knin, genauer gesagt der Hügel Spas, war schon in der Steinzeit besiedelt. In der Nähe des heutigen Knin befand sich einst die Stadt Burnum, die im 1. Jahrhundert v. Chr. als römisches Militärlager diente.

The lovely city of Knin has some astonishingly beautiful rivers. My friends and I enjoyed canyoning along the river admiring all the lush vegetation, trees, and scenic views. We afterward had picnics that were so much fun. I recommend this city to every nature lover.

My friends and I had a terrific time here in Knin. We especially found the outdoor bars very relaxing as they had magical scenic views of the sea. The panoramic views at night, while enjoying a glass of wine and grilled fish are just unforgettable.
