The Vela Vrata ("Great Gate") in Buzet is a historic city gate dating back to 1547, the main entrance to the fortified old town, and is decorated with a relief of the town's patron saint, St. George. It is considered a symbol of the town's history and hospitality, as the gates to Buzet were never closed. Today, it is not only a significant architectural monument but also a tourist attraction, as the boutique hotel Vela Vrata with a gourmet restaurant is located right next door, offering Istrian specialties and wines in a historic setting.
