Monumento ai Caduti di Trieste
Next to the cathedral, the Roman Forum and the fortress lies the war memorial for those who fell in the First World War.

Jazzin Trieste
To round off the visit, enjoy a gelato at Jazzin. The gelateria has been awarded 2 coni by Gambero Rosso.
https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...6cc3d7fd60.jpg I really liked the gelato. Creamy and delicious. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...e62093c08d.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...709c7bda97.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...c2fb615a2e.jpg |

Tivoli Portopiccolo
In the evening, we went back for dinner. This time, we were the only guests, and the atmosphere reflected that.

Aquileia Piazza Capitolo
We went to Aquilila, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. First, we got an overview of Piazza Capitolo with the Basilica, the Baptistery and the Campanile.
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...c7a44cc1d0.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...9f51e5765f.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...e8452540b3.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...db4a601d7e.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...1c844ede93.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...618975b880.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...9ef4a16892.jpg |
Aquileila Battistero
Let's start in the baptistery.
https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...da380b55e3.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...c3dabf5115.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...e034870d57.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...5e2c424e8b.jpg The south hall is directly connected. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...6449169498.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...e70e7ced76.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...7429b3db85.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...7aa5205134.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...38d152a070.jpg |
Basilica Aquileia
The showpiece is undoubtedly the basilica itself, where the famous mosaic floor was uncovered in 1909 under Bishop Poppo (if you can call your child that). Nowadays, the church is hardly usable, but it does have a magnificent floor.
