'Unsung' Trieste
 

Yes I felt the same way - Trieste way unsung after my visit there a few years back - totally unique place due to it being in Austria at times and Italy at times and Croatia just a tad south - nice seafront - the old wooden buildings of the old town on the hill marvelously restored, etc. antique tram to Villa Opicina (sp?), etc.

Great food, great pastries, great coffee, great dynamic in Trieste. I can't wait to go back.

DH and I made it a day train trip from Venice and visited Castello di Miramare and strolled around the piazza unita and harbor area. A lovely city but we could find no gelato!

Ah the coffee in the train station - not only Cappuccino but strong Austrian coffee and cakes as well.

I had dinner tonight with a gentleman from Trieste. It's now on my list.
