I highly recommend this nice and small region of Italy, ( I was born here), because it is rich of archaelogical artifacts,which the ancient romans left here as interesting traces of their existence.
In Cividale and Grado there are famous paleochristian architectural examples of Byzantine style.The regional capital is Trieste which holds an important collection of sculptural and pictorial works, the Civic Museum of Risorgimento is an interesting place where you can find traces of struggle of the city's for freedom.Gorizia is also interesting for its prehistoric castle, the symbol of the city's,the Cathedral Duomo recorded for the first time in a document dated 1296, but Gorizia is mainly mentioned for division of the city by the Italo-Slovenian border. Enchanting landscapes in this region are dotted with vineyards and castles and Roman ruins.Delicious foods and prestigious wine attract more and more number of tourists.
My preferred seaside resort is Grado where you can enjoy characteristics of ancient times with modern attractions in a hospitable atmosphere. The "Canevon" restaurant, located in the oldest part of this island, offers the best of Grado's cooking.
