2 65 INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Riviera in which Opatija is the body, Lovran is the heart and Mošćenička Draga is the soul. The Opatija Riviera has been writing its history since the 12th century, from the times of skilled pirates and sailors. If you stop for a moment and close your eyes, almost always will you be able to feel the spirit of long ago times, hear the footsteps of the Austro-Hungarian gentlemen, the Emperor Franz Joseph, Isadora Duncan or a long list of world dignitaries who INTRODUCTION chose this gem of the Adriatic Sea as their vacation site. This encounter with the past is an unforgettable feeling here.

Developing alongside Opatija were the towns of Volosko, Ičići, Ika, Lovran, Medveja, Mošćenička Draga and Brseč, beautiful maritime towns located under the slopes of Učka Mountain, the greenest mountain on the Adriatic Sea.

The Opatija Riviera is lovely in the summer and magical in the winter, when it plays host to numerous congresses, conferences and seminars. In the warm summer months, you will be greeted by the clean sea, nice beaches and good entertainment, while in the winter you can walk along the 10 kilometre long waterfront, hike along forest trails or visit one of the health and wellness centres. Spring and fall are ideal for bicycling, hiking or just sightseeing all the sights described within this guide.

3 NATURAL CHARACTERISTICS

With its proximity to , Austria and Italy, the Opatija Riviera has an advantage over all other tourism destinations. Just kilometres before Opatija is Preluk, an inlet where the Mediterranean Sea cuts deepes into central Europe, thus bringing the continental and Mediterranean climates together on the Riviera.

Due to the climate, the mild winters, bearable summers, constant air circulation, sea aerosols and the rich vegetation, Opatija and Lovran have developed as climatic rehabilitation centres. The average summer air temperature is 21.9°C and winter air temperature is 7°C, while the summer sea temperature

NATURAL CHARACTERISTICS NATURAL climbs to 26°C. The winds blowing most frequently in are the bura (northwesterly) and jugo (southerly) while in summer, the maestral (westerly) is common as is the morning tramontana (northerly), to the delight of windsurfers and sailors.

The most beautiful photographs of Opatija were taken while the strong jugo wind, which blows from land to sea, was blowing.

Due to the position of the Riviera and Učka Mountain which dominates over it, the sun sets earlier in the summer months, allowing for carefree time on the beaches. The Riviera averages about 2100 sunny hours per year. Of special note are the pleasant summer nights, when the temperature drops to about 17°C before dawn, ensuring a good night’s sleep.

4 The Opatija Riviera can boast having lush vegetation, coniferous and deciduous plants, laurel and rosemary bushes, cherry and chestnut trees, as well as numerous exotic plant species in the Angiolina and St. Jacob Park in Opatija, which for many years has been granted the title of the most beautiful park in .

The Riviera stretches over 25 kilometres of coastline, and is divided administratively into the City of Opatija with 12,719 residents, the Municipality of Lovran with 3,987 residents, the Municipality of Mošćenička Draga with 1,640

residents and the Municipality of Matulji with 10,544 residents. CHARACTERISTICS NATURAL

5 A SHORT HISTORY

Traces of history have been well preserved in this region. There are numerous caves still to be explored on Učka Mountain and in its foothills, towards the settlements present today, are the remnants of stone cities, such as Knezgrad above Lovran, the oldest settlement mentioned in the Liburnia region. Old Lauriana was allegedly inhabited back in the times of the Romans as the residence of patrician

A SHORT HISTORY Marcus Vispanius Agripa, and the first written traces date back to the 7th century. Nearby Medveja also has its legends, as it is said to have received its name from the sorceress Medeja who disembarked on the pebble beach upon returning with Jason and the Argonauts after obtaining the golden rune.

Opatija received its name from the Benedictine Abbey (Opatija) of St. Jacob which was first mentioned in 1453. This small church received its current appearance in 1506 as the Church of St. Jacob in the centre of town.

St. Jacob was proclaimed the patron saint of the city. In the 19th century, the neighbouring city of Rijeka experienced an economic boom, and the road network

VOLOSKO

6 was extended towards Opatija, thus marking the beginning of tourism development in 1844. Forty years after the construction of Villa Angiolina, in 1883, the Society of Southern Railroads from Vienna began to build the first tourism facility on the eastern coast of the Adriatic “Hotel Kvarner” in Opatija. Following this, the remaining hotels, villas and summer residences were erected, and Opatija became the favourite trendy tourism destination of the rich and famous, and royalty from A SHORT HISTORY around the world were not uncommon guests of the city.

7 FRANZ JOSEPH, ISADORA DUNCAN AND YOU

In recent years, Opatija and its Riviera have been reminiscing of all the distinguished guests and people who were in some way involved in the development of tourism in Opatija. Numerous plaques and sculptures have been erected in their honour, and these have enriched the town’s culture and stop time. The tales of romantic anguish, intrigue, scheming, political games, seeking artistic inspiration hide in every corner of Liburnia, and now you also have become an unavoidable part of these tales. It is impossible to list all the names of the famous guests; however, we must not omit Friedrich Schűler, the General Director of the Southern Railroad from Vienna and the initiator of the tourism development of the city. Dr. Julius Glax and Theodor Billroth deserve thanks for assisting in the development of health and rehabilitation tourism. Also deserving thanks are the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph, the German Emperor Wilhelm, the Swedish-Norwegian King Oscar II, the Romanian royal couple Karol and Elizabeta, the composers Gustav Mahler and Giovanni Puccini, the author James Joyce, author of the novel “Quo vadis”

FRANZ JOSEPH, ISADORA DUNCAN AND YOU and Noble prize winner Henryk Sienkiewicz, the Russian novelist Anton Pavlovich Chekhov and the popular dancer Isadora Duncan who found inspiration for her dance moves from the Opatija palms, with their leaves fluttering in the wind.

8 SPECIAL EVENTS AND CONGRESSES

The Opatija Riviera is alive 365 days a year, for if you were to add up all the special events and congresses held here, it would amount to one event per day. Diverse programs are held in July and August in Opatija, called the Cultural Summer, as well as in Lovran and Kastav, only a fifteen minute drive away. Rijeka is well known for hosting the traditional Carnival every February. At the same time, Opatija organizes the Children’s Carnival Parade, the International Day of Carnival and the unique ball bearing race which has now celebrated its 25th birthday. Matulji is host to the Bell Ringer’s Festival, which includes remnants of pagan customs. Lovran also hosts a great Carnival parade and at the end of the SPECIAL EVENTS AND CONGRESSES folly, Mošćenička Draga builds a twenty metre high rocket which the town tries each year to “launch” to the moon with a fantastic fireworks display. Competitions for Miss Croatia, Alpe-Adria or Universe are frequently held here, and we must not forget the numerous competitions among hair stylists, chefs and barmen, cosmetic and esoteric fairs, dog exhibitions and numerous sporting events, such as sailing regattas, auto races, paragliding and hang-gliding competitions. There is also the Master’s Tennis Tournament of the Istrian Riviera in Ičići, which carries points for the ATP standings.

Virtually every hotel on the Riviera offer congress facilities and modern audio and video equipment. Congress hall capacity ranges from 550 seats in the Grand Hotel Adriatic to 750 at the Hotel Ambassador, and the possibility is available of organizing small gatherings and conferences in the villas of Lovran.

9 GASTRONOMY

The spirit of times gone by is coming back into fashion in gastronomy. Long ago, people were fishermen, cattle-breeders, wine-makers and olive growers, and their daily nutrition depended on the harvest of grapes, olives and the riches of the sea. The Adriatic Sea is known far and wide for its delicious fish, from the noble white fish to the very healthy blue fish. Here fish is prepared in GASTRONOMY the simplest way, to ensure that the aroma and flavour of the sea dominate.

In one of the numerous restaurants on the Opatija Riviera, try the gilthead, sea bass, john dory, dentex, hake, surmullet, grouper, cuttlefish, squid, octopus, sardines, mackerel and tuna and the unforgettably sumptuous prawns, shrimp and various shellfish. Olive oil is the basis of Mediterranean cuisine, and our ancestors believed the oil to be sacred. Maritime herbs such as bay leaf and rosemary enrich numerous dishes. In the spring months, try the lamb from the Kvarner islands and nearby Brseč, meat of exceptionally high quality and flavour as the lambs feed only on healthy aromatic herbs and lick salt off the rocks.

10 A speciality of the cuisine here is the seasonal character given by the fruits of the region, such as asparagus, chestnuts and cherries. Lovran is well known for its gastronomy manifestations such as the “Asparagus Festival” in April, “Cherry Days” in June and the “Chestnut Festival” in October. Caterers from around the Riviera come together at these festivals to create a wide palette of GASTRONOMY creative and delicious dishes from this seasonal produce. Nor should you pass up the opportunity to try the homemade brandies made with herbs or honey, which every host will be happy to offer his guests. Liburnian honey is a high quality product, made from chestnut, linden, sage and locust tree nectar.

11 UČKA NATURE PARK

If you are looking to experience one of the most beautiful panoramas in this part of Europe, then you simply must visit Učka Mountain and climb up to its highest peak, Vojak (1401 m) and its stone tower-viewing point. On a clear day, you can see , Kvarner and the central Dalmatian islands, Gorski Kotar, the peaks of the Italian Alps and Venice You can reach Vojak in only a few hours along the numerous hiking trails leading upwards from the towns of the Liburnia Riviera, and considering that the trails lead you through lovely and botanically UČKA NATURE PARK NATURE UČKA valuable beech forests, you will find refreshing shade here in even the hot summer months. Of special note is the endemic Učka bellflower, which grows nowhere else in the world but on Učka Mountain. Mammals in the park include deer, roe-deer, wild boar, badger, marten and field mouse, while bear are found in the northern sections of the park. Almost one hundred species of birds have been recorded in the park, the most attractive being the Griffon vulture, a virtually extinct bird of prey in Europe which still happily lands on the cliffs of Učka Mountain.

In addition to the geomorphological nature monument Vela Draga, well known for its limestone columns tens of metres in height, there are almost 200 caves within the boundaries of Učka Nature Park. Many are home to valuable cave fauna, and many are the sites of palaeontology or archaeology finds. The torrential waterfalls of Učka which flow in periods of heavy rain are particularly interesting to see, and together with the numerous springs and pools make up the hydrological picture of Učka, valuable not only in the biological but also in the economic sense.

12 However, that which will most delight visitors to the park in search of an ac- tive outing in nature are the numerous possibilities for recreation, from light hiking to demanding free climbing, mountaineering or spelunking. If we add to that the many mountain biking trails and the hang-gliding and parasailing sites, then the invitation to visit Učka Nature Park will be all the more enticing.

13 LUNGOMARE

Lungomare is a 10-kilometre-long coastal promenade connecting five resorts on the Opatija Riviera: Volosko, Opatija, Ičići, Ika, and Lovran.

LUNGOMARE Volosko to Slatina was finished in 1889, the same year when Opatija was officially declared a climatic health resort. Lungomare was completed in 1911, when it was connected to the coastal promenade in Lovran.

This walking trail was named after Queen Elisabeth of Romania, wife of the Romanian king Carol I. She was a musician, painter and writer, also known by her literary name of Carmen Sylva. The Romanian royal couple first visited Opatija in 1896 and continued to do so until Carol’s death in 1914

One day, the king got lost during his daily horse ride in the woods somewhere beneath Veprinac. That made him quite furious, so next morning he went straight to the district principal, Baron Arthur von Schmidt-Zabiérow, and asked why the paths were not better maintained and marked. When the cunning Zabiérow confidentially explained that there just wasn’t the money, Carol gallantly produced a rather large amount necessary to deal with the matter. The money was well spent, and the construction of the footpath was completed in 1901. TRAIL WALKING CARMEN SYLVA

The belvedere on Queen Elisabeth’s Rock is locally known as Mala fortica. The plaque with the inscription Carmen Sylva Ruhe can be found above a stone bench beneath the belvedere.

43 FOR THE BODY AND SOUL

The Opatija Riviera is ideal for rejuvenating the body and soul, especially in the autumn, winter and spring months. Way back in 1889, Opatija was declared a health resort and it once had 12 sanatoria, while Lovran had 4. The climate of this region is a godsend for respiratory illnesses, anaemia and for those recovering from heart disease. In 1959, the special rehabilitation hospital Thalassotherapia, specialized in the treatment of heart, lung and rheumatic diseases, was estab- lished. The hospital has 250 beds in five buildings, and accommodation is avail- able in nearby hotels, the majority of which offer indoor swimming pools, fitness halls and wellness programs. Villa Dubrava is a new, modernly equipped hotel FOR THE BODY AND SOUL FOR THE BODY offering a range of medicinal programs, anti-stress programs and programs for weight loss, for osteoporosis, for managers In addition to numerous dental clin- ics, the Riviera also has orthopaedic clinics, aesthetic surgery studios, chiropractic centres, gynaecology and dermatology clinics, cosmetic salons and massage and relaxation parlours. Hotels offer weekend and weekly stress and tension release programs. Part of your recovery will be aided by the physicians and experts, while the rest is worth leaving up to nature, the clean air, green vegetation and the sea and sun. Reveal for yourself why the Riviera has been a favourite rehabilitation place for such a long time.

44 EXCURSIONS

Tourist agencies offer a wealthy program of half-day and full-day excursions. In one day, you can visit two national parks - Risnjak and Plitvice Lakes. Tours throughout Istria, the Kvarner islands, a visit to Lipica and the Postojna Cave in neighbouring Slovenia or Trieste and Venice in Italy will enrich your holiday on the Riviera. Those in search of excitement can opt for the “fish picnic” which offers EXCURSIONS a true fishing experience. If you decide to make a change at the last minute, you can drive or take public transportation and arrive at Mošćenice, Kastav, Veprinac or Učka in less than an hour. You won’t regret it.

The special taste and quality of the asparagus is a result of the so-called aerosol effect, that is, the mixing of sea air with mountain air. Asparagus, like mushrooms, are widely used in gastronomy and may be prepared in many different ways, the frittata being most popular.
