Until the mid-19th century, the town of Pag was encircled by sizeable and lovely walls with defence towers. Pag had several town gates, and the largest was in the Katine section, called the Porta Marina. Only the lintel of Rector Nikola Tiepolo remains preserved from this gate. The Minor Gate was a little farther south.
Paklenica National Park is situated on the coastal slope of southern Velebit. It encompasses the watercourses of Velika and Mala Paklenica, their recognizable canyons which were vertically cut into the southern slope of Velebit and the wider environs.
