Umag

Another lovely Istrian town, Umag, may be found in Istria's far north, not far from Slovenia's border. The Old Town is unquestionably the most fascinating area of Umag, making it perfect for individuals who prefer to explore on their own without having to keep track of the passing minutes.

After World War II, the tourist sector grew fast thanks in large part to the geographic location of Umag and has continued to thrive since then. The increase of this economic sector, which is closely connected to other economic resources in the region, the most major of which is agriculture, can be attributed to both the proximity to large west European markets and the improvement in the living standards of East European countries.

The 10th-century City Walls and the Umag Museum, which features exhibits about ancient occupations and old Roman pots used in this region during the Roman Empire, are the two most recognizable landmarks in Umag.
