Stone, mortar and a long past, Butori ponor is the sort of landmark that makes you read every information plaque.

## Good to know

Butori ponor stands in **Istria**, one of the six regions that make up the Croatia most visitors fall for. From the Adriatic shore to the karst mountains and the quiet inland valleys, this part of the country gives you something worth the detour.

A guided tour is usually worth the few extra euros, the stories are the point.

## Practical info

- **Entry:** check the official site for today's price and hours. These move with the seasons, and some locations close fully outside the main window.
- **How to get there:** Tap the map for the route. Croatian town parking is mostly paid and marked with blue P signs; if your trip involves an island, build buffer time in for the ferry.

## Best time to visit

The best window for Butori ponor runs **May to October**. June and September balance warmth and thinner crowds; July and August are busy and hot. Out of season, winter shows a calmer, cheaper Croatia that rewards the inland cities.
