Spring in Opatija
Did you know that the ancient Romans celebrated the arrival of spring as the first day of a new year, and that before them the Celts celebrated the first day of spring as the resurrection of the Sun? No wonder! Spring really has a great deal of mysticism around it, which is hidden in the beauty of birth, blooming and awakening of nature. This is attested to by an interesting fact related to the famous Stonehenge, around which druids and pagans used to gather in the early morning hours on the twentieth day of March, to celebrate the spring equinox and watch the sun rise precisely above a specific stone. This tradition has been preserved right up to the present day, and can be seen on this short
video.
Kvarner and Opatija are heralds of spring!
We can say with certainty that Kvarner and Opatija, alongside flowers and trees, are messengers of spring!
