Its modern development began in the late 19th century with appearance of first health resorts. In the early 20th century, it became one of the grandest seaside resorts in Central Europe, along with Opatija, Lido and Grado, then as part of the Austrian Littoral. It is now one of the country's major tourist areas. Located in the centre is the Hotel Palace, once one of the most important resorts for the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, and one of the finest hotels between Venice and Dubrovnik.
