Great job! Just one note: the Grotta Gigante is the largest tourist cavity in the world, not just in Italy. The plateau around Trieste gives its name to karst phenomena. (There are thousands of caves in the Karst, but you need helmets and ropes for most of them, and many can only be explored by experts)
Hi from Muggia (near Trieste)! What a nice video! It sucks you got sick and couldn't properly finish your tour here! There's so much to see and many places to go. but you've seen a lot already, that's great. The buildings in the center of Trieste are from the era when we were under Austrungaric empire, that's why they feel very nordic. during summer the roman amphitheatre hosts plays and events under the stars. Pretty awesome! The S. Giusto Church was modified many times during the centuries and at one point was actually two churches. That's wild! The S. giusto castle? I've actually sang there, in a Queen tribute band. It's was epic: 2000 people jumping around. Every summer there's concerts over there. If you're looking to come back, I can take you to an osmiza. Osmizas are open cantinas where you'll taste local wine while eating some prosciutto, cheese,...Pizza at Trieste is often not all that good, but there are a few places that are awesome...but you've got to know... Trieste is the town of Illy caffé. It's is a very famous and somewhat expensive coffee. In Trieste there are countless ways to serve coffee. What you had over there was a "Cappo in B", probably the most famous one. Cappo is short for cappuccino, which is an espresso with some milk foam. the B stands for bicchiere (glass) and that's how it's served. I always hate the Cappo in B because the glass heats up too much...but I guess that works in Trieste since it can get very cold here so people will feel good with a cappo in B see ya!
@@vernonandmaryana I would love to see that vid.. We are going to meet out cousins there next summer. My family just discovered we have over 12 cousins in Vittorio Venito.
il connubio Trieste-caffé è per via del porto. Fin dall'ottocento il caffé arriva dai paesi d'origine e viene distribuito in Europa principalmente attraverso il porto di Trieste. Si è sviluppata un'industria di torrefazione e commercio, tra cui i marchi Illy e Hausbrandt... e ovviamente il caffé è da sempre una bevanda molto amata e consumata in città (curiosità: i triestini sono in vetta alle classifiche di consumo di caffé procapite in Italia... 10kg all'anno contro una media nazionale di 5kg)
We know that Turin is known for the birthplace of Italian cinema, home of the Fiat, architecture, specialty chocolate. I didn’t hear much about coffee though. A lot of cities here in Italy have an excellent coffee culture though.
Trieste, like Gorizia, had been part of the Austrian empire till the end of WW1. So architecture, life, traditions, food reflect the Austrian culture, with strong Slavic influences..
@@M.C.K.111 Architecture, life, traditions, food reflect ALSO the Austrian culture (which is not such a mediterranean culture…).Technically Trieste used to be one of the Italian spots of the Austrian Empire. There was an empire in Trieste, not a country, likewise all the mediterranean versant of the Alps, where people used to naturally speak Italian before the formation of Italy as a nation.
@@giovannimoriggi5833 scusami ma per una mezza gorizia a e mezza triestina ti posso assicurare che in qs zone per molti l'italiano era una seconda lingua... A casa di mia mamma si parlava solo sloveno e friulano, lei ha imparato l'italiano all'asilo. Mio padre parlava tedesco con sua mamma e italiano con il papà, mentre parlava ungherese con la nonna paterna.. Città di confine!!
Trst is a Slovenian, not an Italian city, always was. Trst means a kind of swamp cane that grows there in slovene; it means absolutely nothing in italian, it is just an italianization of the slovenian name. It was just somehow stolen in the peace treaty after ww2, a war that Italy lost and despite the fact that slovenian partisans liberated the city from fascists and held it until the end of the war. TRST JE NAŠ!
Wanna talk about Istria, Dalmazia and most of the other ex-Yugoslavian shore? That’s all part of the Venetian republic way before Yugoslavia even existed and Yugoslavia existed just for a very short time in history.
@@daniele605 yes, and the Celts existed way before that and one of their most important strongholds was in Novo mesto, Slovenia (7 out of the 11 situlae found worldwide were found in Novo mesto) and they smoked the preexisting italian tribes... So what exactlly is your point?
@@pero2727 my point is tbat borders and nations always change, and sincerely I don’t give a shit about, saying that, smoke Italians? Italy existed for just a century, we were just a collection of kingdoms/republics fighting each other in the past, and anyway there’s so much in Italy now that it’s even hard to count and Trieste wouldn’t really make a difference. Ask Triestini if they feel to be Slovenians 😄
Ah really, Trst is not derived from Trieste, vulgarization of the roman Tergeste? Trieste was never a Slovenian city: it had a Slovenian minority, even with the falsified censuses under the Austrians the Slovenian NEVER reached more than 40% of the populaiton. Stop spreading austroslavic propaganda, the Hapsburgs used you as meatfodder with lies and you still follow their idiocy.
Have you visited this beautiful city?
So true. Just leaving Trieste today. Beach city. A Gem.

Hello, love all of your content!! Have you ever been to Vittorio Veneto?
We went back in 2018, we want to go back and include it in a video.

@@daveo_cardfarmer2078Wow! That will be an amazing reunion.
A Trieste c'è "Illy caffè", un marchio prestigioso. Per questo motivo c'è spesso il connubio Trieste e caffè.

Sorry, but the coffee capital is Turin with the oldest and most elegant cafes, it's also the place where they invented the espresso coffee machine.
We know that Turin is known for the birthplace of Italian cinema, home of the Fiat, architecture, specialty chocolate. I didn’t hear much about coffee though. A lot of cities here in Italy have an excellent coffee culture though.
È il mercato nazionale di riferimento del caffè grazie ai flussi commerciali del porto di Trieste. E comunque è per esempio la culla di Illy caffè....

Trieste? Yeah ok, just don't live there. You'll be thoroughly disappointed.
