Holidays in Croatia are nothing new for Poles - each of us has probably been to Dubrovnik or admired the Plitvice Lakes so many times that we could lead tours around them ourselves. Therefore, when going on holiday to this picturesque corner of Europe, it is worth, instead of yawning again from boredom, look for a place that is perhaps less known, less frequently visited by bus trips, but precisely because of this - maybe also much, much more interesting?

If we are looking for a place that would allow us to escape from the crowds, but at the same time have a lot to offer, it is worth going for a short trip to the small, beautifully situated Rovinj. The town stretching right on the shore of the Adriatic Sea is a great place to relax and immerse yourself in a fascinating mix of two cultures: Italian and Croatian. Many tourists come here to take a break from the chaos and rush of life in nearby Venice. And this is not the worst choice - if we board the ferry, we will reach the famous "City of Lovers" in just two hours!

Rovinj – a city of relaxation

Visiting Rovinj couldn't be more enjoyable - the old part of the city is downright compact and it's best to get around on your own feet or... by bike. Yes, just go to one of the two-wheeler rental points and, for a small fee, you can glide through the rich network of bicycle paths, admiring the charms of the city. Rovinj looks most beautiful from a bird's eye view - and to see it from this perspective, you don't have to rent a helicopter, just climb to the very top of the campanile (bell tower) of St. Peter's Cathedral. Euphemia , so that the panorama of the city and the surrounding sea could unfold under our feet.

The next step should be the local market, where hundreds of people mill around in the morning hours. It is worth buying olive oil here (according to some the best in the world!) and... truffles . Yes, these unique mushrooms, a favorite dish in many of the most expensive restaurants in the world, are not only a specialty of France, but also of Istria! The rest of the day can be filled with ordinary blissful laziness - walks along the narrow, stone streets of the old town can literally take us back in time. The numerous old houses, in front of which you can still see Rovinians basking in the sun, blend perfectly with the blue sky and sea visible a little further away. The Adriatic Sea here is warm and clean, and the evening and morning breeze blowing from it allows anyone tired of the journey to breathe deeply.
