Bale-Valle, the hidden gem of Istria, medieval streets lined with 14th and 15th-century houses in a circle around the hill, ancient churches and the bohemian, artistic vibe of this place – all this makes Bale unique and full of atmosphere. It is one of the few towns in Istria, which still retains its character. Bale is a place that does not appear in most travel guides about Istria. This small town is located on the western shore of the peninsula, only 15 km from Pula, and 15 km before Rovinj which is considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in Croatia and is visited by many tourists.
