TRIESTE
Trieste has loads of accommodation but the best, cheapest and most central is the Opera Figli del Popolo, Via dell’ Università, Trieste. The Opera Building is in the very center. To reserve a bed, send them an email at booking@ofpts.it. They will reply (it takes a while) and will put all the Peacewalkers together. NB: Please pay when you arrive & check-in! There is so much to explore and see in the city of Trieste: layers of history, restaurants, cafes, culture and of course the sea promenade. Check out the main tourism office on the Piazza Unità d’Italia for info, as well as this mini-Guide booklet. If you have time, Trieste City has a summer ferry service that has scheduled services along the coast. You can sail up to Miramare castle & Grignano or even sail across the bay to the beaches and charming village of Grado. Cities to visit after the European Peace Walk! With Venice just across the bay, and Piran, SLO and Rovinj & Pula, CRT and the beaches of Istria to the South, Trieste is a perfect location to rest your feet and decide what to do after your European Peace Walk. The Istria peninsula is simply fantastic and well worth exploring. Also, in the summer there are boats from Piran, Rovinj and Pula going across to Venice. If mountains are more to your flavor, north from Trieste are the very unique cities of Palmanova and Udine: beautiful and peaceful, without mass tourism. VENICE: Trains run many times day from the centre of Trieste to Venice. http://www.trenitalia.com/ Cost 11euros one-way. NB: You must validate your ticket ! ISTRIA: Trieste Bus Station has buses going everywhere: http://www.autostazionetrieste.it/ |
