Rijeka
Rijeka has the largest port in Croatia and one of the most important in the Adriatic Sea, that has a long maritime tradition, making it a major hub for shipping and trade throughout history.
The city has long been associated with shipbuilding, manufacturing, and maritime trade, and these elements are still visible
in its urban landscape today.
Rijeka's architecture reflects its industrial past, with many factories, warehouses, and industrial buildings still standing, some of which have been repurposed into cultural or commercial spaces.
These structures, combined with more modern industrial areas, give parts of Rijeka a utilitarian, industrial aesthetic.
Rijeka’s industrial vibe is also influenced by its port infrastructure, with cranes, docks, and shipping containers forming part of the city’s skyline, especially near the waterfront.
The hiking trails around Rijeka offer some fantastic views, each with its own unique perspective of the city, coast, and surrounding nature.
