Istria
The largest peninsula in the Adriatic Sea, Istria is a must see destination. Istria is a country of colours – blue and green – which nature used profusely when it created this unique heart-shaped peninsula.
But Istria appears in more than blue and green. Red is the colour of western Istria, the colour of earth which has been feeding the people of Istria for centuries. It is also the colour of wine coming from Istrian vineyards, and the colour of unforgettable sunsets over the Adriatic, which washes the coasts of Istria.
Grey is the colour of the inland peninsula. Grey, stone-walled towns are located at the tops of wooded hills, the grey sacral and antiquity buildings are scattered throughout the tranquil countryside and grey fertile land gives a different perspective of Istria. This is the other side of the peninsula, at first sight, far from the coast and the sea, but at the same time inextricably tied to the Mediterranean way of life.
The third colour of Istria is white. This is the colour of Učka, the highest mountain, which offers spectacular views of the north part of the Adriatic.
Interfusion of many nations has written the rich history of Istria, leaving their trace in architecture, culture and customs. This heritage lives on in melodic dialects, sound of the traditional instrument roženice, in legends, mosaics and frescos, dry stone walls and typical little huts called kažuni.
Your experience of Istria will be rounded off by a tour of wine roads or olive oil paths. In authentic taverns and on family farms, your hosts will greet you with a glass of Istrian Malvasia and Teran, prosciutto and cheese, homemade fuži spiced with aromatic truffles and with traditional fried pastry fritule and kroštule to sweeten your day!
However, not only red, grey and white colour the Istrian peninsula. Istria would not be what it is without blue and green, colours of the sea, forests and at the same time of the best holiday destinations on the entire peninsula, Plava Laguna and Zelena Laguna in Poreč.
All the colours of Istria are precisely what you need to escape the tiresome routine of everyday life. Come, Istria is waiting for you.
