Croatia KunaRijeka Guide by In Your Pocket
What comes to your mind when you think of a holiday in Croatia? If you’re from the English-speaking world, probably Dubrovnik or somewhere down there in the south, while if you’re from Germany or Italy there’s a good chance you’ll also be in on the charms of Istria to the north. Somehow, the part of the coast in between, called Kvarner, has been forgotten, and its capital Rijeka relegated to the status of a transit point.
OUR Rijeka HIGHLIGHTS
-
Corso
Light and delicious cakes - some of the best in town, we'd say. Great coffee too. A perfect terrace for a spot of people-watching on Korzo, and a bright and cheerful upstairs seating area with a view of the decorative buildings opposite.

St Vitus Cathedral
Although there has been a church dedicated to the patron saint and protector of Rijeka since the Middle Ages the Cathedral as we see it today was founded in 1638 by the Jesuits, who were once an influential force in the Europeanisation of Rijeka under the Hapsburgs.

Very nice meal, but somewhat spoiled when the waiter stole our credit card, then bought $200 worth of groceries, and attempted to withdraw $900 from an ATM, which didn't work. Very friendly fellow, too. Play it safe and eat somewhere else.[...]
