About this experience
Trieste is the capital of the Italian region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, frequented only by seasoned travelers. Visitors are always surprised by how interesting and multifaceted this city is. I will share its journey from a Roman port to a major trade center of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, its historical ownership by different countries, and how history is reflected in its architectural appearance.

During 2.5 hours, you will:
- Visit the main squares of the city: Stock Exchange and Unity of Italy
- Admire majestic palaces and elegant modern-style houses
- Stroll through the Ponte Rosso district with Greek and Serbian Orthodox churches
- See the statue of the world-famous writer and discover his connection to Trieste
- Discover a Roman arena in the Jewish quarter
- Climb to the San Giusto Castle on the hill and enjoy magnificent views
Additionally, I will show you the oldest local temple, a monument to one of the Habsburgs, and a former wine warehouse in the port.
