Sun Salutation
The Sun Salutation (Greeting to the Sun) is a 22-meter diameter circle of solar-powered glass panels set into the waterfront next to the Sea Organ. Free. During the day it collects solar energy; after dark it produces a light show of colored patterns that change with the waves and the music of the Sea Organ. Budget travelers come at sunset for the combined experience of the organ and the light show, one of the most unique free attractions on the Adriatic.
