Not everyone knows about the existence of the smallest city in the world. In addition, this amazing town is not even mentioned in geography lessons. However, the city is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the smallest city in the world.
Well, it's time to get acquainted!
The smallest city in the world is called Hum and is located in central Istria, Croatia. The walled city is built on a hill and can be reached by a narrow asphalt road. There is a paid parking near the fortress, 1 hour costs 5-7 kunas (in rubles it is about 50-70 rubles), but you can also park for free if you find a free parking place near the fortress)). And so, the entrance to the city is felt through the massive iron gates, on which craftsmen are depicted in bas-relief. There is also a church in the city.
Immediately to the right of the entrance there is a monument of Glagolic writing.
After passing through the gate, you find yourself in a fabulous and cozy town.
Miniature streets, and there are not so many of them, beckon to walk along them.
A local resident followed me everywhere))
The streets are lined with souvenir shops as well as small restaurants called Konobami. They are sure to offer you local cuisine and wines from local vineyards.
The population of the city is 27 people. In the summertime, residents rent apartments to tourists. Probably, this is the quietest and most fabulous place for seclusion as there are not so many tourists. Creative pointers will lead you to the apartment.
On the outskirts of the city there are ruins along which local cats walk. There is also a bench from which you can admire the surrounding spaces. Any buildings are prohibited near the city in order to maintain the status of the smallest city in the world))
There are no pointers leading to the city, you look on the map, everything seems to be clear, but it is not always possible to find it on the first try. So arm yourself with a GPS navigator.
