Happy Saturday Hivers how are you? Today I finally found the time to write a post that I had been waiting for for several months about the last city I visited on my trip to Croatia, we are talking about Rijeka, a city very dear to Italians because it has long been disputed and above all loved by one of our most famous poets and writers, Gabriele D'Annunzio.
However, we visited this city during our last day in Croatia and above all because this is the seat of the Italian consulate where we had to go because my husband had lost his identity document. Getting to this city was not pleasant, there was really a lot of traffic and chaos in the streets, we were used to small cities, but here the streets were full and chaotic, even finding parking wasn't easy and we parked at the top of the city, to get to the main street we walked up a large staircase, called the tersetto staircase, very beautiful, made up of 550 steps, I risked my lungs but the view is beautiful and the view of the gulf is magnificent.
Feliz sábado Hivers ¿cómo están? Hoy por fin he encontrado el tiempo para escribir un post que llevaba varios meses esperando sobre la última ciudad que visité en mi viaje a Croacia, estamos hablando de Rijeka, una ciudad muy querida por los italianos porque durante mucho tiempo ha sido disputada y sobre todo amada por uno de nuestros poetas y escritores más famosos, Gabriele D'Annunzio. Sin embargo, visitamos esta ciudad durante nuestro último día en Croacia y sobre todo porque es la sede del consulado italiano al que tuvimos que acudir porque mi marido había perdido su documento de identidad. Llegar a esta ciudad no fue agradable, realmente había mucho tráfico y caos en las calles, estábamos acostumbrados a las ciudades pequeñas, pero aquí las calles estaban llenas y caóticas, incluso encontrar estacionamiento no fue fácil y estacionamos en la parte alta de la ciudad, para llegar a la calle principal subimos por una gran escalera, llamada escalera tersetto, muy hermosa, compuesta por 550 escalones, arriesgué mis pulmones pero la vista es hermosa y la vista del golfo es magnífica.
Rijka is a city that mixes ancient with modern, there is an area dedicated to large skyscrapers and buildings which are symptoms of the strong building expansion of recent years but there are also ancient and rich streets, it is a very colorful city full of life and people, shops, bars, restaurants, a very vital and modern place. It is also a multi-ethnic city made up of many populations also because it was Italian, Hungarian, Yugoslavian and finally Croatian, there are people from all the Balkans and also many Italians. The main streets are in my opinion magnificent because they have many beautiful buildings, with an almost regal appearance, some are offices and schools but others are real symbols of the city, the smaller streets instead hide small surprises, colorful murals and delightful bistros and shops selling typical products. Now I'll leave you with some photos and then I'll come back to talk to you about this magnificent city, the Italian consulate and our return journey through Slovenia, another country that I would really like to visit!
Rijka es una ciudad que mezcla lo antiguo con lo moderno, hay una zona dedicada a grandes rascacielos y edificios que son síntomas de la fuerte expansión constructiva de los últimos años pero también hay calles antiguas y ricas, es una ciudad muy colorida llena de vida y gente, tiendas, bares, restaurantes, un lugar muy vital y moderno. También es una ciudad multiétnica formada por muchas poblaciones también porque era italiana, húngara, yugoslava y finalmente croata, hay gente de todos los Balcanes y también muchos italianos. Las calles principales son en mi opinión magníficas porque tienen muchos edificios hermosos, con un aspecto casi regio, algunos son oficinas y escuelas pero otros son verdaderos símbolos de la ciudad, las calles más pequeñas en cambio esconden pequeñas sorpresas, coloridos murales y encantadores bistrós y tiendas que venden productos típicos. Ahora os dejo unas fotos y luego vuelvo a hablaros de esta magnífica ciudad, del consulado italiano y de nuestro viaje de regreso por Eslovenia, ¡otro país que me gustaría mucho visitar!

Loved reading about your experience in Rijeka! The mix of ancient and modern architecture is fascinating - the old town's colorful murals and bistros sound like a treasure trove to discover
Sono stato anch'io in Croazia ed è stato uno dei miei viaggi che ricordo sempre con tanta gioia. Bel mare, belle baie e bei paesi... e ottimo cibo (lo stavo dimenticando)
Vero anche se quest' anno veramente troppo costosa!!
