Arco di Riccardo, Roman arch in Città Vecchia, Trieste, Italy.
The Arco di Riccardo stands 23 feet tall and 17 feet wide, constructed from white stone in the ancient district of Trieste.
Built between 33 and 32 BC, this arch served as one of the entrance gates to Roman Tergeste and remains the last section of city walls.
The structure connects to multiple name origin theories, from King Richard I of England to the Roman road planning term 'cardo'.
Visitors can explore the arch at any time, with evening hours providing different lighting perspectives of the ancient stone structure.
The eastern section of the arch integrates into a modern building, displaying the evolution of urban architecture through two millennia.
