Opatija, which literally means Abbey, gets its name from an abbey Benedictine monks established there in the late Middle Ages. The abbey still stands in Saint James’s Park and is rightfully considered one of the most famous historical pieces in Croatia. Opatija is a popular tourist destination filled with beautiful beaches, wonderful scenery and warm climate which offers many health benefits. If you visit Opatija, then you’ll want to see the Maiden with the Seagull statue, also known as the Nymph, the most popular symbol of Opatija. And if you’re a nature lover, go for a hike on Mount Učka. Opatija offers beautiful scenery too so when you’re going for a relaxing walk, be sure to walk the Lungomare. Lungomare is the favourite walking path for both locals and tourists, and it will be even better for you if you’re a photographer or a painter because the view from Lungomare serves as an inspiration for artists!
