We caught the train to Trieste and have been here for the past two nights. We have never been here before and gave enjoyed our stay. There are fewer tourists and the local people seem to be more relaxed
There is a lot of public open space - piazzas, open areas around the port and sea front and also small winding roads. Parts of the city are very much like Vienna or Torino with the style of public buildings, piazzas and cafe culture, but it is also distinctly Italian . We have spent the past few days walking around all over the city and sampling many delicious local foods. The restaurants are probably even more seafood oriented than Venice.
