History
The rolling Bednja valley is a lattice of small family wineries, farmhouse restaurants and painted klets (wooden vintners' huts). The Bednja dialect is famously the most conservative form of Croatian, preserving vowels no longer used elsewhere in the country.
“Linguists study the Bednja dialect as a living fossil — it preserves five vowel qualities that have merged in every other Croatian dialect.”
