EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a ferry boat docking at Molo, the picturesque waterfront of Opatija, Croatia. Dated circa 1904, this photograph transports us to an era of grace and elegance, as the Italian Riviera of the Adriatic Coast was a popular destination for European nobility and aristocrats. Located just southwest of Rijeka, Opatija was a renowned health resort town, famous for its mild climate, beautiful landscapes, and therapeutic mud baths. The town's name, Abbazia, comes from the Benedictine Abbey that once stood there. Molo, the town's main dock, was the heart of Opatija's maritime activity. This photograph captures the bustling scene of a ferry boat arriving at the dock, bringing travelers from nearby towns and islands. The intricate design of the boat, with its tall, ornate smokestack and elegant lines, reflects the sophistication of the era. As you gaze at this image, you can almost hear the gentle lapping of the waves against the shore, feel the cool sea breeze in your hair, and smell the salty air. The vibrant colors of the buildings along the waterfront, the clear blue waters of the Adriatic Sea, and the lush greenery of the surrounding hills create a breathtaking tableau that remains unchanged to this day. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and timeless beauty of Opatija, a place where the past and present converge to create a unique and enchanting destination. Whether you are a history buff, a nature lover, or simply someone in search of a peaceful retreat, Opatija is a must-visit destination that promises to leave a lasting impression.
