Holiday House Hum with Pool

Hum. The gates of the world. We enter the smallest city in the world, which according to legend was created when the giants built cities in the Mirna Valley and eventually built Hum from the remaining stones. It was first mentioned in 1102. The city walls protected the place from the frequent incursions of the Venetians and Turks. There are two Glagolitic inscriptions on the western city gate. The doors are ceremoniously opened every year on the Day of the City of Hum when a new prefect is elected "on a summer day". It is located 7 km from Roca. Apart from being known as the smallest town in the world, it has recently proudly been called the City of Biska, and Biska is a brandy with mistletoe, whose recipe originates from Hum. Every year at the end of October, the Brandy Festival is held in this town, where famous brandy producers from all over Istria compete for the best brandy. Today Hum has about twenty inhabitants. Gradic can be visited in 5 minutes, and you can stay longer in the Hum tavern tasting some of the famous Istrian specialties, or buy some souvenirs in the Hum Gallery.
