Rijeka Crnojevića

Stories of a Bridge

Today, Rijeka Crnojevića is a tourist destination where you will find a rich offer of restaurants and hotels with specialties of traditional national cuisine and an exceptional selection of local wines.

And if only bridges could talk. Maybe all writers in the world could go silent if bridges decide to speak.

I wonder what are all of those stories that bridges could tell us about events where they were silent and proud witnesses. And we know them as a magnificent structures that are here to erase void. To connect. To enable.

One of those bridges that would have a lot to say is The Old Bridge on Rijeka Crnojevića. For many, it is enough when you say The Old Bridge and they will know for sure which one is it, but many also know it as a Danilo’s bridge.

    Notes about Rijeka

    We have arrived in Rijeka Crnojevića on a market day. Town shore was very lively. In shade of old oak tree, on benches or on pieces of harsh cloth there are different fruits, fish, meat, materials, spoons, brushes, tobacco, sweets, nails, jewelry and other things. Near water there was little boats that locals calls londra and they are pretty specific: they are unusually long and narrow with high nose and mast, without tier seat inside. Boats are very neap. In nowdays, every Sunday and Tuesday there is steam boat Danica that sails off at 9 AM and goes to Skadar for five and a half hours. Return trip is every Monday and Wednesday also from 9 AM.
