The city of Trieste is located in the north east of Italy and lies towards the end of a narrow strip of land between the Adriatic Sea and Slovenia, immediately south and east of Trieste. The city's history has been heavily influenced by its location at the head of the Gulf of Trieste, at the crossroads of Latin, Slavic and German cultures. The city has a number of theatres and has a thriving cultural scene for visitors to enjoy. The theatres in the city include the Opera Teatro Lirico Giuseppe Verdi, Politeama Rossetti, the Slovene Theatre in Trieste, the Teatro La Contrada and the Teatro Miela. A popular attraction in the city is the Castello Miramare which was built between 1856 and 1860 and is located on the waterfront around 8 km from the city. The castle's gardens are open to the public and contain a variety of trees and two ponds, one of which is noted for its swans and the other for its lotus flowers. There is also a Castle annex and a small chapel where a cross made from the remains of the 'Novara' is kept.
The port provides adequate facilities and public conveniences for passengers. The Stazione Marittima passenger terminal has a departures lounge, coffee shop, lavatories, a convenience store and public telephones. Ferry services from the port depart to Pula in Croatia and Igoumenitsa in Greece.
Porec is a Croatian town and the most popular holiday resort in Istria and is frequently voted the top resort in Croatia by the Croatian National Tourist Office. The principal tourist areas in the town are the two bays that lie to the south of the town. They are named Zelena Laguna (Green Lagoon) and Plava Laguna (Blue Lagoon) and are almost like small towns in their own right with their own hotels, camping facilities, a marina and shopping and entertainment areas. There are a number of sights of historical interest to be found in Porec's Old Town which include the 6th century Euphrasian Basilica which is beautifully preserved and is well known for its gold mosaics. The Basilica, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, is in fact a collection of buildings that includes a baptistery and the Bishop's Palace.
Ferry services from the town's port depart to Venice in Italy.
