Brits, Germans and French started to explore the town in the 1960s and they still prevail as the foreign community in this area. There are also many people coming from Switzerland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark together with other nationalities. It is the Scandinavians and northern Europeans who create a safe, warm and highly demanding atmosphere which leads to a high quality in food, services and customer-orientated approach. At the same time, the big sun shining for an average nine hours a day melts the hearts of northern visitors, spreading its fame as a welcoming community.
