Trieste is an Italian city on the border with Slovenia, shaped by a profound Habsburg legacy that sets it apart from every other city in Italy. A captivating blend of Viennese elegance, Adriatic coastline, and Mediterranean rhythm gives it a truly one-of-a-kind atmosphere — Piazza Unità d'Italia is the largest seafront square in Europe, while the romantic Miramare Castle rising from the water's edge looks as though it stepped straight out of a fairy tale. Trieste is also a shrine to Italian espresso culture (home of Illy) and an ideal base for exploring the northern Adriatic.

Everything you need for Trieste in one place

It serves as the central gathering place of the city and one of the most recognizable locations in Trieste. The evening lighting and the view over the bay make it particularly popular among visitors.
A 14th-century Roman Catholic cathedral formed by merging two earlier churches, dedicated to the patron saint of Trieste, Saint Justus. The interior is adorned with exceptional Byzantine mosaics dating from the 12th century. It is located on the hill of San Giusto, which offers a panoramic view of the city and the bay.
