The Dvigrad ruins aren't necessarily anything to write home about, but they do offer a nice place for a picnic, or just a nice detour while driving in the Istrian countryside. Free parking, free "entrance," easy to see in 30 minutes or so.

Great for those travelors who like to explore things themselves. Hiking shoes are recommended. The palacinka, made by the lady at the little kiosk next to the parking lot, is delicious.
