Rovigno: L’arcipelago di San Eufemia.

Leaving behind the channel Lim, traveling with cypress and pine trees you come to Rovinj archipelago of St. Euphemia.
 
 Surrounded by islets that seem to protect it from the fury of the waves of the Bora, which often blows in winter even at 160 km. time.
 
 
 
 Even Rovinj has a strong Venetian its mark, in fact, its bell tower is clearly inspired by that of Venice. The Republic of Venice ruled here for over a century, the city had fully earned the nickname of the common people of the sea because of its promiscuity of bilingual people.
 
 
 
 The tobacco industry in Rovinj
 
 Economic Rovinj had its beginning at the time when the Habsburg tobacco factory was built. The factory employed women in particular for his work and other factories have followed this model.
 
 
 
 Today Rovinj lives mainly on tourism, but the industry has its say and the tobacco factory is now a colossus that is engulfing even the hospitality industry.
 
 
 
 Among the ancient alleyways and winding streets.
 
 
 
 Rovinj was built by the Romans on a small island and named it Ruginium, only later was joined to the mainland by an artificial bridge where today we see only the mainland.
 
 Once Rovinj was protected by two boundary wall to repel the onslaught of barbarians, whose remains (walls) are visible from the nail Budicin sea.
 
 
 
 In the medieval city was entered dal'arco Baldi on which heads of a sea lion. A picturesque road uphill Grisia, through the old town through the narrow streets and steep stairways and hidden passages seeds that lead to the church of St. Euphemia.
 
 
 
 But the transition to arrive at Santa Eufemia can also be done from the marina east along the path of Holy Cross.
