    Beautiful square, beautiful view of the Adriatic Sea. Interesting historical sights that have been preserved. Beautiful cultural monuments and beautiful cafes with perfect coffee. The square is located on the coast and be sure to visit when the road takes you to Trieste. Parking is located nearby. All recommendations for this place.!!!
  • By Cvijetin Lazarevic
    Beautiful square. It is often said to be Europe's largest square located next to the sea. The square was built during the period when Trieste was the most important seaport of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire and includes the city's municipal buildings and other important palaces. You should visit Caffe San Marco – a magnificent place, well known to both tourists and residents
