Last year, Split opened RIVA, a controversial modern square/waterfront in front of the old palace. I thought it looked awesome:

Thanks for the great pics! It's nice to see the new Riva since I haven't been to Split for years and I'm glad to see you went to Zagreb, where I visit far more often, since it's underrated as a tourist destination.
 
Many thanks for the amazing pics! My family recently purchased a small vacation home in Croatia on the coast (south of Rijeka) - can't wait to go back!
 
I had no idea Croatia was such a beautiful place... thanks for the pics.

The old parts are great as is the geography. The commie blocks not so much.
 
We skipped Rijeka on our way up the Dalmatian coast.

Thanks for the comments on the pictures. Taking them was a lot of fun.
 
Rijeka's pretty cool - very Hapsburgy, it's not as 'pretty' as say the old Town of Split or Dubrovnik, but it is worth spending a day and just meandering around. My next trip to Croatia will probably be through there again as I want to see Istria (to the west) which takes in Opatija & Pula to name a few.

Pula and Opatija are definitely worth visiting. Don't miss Rovinj either!
