They love to enjoy all the &#8220;Dolce Vita&#8221; opportunities offered by their historical city located between the Adriatic Sea and the kartic plateau, on the border with Slovenia.<\/p>\n<h3>2.

James Joyce lived here for more than 12 years. Last but not least, Piazza Unit\u00e0 d&#8217;Italia is the largest square in Europe facing the sea and, when the weather allows it, you can see the magnificent Alps set on the gulf of the city. A perfect combination! The waves of the Adriatic touch the only open side of the square (over 12.000 square meters), while on the other three elegant buildings rise as a reminder that the city was once the seaside outpost of the Habsburg Empire. And what about Baron Revoltella\u2019s secret used to check merchant vessels reaching the port of Trieste? I suggest you to visit the Revoltella Museum, an important modern art gallery.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Question: Share some aspect of what Trieste has contributed to the world.<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8573\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8573\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8573\" src=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Caff\u00e8-San-Marco.jpg\" alt=\"Caf\u00e8 San Marco\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Caff\u00e8-San-Marco.jpg 850w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Caff\u00e8-San-Marco-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Caff\u00e8-San-Marco-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Caff\u00e8-San-Marco-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8573\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo credit: PromoTurismoFVG<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Answer:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trieste is also the city of coffee. With its elegant Viennese-inspired historical caf\u00e9s and considering the amount of cups consumed in the bars, Trieste and its port have undoubtedly contributed to the spread of coffee culture all over the world. In the city the ritual of coffee is that popular that a specific vocabulary dedicated to order it has developed in time: try to ask for a &#8220;capo in B&#8221; or a &#8220;gocciato&#8221;! There is something interesting at all levels: you can make guided tastings of various blends or learn how to prepare the perfect espresso attending the only master class in the world that trains experts. Moreover the city has also contributed to the world as a hub for science thanks to all the research organizations and institutes in the city. This made possible that the city was finally selected to host the EuroScience Open Forum, the most important European event dedicated to science, technology, society and policy. The event will take place from 4 to 10 July 2020.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8574\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8574\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8574\" src=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Miramare-Castle.jpg\" alt=\"Miramare Castle\" width=\"850\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Miramare-Castle.jpg 850w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Miramare-Castle-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Miramare-Castle-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelingboy.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Miramare-Castle-768x510.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8574\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo credit: PromoTurismoFVG<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Triestini are brave people: they sunbathe from February to the last sunburst in November!
