Cruises visiting Trieste (Italy)

Nestled in North-Eastern Italy, Trieste is a quiet little town that time seems to have forgotten. In the past the main port for the Austro-Hungarian Empire and a meeting point between the East and the West, it has managed to shape a personality of its very own over the centuries, in a unique setting between the whiteness of the karstic landscapes and the blue of the Adriatic. Constructed by the Romans in the 1^st century BC, it has preserved important ancient ruins from this epoch, which now mingle with many Neo-Classical and Viennese palaces, as well as elegantly decorated cafés. Discover the hidden treasures of this town with such a particular atmosphere, a source of inspiration for Jules Verne who wrote his famous novel Mathias Sandorf here.
