About Rovinj
Rovinj is an Istrian fishing town on a small peninsula, with a hilltop church, Venetian-style houses and a coast of islets and pine forest.
Rovinj's old town stands on an oval peninsula, once an island, with narrow cobbled lanes winding up to the baroque church of St Euphemia, whose bell tower, modelled on St Mark's in Venice, rises above the sea. Pastel houses crowd around the harbour, and the Balbi Arch marks one of the old gates. Venice ruled the town for five centuries, and Italian remains in daily use beside Croatian.
