After a 20-minute stroll from the bus station, I found myself in the magical Tito Square, the beating heart of Koper! Surrounded by breathtaking Venetian Gothic architecture, like the stunning Praetorian Palace and the towering Cathedral of the Assumption, it feels like stepping into a storybook. ๐๐ซ
The cobblestone streets buzz with lifeโlocals laughing in cozy cafรฉs, kids playing, and the scent of sea air lingering in the breeze. ๐ Take a moment to climb the bell tower for panoramic views of the city and the sparkling Adriatic.
Koper is a gem waiting to be explored. Whoโs adding it to their travel bucket list? ๐

Why Are They Charging Tourist Taxes?
Economic Reasons: Greece implemented the tourist tax to help improve its economy, particularly following the financial crisis. The revenue from these taxes contributes to local infrastructure, services, and the preservation of tourist destinations.
Tourism Impact: As Greece is a popular tourist destination, the influx of visitors can strain public resources. Tourist taxes help ensure that these areas remain well-maintained and can continue to accommodate visitors without burdening the local population.
Fairness: The idea is that those who benefit from the tourism infrastructure (i.e., tourists) contribute to its upkeep.
While tourist taxes might seem like an inconvenience, they play a crucial role in supporting Greeceโs tourism infrastructure and economy. Being aware of these charges ahead of time can help avoid any surprises and ensure a smooth travel experience.
