Life in Trieste



Although many young people don’t like Trieste because it’s small and a bit boring , adults love it because , unlike other cities, it isn’t chaotic and noisy but very “calm”. Tourists visit Trieste because of it’s history and because of its architecture. Trieste was the main port of Austro-Hungarian empire and the typical Austrian neoclassical architecture is still visible in many buildings. Also, tourists visit Trieste because they want to visit the Carso which is a wonderful area where the air is fresh and clean. Other tourists attractions are the various castles ( the one of Miramare for example) and the small but interesting museums that can be found in the city center. People also visit Trieste to assist to the Barcolana, a “boat race” that takes place in Trieste’s dark blue sea. Another very beautiful place where many tourists go is the Val Rosandra , a spectacular valley with wonderful waterfalls and an ancient roman aqueduct. There are so many places and things to visit here, far too many to list…


In conclusion, Trieste is a small city with many cultural and artistic attractions , a beautiful sea, a perfect place for nature lovers ( the Carso), and the Torri D’Europa , a super cool shopping mall!!
