Trieste, Port city in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy

Located at the northeastern edge of Italy, Trieste extends along the Adriatic Sea with a 2-meter elevation from the coastline.

The city remained under Habsburg control from 1382 until 1918, functioning as the principal seaport of the Austrian Empire for international trade.

The intersection of Latin, Germanic, and Slavic cultures in Trieste created a multilingual environment that attracted writers like James Joyce and Italo Svevo.

The Port of Trieste maintains its status as Italy's primary coffee importing hub, processing substantial quantities through its free port facilities.

Strong bora winds regularly sweep through Trieste's streets from the karst plateau, reaching speeds of 150 kilometers per hour.
