Istria is the biggest peninsula in the Adriatic Sea. It is a region of the almost eternal spring with comfortable temperatures and Mediterranean vegetation. Istria is the home of olives, figs, almonds, grapes and numerous small wonders. Slavonic, Romanic and Germanic peoples meet there and cultures, customs and points of view merge into one. The Istrians say “As long as there is wisdom, there will be ways.” Despite the evident Italian past of Istria, there is not one road that leads to Rome, but all the roads lead into medieval little towns, situated along the coast, up to small hills, to lonely churches, villages, inns and to the last craftsmen of dying trades.
