Trieste (Trieste) is the capital of the autonomous province of Friuli-Venezia Giulia in the north-east of Italy, with a population of 260 thousand people. The city is located in the depths of the Adriatic Sea of Trieste, 145 km east of Venice, near the Slovenian border.
Formerly it was a very powerful center of influence in politics, literature, art and culture under the dominion of Austria-Hungary. Gradually, its importance fell until the end of the 20th century, and today tourists often forget about Trieste, because they are interested in large Italian cities, for example, Rome or Milan. However, Trieste is a magnificent city with a charming and almost East European atmosphere, cozy pubs and cafes, amazing architecture and a beautiful view of the sea.
Trieste's cultural heritage is associated with its single location of the "border city". Here you can find ancient Roman architecture (a small theater near the sea, a beautiful arch to the old town, an interesting Roman museum), buildings of the times of the Austrian Empire (something similar you can find in Vienna) and an amazing mixture of Mediterranean styles, since Trieste was a very important port during the 18th century

Cuisine and restaurants
The traces of the Austrian presence remained in the local architecture and, of course, in the local cuisine. Interestingly, the inhabitants of Trieste practically do not eat anything without horseradish. And it's not some kind of pizza, pasta, little Italian gnocchi gnocchi or tortellini pelmeni. A characteristic feature of Trieste cuisine is pork dishes, that is, something that has a very remote relationship to traditional Italian cuisine.
As a side dish in restaurants and bars, sauerkraut is usually not so typical for Italy. They drink their favorite dishes of local people more often not with wine, but with beer. However, in the first place, it should be mentioned not about wine and not about beer, but about coffee! Only residents of Trieste will be able to catch all the shades of the methods of making coffee, which are very many here
Beaches
In Trieste there is the only still functioning beach in Europe, divided into the male and female halves that the wall (Pedochin)
