RIJEKA is a small town with all the amenities of a big city. Yet, you drive around in a hip. It seems that everything is 5 minutes away. We were yet to eat in a bad restaurant. From chevapchichi, pizza to excellent sea food and desserts for the fraction of the price you pay at home. People are friendly and helpful. For their own good they should smoke less. Communication is not a problem since most speak English. The vicinity of Opatia is an asset. You have to visit that spot while in Rijeka. They have from great hotels, restaurants to beaches and shopping too. Shopping opportunity is abundant with good return for your money. Visit the Tower Center for that. Cultural heritage is very rich as well. Visit Trsatska Gradina for a medieval castle, Guvernerova palača and the Maritime Museum, or myriad of churches. It also has a leaning tower in the old city not as popular as the one in Pisa. The best thing to do is to just walk around the town, get lost in the little streets and always emerge on Korzo the main drag. Saturday night before the Carnival almost all venues were closed. We managed to find one pub that served drinks and reheated food. Other restaurants were creepy, empty and smelled bad or closed. Ended up getting more food from McD's. Rijeka is an industrial town, if you expect to have have fun, pick elsewhere. You have to be high or drunk to enjoy the boredom what they call a carnival, don't bother with it. Masks are half arsed, coffee shops are cold and drafty, waitors are rude and everywhere you go it's too loud with everyone blaring their own music trough speakers so you can't hear anything. The great thing was the coastal drive up from Zadar. Rijeka is a cosmopolitan , vibrant place. We saw some of the old town in the afternoon. The theatre which we really wanted to see was shut off because of a movie crew. We couldn't talk our way past the production security, so no Klimt for us. We only stayed the night, had a great dinner at Spagho, then saw the fort in the morning and went on to Plitvice. So can't give a detailed review. The architecture was impressive, but mixed up with some sorry looking eastern bloc holdovers and bad commercial choices. The port is a working industrial site combined with a commercial cruising yacht marina. Not exactly inspiring, but nice enough. For us, it was the top of the Adriatic after working our way up from Split, so we were glad we came!
