The third largest Croatian city Rijeka borders the northern Adriatic Sea with the Kvarner Bay. The idyllic port city was named European Capital of Culture in 2020. After the First World War, Rijeka belonged to Italy. For this reason, the city still has a strong Italian influence. Worth seeing is especially the National Theater, which is known for provocative and socially critical plays. In Rijeka there are still some active shipyards. If you want to learn more about them, visit the Museum of Maritime and History. The high-altitude pilgrimage site of Trsat is also worth a visit. Around Rijeka there are many beautiful beaches. Whether windsurfers, beach party goers or even cliff jumpers: everyone will find the right activity.
