Abstract
Port cities are having different spatial structure than those located inlands. As a result of their seaside location, they face specific administrative and functional problems on a daily basis. In the economic and settlement structure of the country, they usually play the role of a "gate" through which streams of cargo are distributed further over the whole hinterland. It is the transport and logistics function of port cities, as well as the water bodies located in their area, that determine their spatial character to the greatest extent. The configuration of the two above-mentioned factors, together with other development conditions, determines the model of spatial changes taking place in port cities. Additionally, evolving shipping technologies affect the contemporary development of the ports’ and port cities’ spatial structure.
