The City of Rijeka

Do you love the dynamic life of a unique city and what it offers in terms of entertainment and culture? Or would you prefer beautiful beaches, greenery, tradition, nature, sometimes crowds and sometimes solitude? If you want all of that at once, you have already made your choice – Rijeka.

The City of Rijeka is located by the sea and has all the facilities you could want from a Mediterranean tourist centre: beautiful beaches, promenades, squares and streets, a rich program of events and atmosphere. In addition, the rich and diverse surrounding area provides you with the opportunity to escape into tradition, romance, pristine flavours or adrenaline sports and even - why not? - a ski resort overlooking the sea. Truly, a unique mosaic!

 

In the centre of the city, at the ever vibrant Korzo, in the small streets of the old city core, before monuments that are testimonies of centuries past, or in the silence of Trsat, the oldest Croatian Shrine of Our Lady – Rijeka and its surrounding area have lived many lives, worn many faces and shown its many sides. Rijeka's calendar is filled with events throughout the entire year so its guests, no matter the time of their arrival, will find numerous interesting and attractive things to do; be it music, theatre, art, etc. Performances for all, as well as urban clubs for the young that offers the entertainment they like it. 

 

If there is one event out of the numerous that should be emphasised, it is most surely the International Rijeka Carnival that was placed by the Sunday Times at the top of the world's most attractive events. Crazy times are guaranteed!

 

Although Rijeka has a rich history, it is not limited by it. Rijeka vibrates with the dynamic rhythm of everyday life. And when in most cities the lights go down and silence settles in, Rijeka keeps on with its intense life in its coffee bars and restaurants with a superb gastronomic offer as well as clubs where the fun for the young lasts until the small hours of the morning.

 

Rijeka, to put it simply, has many faces - all of them are interesting and seductive and all of them are meant for you.
