But, we ended up having about 24 hours to spend in this beautiful city, so we decided to make the most of it! Trieste, Italy is located on the very far northeastern part of the country, near the border of Slovenia. It was actually a part of the old Austro-Hungarian Empire up until 1918, and was a jewel and fourth largest city of the Hapsburg Monarchy. The city has always been an important center for trade, given its location directly on the Adriatic Sea, and it has been fought over by many world powers. When we arrived we had a list of places that we wanted to see. We settled into our hotel, and then set out on our little Trieste adventure. We first saw the beautiful and serene Giant's Staircase, a large stone set of stairs that lead up the side of the mountain. We followed these steps until we reached one of our first stops, the Remembrance Park (Parco della Rimembranza). Here we stopped to pay our respects to the hundreds of men who died in World War I (to which the park was dedicated), and World War II. It is a beautiful park, with large trees that were planted for each man killed in the war, and it overlooks the beautiful valley where the northern part of Trieste lies. From there, we made our way over to the Castello di San Guisto, which sits high on the same hill as the Remembrance Park. This fortress started being built in the 15th century and was finished in the 17th century, overlooking the three sides of Trieste, the north, the port, and the south. It never really saw any military action, so the fort is very well preserved, and visitors can actually go inside and see many of the old quarters and the museum that was built there. There are sometimes even events that take place here, such as concerts. On the same hill is the Trieste Cathedral, or the Basilica cattedrale di San Giusto Martire. This cathedral dates back to the 14th century and is a beautiful example of stonework and the building methods of the time. It actually stands on top of an old Roman temple that used to be part of the forum that also stands on this hill. This Roman forum that sits here is a great exemplification of how important this city was to the ancient Roman peoples. And this forum is amazing to see. You have to check it out if you come here! Making our way down from the hill, we stopped to see the Arco di Riccardo, an old Roman stone archway that is believed to be one of the old gates of the city, though nobody really knows what it used to be or why just this one archway survived. It stands among the modern buildings, so the juxtaposition here is astounding. From there we also saw another example of the city's ancient past, the Teatro Romano, or the Roman Theatre. This theatre was once outside the city walls and looked right down onto the sea, giving the viewers there a wonderful scenic view while they watched their plays and listened to presentations. This theatre is incredibly well-preserved, and it seems very small but actually used to hold over 6,000 people! From there, we ventured out toward the sea and saw the beautiful Piazza Unita d'Italia, or the Unity Plaza of Italy, which is a huge open area that stands with government buildings all around with one side open to the sea. We also saw the Grand Canal, which is a peaceful spot full of shops, restaurants, and other piazzas. Trieste, Italy is a wonderful and peaceful place to visit. Not to mention the natural beauty that stands all around on the northernmost coast of the Adriatic Sea. If you are going to visit Italy, we strongly recommend that you take the 2 hour train ride from Venice and enjoy some time in Trieste. It truly is a jewel on the Adriatic.
