Kvarner Gulf with Opatija and Rijeka

WI_hr418.jpg

View from Veprinac in E direction down to Opatija and, across the Kvarner Gulf, to the city of Rijeka. The town of Opatija (formerly Abbazia) has a long tradition as a holiday resort, rooting in the period of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The coastal area is sheltered by the Učka mountains and therefore characterized by a mild climate.
