Hum je najmanji grad na svijetu, a smješten je u središtu Istre s jedva 20 stanovnika. Prema legendi, Hum je izgrađen od kamenja zaostalog kad su divovi gradili gradove u dolini rijeke Mirne, području u središnjoj Istri koje uključuje divna brdska mjesta poput Motovuna, Roča i Bala. Unatoč malom broju stanovnika, Hum je sačuvao stari ritual „Izbor župana na godinu dana“ kada se svi muškarci iz župe okupljaju u općinskoj lođi (gradskoj vijećnici) da bi sa seoskim poglavarom uklesali svoje glasove u drveni štap.U Humu možete vidjeti i očuvane gradske zidine i njegove dvije male ulice sa samo tri reda kuća. Danas je Hum grad-spomenik, jedan od rijetkih primjera urbanog razvoja unutar samih gradskih zidina.Osim što je poznat kao najmanjem grad na svijetu, Hum je od nedavno postao popularan i po biski, tradicionalnoj rakiji začinjenoj imelom i napravljenoj prema starom receptu porijeklom iz Huma. Svake godine krajem listopada ovdje se održava festival Grappa koji predstavlja proizvođače rakije iz cijele Istre.Samo sat vremena ugodne vožnje od Umaga, svoj put do Huma možete pretvoriti u lijepu priču o istarskim gradićima.

This is really the smallest city that I have seen) You can see it in 5 minutes.

It is a small town, but with a very long history. It's nice that the place of life of the monks who created the Slavic writing system has survived to this day, and in such a good condition.

My family loves hiking, and Hum had lovely hills for us to enjoy the view of cobblestone streets and colorful houses every time we were out hiking. The wide panoramic views in this town are just phenomenal!

The people of Hum are very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed buying local stuff from the gorgeous shops around and enjoying the truffles, olive oil, and wine which were very delicious! I highly recommend it.
