Austrian Riviera
The Austrian Riviera (German: Österreichische Riviera, Italian: Riviera Austriaca, Slovene: Avstrijska riviera, Croatian: Austrijska rivijera) was a term used for advertising the seaside resorts on the Adriatic coast of the Austrian crown lands of Gorizia and Istria. The name arose with the emergence of tourism in the Austrian Littoral from the mid 19th century onwards and was common until the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the end of World War I. The Riviera covered the coastal areas centered around the Imperial Free City of Trieste and its port, it stretched from Grado via Duino, Brijuni to Opatija and the border with the Habsburg Kingdom of Croatia.
