Hum, Croatia: The Legend of the World's Smallest City

Hum is located in the north-central Croatia Istria Peninsula, Guinness World Records certified "the world's smallest city". This miniature ancient city has a population of only about 20-30 people, but has a complete urban structure and a thousand years of history. Its iconic stone-walled hilltop castle, built in 1102 as a medieval military fortress, still retains its Romanesque architecture.

Historical, cultural and architectural treasures

The 12th-century church of St. Jerome, with its frescoes in Gothic and Renaissance styles, remains in the old town of Khoum. The traditional annual "Election of the Mayor of Khum", in which the inhabitants of Khum vote for their leader on wooden boards, is a unique folklore that has been practiced for centuries. At the entrance to the city, the stone boulevard "Glagolitic Alley" inscribes the history of Croatian writing in the ancient Glagolitic alphabet.

Tourist Features and Visiting Information

It is a 2-hour drive from the capital Zagreb, and it is recommended to combine this with a visit to the nearby town of Rovin. The best time to visit is from May to September, when you can take part in the medieval-themed summer festivals.

Yerevan: Millennium Capital of Armenia and Pearl of the Caucasus

Yerevan, the capital and largest city of Armenia, is located at the foot of Mount Ararat on the banks of the Yarara River. It is one of the oldest cities in the Caucasus, founded in 782 BC, and is regarded as "the oldest capital in the world". As the political, economic and cultural center of Armenia, Yerevan is a blend of ancient history and modernity: the remains of Yerevan Castle and the Blue Mosque in the Old Town speak of the vicissitudes of a thousand years, while the spacious boulevards and modern art venues show the vitality of the city. The pleasant climate, mild summers and low snowfall winters, and the mix of religions and cultures, as well as Armenia's unique stone carvings, carpets, and traditional cuisine (such as kebabs and apricot products) exude a regional flavor that attracts visitors to this "Pearl of the Caucasus".
