The Labyrinth of the Sun, Moon, Love, Mars and Mercury are waiting for you, each with its own story to tell. Get to know how the people have been living in this area for centuries by visiting Gašpar's mill in Martinovo Selo, the only remaining mill on the river Rječina in which wheat and corn are ground in the traditional way. A great souvenir to take home is the organic flour made in this romantic old mill.
