Discover l'Istrie
It's often said that Istria is Croatia in a nutshell! As much for its natural environment as for its culture. Just like its soft language, which plays with Slavic and Latin consonances, the regional identity is at the center of Italian and Slovenian influences. Today, the region is striving for greater autonomy. Regionalism is active. Climatically, the temperate zones are more continental in the northern pre-Alps and frankly mild along the entire Mediterranean coast, which benefits biodiversity, agriculture, seaside tourism and agro-tourism. Croatia's admirably preserved historical heritage, lively folk arts and traditions, generous gastronomy and dolce vita are just some of the reasons why holidaymakers can easily spend a week or more in Istria without getting bored.
