Description
Join me on this live-streamed, interactive Online Experience in the heart of Rijeka, and together we will learn about the history and culture of the city while strolling around Trsat, a picturesque neighbourhood perched on a hill that overlooks the city center. Our "village in the city", Trsat, is a small, quiet world of its own that offers spectacular views over the sea, the islands, the mountains, and the rest of Rijeka.
As we walk around, you will discover why Trsat is considered an oasis by the inhabitants of Rijeka. We will begin with visits to two of its most renowned sights: the Church of Our Lady of Trsat, which attracts thousands of pilgrims year after year, and the majestic Trsat Castle, which has been standing tall since the 13th century. Then, we will make our way to the oldest fortifications in the Croatian Littoral region, which has been watching over Rijeka since ancient Roman times. Here you will get a chance to meet the castle's most famous resident and will surely be surprised to see a very famous automobile logo inside this medieval fortress!
As we explore, I will also tell you some interesting historical trivia, such as about the most prominent and famous pilgrim to have come to visit Trsat. We will also explore the connection between Trsat and Nazareth.
This small part of Rijeka truly has a lot to offer - I hope to show you around it soon!
