Once you pass the City Tower and walk through the old medieval gate and across the old medieval wall that once represented the limits of the town, you enter the Old Town of Rijeka. The Old Town is now one of the loveliest and most interesting places in Rijeka that all tourists are bound to visit.

The Old Town contains the central marketplace, so there are lots of picturesque and vintage stores you can visit and browse through. Although the old houses with markets that once stood on the shore barely exist, there are similar modern versions you can visit.
