Bus from UŽICE to RIJEKA

About the station UŽICE

In the basin of the Đetinja River, bordered by the peaks of Tara, Maljen and Zlatibor, below the remains of a medieval fortress, lies the city of Užice, the center of the Zlatibor District, where more than 70 thousand people live today. Užice is a regional center of culture, tourism, metal and mechanical industry and fruit growing. This hilly and mountainous region is dominated by forests, and the highest peak, Tornik, is located on Mount Zlatibor. The highway from Belgrade to the coast passes through Zlatibor, and direct bus lines have been established with Belgrade, Novi Sad and other cities. The Belgrade - Bar railway line also passes through the city, and bus lines are also well connected with surrounding cities.

Užice is an area that uniquely combines modern and traditional, original cultural flows and traditional life from the past.

The first reliable mention of the city was found in a document from the Dubrovnik Archives dated October 9, 1329.

In the 16th century, Užice was the center of a district and a kadiluk, and during the 17th century it became an important craft and cultural center.

In the very center of Užice, on St. Sava Square, the famous Jokanović House rests on wooden pillars. Built a long time ago, but renovated in the last decade and transformed into a museum exhibit, which with its appearance, furniture and beauty depicts bourgeois life in Užice at the end of the 19th century.

Užice offers a number of the best restaurants that serve very tasty and affordable food, mainly from traditional cuisine. Most of these restaurants are located in a pleasant environment, on the banks of the Đetinja River and next to Užice's conifers and mountainous areas.

Special attention is paid to rural tourism, which, combined with the wealth of flora, water and clean air, makes this area wonderfully unified. Tourism has been flourishing for decades, and the Tara National Park, Zlatibor Nature Park and Mokra Gora have contributed greatly to this.

About the destination RIJEKA

Rijeka is the principal seaport and the third-largest city in Croatia (after Zagreb and Split). It is located on Kvarner Bay, an inlet of the Adriatic Sea and has a population of 190,000 inhabitants. Because of its strategic position and its excellent deep-water port, the city was fiercely contested, especially among Italy, Hungary (serving as the Kingdom of Hungary's largest and most important port), and Croatia, changing hands and demographics many times over centuries. The city's economy largely depends on shipbuilding and maritime transport. Rijeka hosts the Croatian National Theatre Ivan pl. Zajc, first built in 1765, as well as the University of Rijeka, founded in 1973 but with roots dating back to 1632 School of Theology. Rijeka has efficient road connections to other parts of Croatia and neighbouring countries. The A6 motorway connects Rijeka to Zagreb via the A1, while the A7 motorway, completed in 2004, links Rijeka with Ljubljana, Slovenia, via Ilirska Bistrica and with Trieste, Italy. The A7 acts as the Rijeka bypass motorway and facilitates access to the A8 motorway of the Istrian Y network starting with the Učka Tunnel, and linking Rijeka with Istria.
