croisbeauty Says: Corso Vittorio Emanuelle II is the real heart of Pordenone, its old core where the most major sites could be seen. It is also the main city promenade, street where most of the cafe-bars and restaurants could be found and finally, it is the commercial heart of this small...
croisbeauty Says: Palazzo Ricchieri, situated right opposite to the Palazzo Comunale, is certainly one of the most beautiful medieval buildings in the town of Pordenone. It is one of the oldest buildings in the town built in the 12th century. Originally, the palace was much smaller building,...
croisbeauty Says: Palazzo Comunale, also known as Loggia del Municipio, is very original building built in Gothic style in between 1291 to 1395. Actually, the ground floor has three Gothic arches, while the loggia, the clock tower and the pinacles were added later on in the 16th century. The...
Chiesa della Santissima Trinita
croisbeauty Says: The 16th century church of Santissima Trinita is situated outside the old core of the town, just about hundred meters away from Piazza San Marco across the bridge of the river Noncello. This eight-sided massive building, designed by Ippolito Marone, was completely built with...

Trattoria Al Faro: Great local food and great view!
Classic73 Says: Visiting Pordenone on business, our hosts brought us up into the foothills of the Dolomites to this family-run gem to try some local specialities, and as usual, the locals know which restaurants serve the good stuff! The closeness of Austria is evident, as this place,...
Trattoria Al Lido: World class seafood at ridiculous prices!
Classic73 Says: I visited Pordenone on business, and was brought to this restaurant by our Italian hosts for an evening meal. As always, trust the locals to know where the best food is to be had! This restaurant is fairly new, and run by a group of young people keen to show off their skills...
Deposito Giordani: Renovated Bus Depot
coneyislandgreen Says: A nice big music venue in Pordenone. It used to be a depot but has been renovated with a Modern style. The DJ booth is an old Volks Wagon bus, there are two bars and a seating area with tables. The lights are giant soft lit spheres and the stage floor is spacious. This is...
fullflip Says: Like a big warehouse. Nice place to play pool anyways. Some pretty girls from all over Europe. Some speak English some don't. I'm sorry but 50 Euro is just too much to pay for a lap dance but it's a nice place. The drinks are pretty cheap and the pool table is nice. You can...
The otherwise unimpressive town of Pordenone hides a beautiful old-town main street, Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, with a wealth of fashion shops for all budgets, although mainly for the bigger ones! Cozy cafés and restaurants line the street as well, so when your feet ache from all the walking there's never far to the nearest cup of espresso or birra alla spina.
What to buy: Lots of different italian fashion brands, both world famous and more local.
What to pay: All budgets, but mainly at the pricey end - shoes at 300+ euros are not uncommon.

Address: Corso Vittorio Emanuele II
Helpfulness
Favorite thing: Pordenone was already inhabited before the 10th century, which is attested to by the necropolis that was recently brought to light under the Palazzo Ricchieri. In the 12th century the city started significant development of the commercial activities of the port on the river Noncello from which it gets its name - Portus Naonis.
