4.5416665 from partner siteTrieste, gorgeous seaside scenery, castles, caves and of course the city itself. Nestled in Italy’s northeast corner, embraced by green hills in one and the Mediterranean sea on the other with the snow capped Dolomites to the north. No city can claim to have a more majestic setting in an unique position between Latin, Germanic and Slavic lands. Trieste is unlike any other city in Europe.
