Vodič (Sandra & Edo)
Razgledavanje
In this resort 20 minutes west along the coast from Rijeka you can follow in the footsteps of the Austro-Hungarian Emperor and nobility who established Opatija as a spa and used to spend their winters here.
One look at the town and you’ll understand why it was called the “Nice of the Adriatic” in the 19th century, and the Austrians certainly left their mark.
Opatija is bursting with stately architecture dating to the rule of Franz Joseph I. Try Villa Angiolina, an extravagant palace with formal French gardens, or take an easy stroll on the Lungomare, a seaside promenade laid out in the 1880s.

Ten kilometres up the coast from Rijeka is this little stone town on high ground, 365 metres above the sea.
The streets of the 16th-century core are just right if you want to escape Rijeka; in fact, many Rijekans come to Kastav in summer for the many concerts and festivals held at this scenic spot.
There’s a blues festival and a guitar festival, as well as the Kastav Summer of Culture, which runs throughout the season. Check local listings to see what’s going on if you drop by.
In the meantime you could just revel in those vistas that go out to the islands of Krk and Cres, and down to Rijeka.

The lovely coastal village of Moscenice makes a great day trip and is about 30 kilometers southwest of Rijeka. Perched on a hilltop and offering superb views over the Kvarner Gulf, Moscenice's quaint, narrow streets and alleys lead to the many attractive piazzas so typical of this medieval town. Highlights include the Baroque Church of St. Andrew (Sv. Andrije), rebuilt in the 17th century and easy to find thanks to its tall bell tower, which rises above the rest of the town; the old town walls; the 16th-century Church of St. Sebastian; and the 17th-century Church of St. Bartholomew.
If time permits, be sure to pop into the Ethnographic Museum (Etnografski Muzej), which explores the history of the town. Below the town is Moscenice Draga with a pebble beach, which can be reached by a set of stairs leading down from Moscenice
