TriesteNewest Review: ... out by an architect of this city, as Castle is well preserved and also from inside. Another symbol of Trieste is the cathedral of San Giusto, this is interesting for the visit, but another place worth visiting is the famous Roman theatre and I think it is worthwhile to go.

Jason and the Argonauts were said to have stopped in Trieste in the hunt for the Golden Fleece.
