July 20, 2019 - Continuing our look at tourism in Croatia almost 50 years ago through archive video, a visit to Rovinj in 1973.
This article started out as a blog about Rovinj back in 1973, and the video shot by an Englishman on holiday which you can see below. Having done the same with Dubrovnik, I thought it would be fun to do a short nostalgic series on Tourism as It Once Was.
And then I noticed one of the comments below the video:
With the exception of people's clothes, this video could easily pass as 2018.
Which is not quite the same feeling you get with Dubrovnik these days.
Interestingly, Rovinj has the most overnight stays of any destination in Croatia, more than 3 million a year, while Dubrovnik has by far the most cruise ship visitors.
Which destination do you prefer these days, and why?
