Have you planned a trip to Trieste and been looking for some ideas to discover the city on your own? The first thing you need to know is that the city that will be standing in front of you is one with a long and complicated history, a place that was crossed by many a conflict and contended among several different political powers: this is why a tangle of languages, architectural styles and cultural traditions coexist here; and yet, its outlook is orderly, stern even, nothing to do with that of a typical Mediterranean town.
During the Hapsburg reign, the area around Borgo Teresiano underwent a renovation that allowed the city to stretch and expand farther, rationalizing its mobility. Among the canals that cross this area you can really breathe in a very peculiar atmosphere: on one side, the sea with its spectacular sunsets, on the other some of the city’s most impressive religious architectures, such as the Sant’Antonio Nuovo Church and the Orthodox Temple of Saint Spiridione, testimonies of the ancient Roman and Slavic heritages that live side by side in this borderland. Another extremely cinematographic place is Piazza Unità D’Italia, where all the palaces of power stand: one of its four sides overlooks the sea and the promenade of Molo Audace (Audace Pier) welcomes much of the city night life.
Climbing uphill across the city, you will encounter many traces of past eras such as the Roman Theater, the ancient Roman Basilica and the Saint Giusto castle, the main cultural hub in town. Not far away from here is the Saint Giusto Cathedral, notable for the imposing rose window that embellishes its Romanesque-Gothic façade, but more importantly for the Byzantine mosaics inside, whose colors are sparkling bright still today. If you are interested in history and art, Trieste is surely a place for you: alongside with all the monuments and museums mentioned above, we recommend you a visit to the Risiera Di San Sabba, the Revoltella Museum and to Miramare Castle on the other side of the town.
We have just given you a rough idea of all the unmissable places in Trieste, but both in and outside the city there are many more worth a visit. For this reason, a car hire at Trieste railway station can simplify your life by allowing you to plan a much richer journey and one that you can manage with more flexibility and comfort: the Miramare Castle itself can be reached in a much shorter time from the railway station by car than using public transport; from here, you can get out of town and follow your itinerary comprising the most iconic historical, artistic and natural landmarks in and around Trieste.
An example of a route you can follow with your rental car from Trieste could be one encompassing the gorgeous Sistiana Bay, framed by limestone cliffs and crystal clear waters, a true paradise for sea and water sports lovers. In the mainland, you could visit hamlets such as those in the Karst region, like Muggia and Duino, characterized by narrow pebbled alleys and beguiling historical edifices.
Here also stretch Trieste’s nature and wildlife areas that include a series of amazing grottos filled with stalactites and stalagmites. Moreover, there are many hiking trails departing from here and reaching breathtaking viewpoints and fascinating natural sites, such as the Škocjan Caves with their impressive calcareous formations. Another must-see destination is the Natural Reserve of Val Rosandra with its steep gorges and waterfalls plunging into lavish greenery.
With its richness of historical, artistic and natural landmarks, the province of Trieste indeed offers a thorough and unforgettable travel experience.
