The Franz Josef I Promenade, Opatija’s coastal road, was built at the beginning of the 19th century, and along its entire length grow several species of oak, the oldest inhabitants of Liburnia. Here you can admire some of the most beautiful specimens of these centuries-old trees, such as the downy oak, the zera oak and the cork oak. It is very rare to find so many oak species near the sea. The oak in front of you is a subspecies of the holm oak (Quercus ilex). It is an integral part of the natural and cultural heritage of this region, blending perfectly with the architecture of the area and thus protecting nature and man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
