Raša, Istria
Raša is the youngest town in Istra. On the personal initiative of Mussolini, the town construction started in the middle of 1936. At this time the town was built in order to accomodate the miners and mining. It was named after the river that flows through the settlement. Even if today Raša is white because of the stone and concrete, Raša was in fact built of coal. The town square is dominated by St. Barbara church, the patron of all miners. The church itself is shaped like an upturned coal-mine cart, while the church tower has the shape of a coal mine lamp.

História mesta Rabac
Rabac je hlavným turistickým letoviskom na východnom pobreží Istrijského polostrova, asi 40 kilometrov od Puly a len 5 kilometrov od Labinu. Rabac vznikol z malej rybárskej osady a premenil sa na turistické centrum. Je považovaný za perlu Kvarneru pre svoje prírodné krásy a pekné lagúny.
Jeho prvý hotel, Hotel Quarnero, bol postavený v roku 1889. V prízemí hotela sa nachádzalo iba niekoľko izieb a krčma. Kaiser, rakúsky dôstojník, ktorý bol bežným klientom prvého hotela, neskôr kúpil Dubrovu, oblasť v blízkosti Labinu. Dnes sa v Dubrove koná Sympózium so stredomorskými sochármi a mesto sa preslávilo aj svojím parkom sôch. V roku 1925, v období talianskej vlády, sa otvoril prvý väčší hotel v centre mesta Rabac a bol nazývaný "Terst" – dnešný názov je "Primorje". Kapacita hotela nemohla uspokojiť stále rastúci dopyt turistov, hlavne zo severnej časti Talianska. Preto sa začal intenzívnejší rozvoj súkromného ubytovania. Cestovný ruch na Istrii a v Rabacu sa začal rozvíjať v šesťdesiatych rokoch. Odvtedy boli postavené všetky hotely, apartmány, kempingy a väčšina súkromných domov. Medzi pravidelnými návštevníkmi sú Nemci a Rakúšania, po ktorých nasledujú Angličania a Taliani.
