Visiting the port city Rijeka in Croatia

During my stay on the Island Krk I also happened to visit Rijeka, which is a big Croatian city on the main shoreline. he city’s economy largely depends on shipbuilding and maritime transport. I never visited before, but I managed to escape Krk for one afternoon at make a stroll. I enjoy the city, though it being a port city it can get a bit dirty and busy. The city does have a quality that is different from other bigger towns on the Adriatic Sea, like Split and Dubrovnik. Situated between the famous resorts Opatija and Crikvenica, this pearl is also often visited as an excursion destination. It is worth staying longer in Rijeka, because numerous attractions in the old town, interesting museums as well as beautiful beaches are waiting to be discovered! The absolute gem of the city is the Korzo, a beautiful pedestrian promenade with numerous colorful buildings built during the Habsburg monarchy. On top of that, on a city tour you will find numerous magnificent squares with ancient buildings, beautiful imposing churches and admirable castles.
