トリエステの展望台

Viewpoints and Peaks

This collection highlights the diverse topography surrounding the Gulf of Trieste, ranging from the historic 246-meter Molo Audace pier to the limestone heights of the Karst Plateau. It includes specialized 'vedette' (lookout towers) like the 19th-century Liburnia, prehistoric sites such as the Castelliere di Slivia, and the rugged glacial scenery of Val Rosandra. These locations provide distinct perspectives on the Adriatic coastline, the Istrian peninsula, and the Julian Alps.
