    A cold winter night in
    Trieste

    Beware of the Bora! The winds that sweep through here can literally knock you over. I have no balance problems whatsoever, yet I almost fell to the ground a few times because of the gusts. It is imperative in the cold weather days of the fall and winter, that you have a warm jacket, preferably one that is impervious to wind.

    With as beautiful as Trieste is, bring enough film!

    • If you need to bring a lot of luggage, therefore you are considering using buses to reach your accomodation, be aware that some buses (especially lines 24 and 30) are very small, while the buses running on the main lines (numbers 1, 17, 17/ and others) are always overcrowded and you may have problems to get off the bus. So, if you are not travelling alone, you'd better bring two or more small cases instead of a big one.

    It is impossible to give general advice on clothes in Trieste, since the weather can rapidly change. Before getting there, you should have a look at the forecast to be sure you won't find bora. When it isn't windy, it can be quite hot, not only in summer but also in spring.
    From my personal experience, I warmly suggest you should not bring a portable umbrella in case of rain, because it rarely rains without wind and bora destroyed at least two of my little umbrellas. So, you can either bring a big umbrella or walk under the rain (I did that some times from the railway station to my apartment, which is two kms far).
    That said, you'd better put both warm and light clothes into your suitcase if you visit Trieste in spring or in autumn. Wear comfortable shoes because the best means of transport to visit the city centre will be your feet.

    Bring a good camera with many film rolls or with a good memory in case you have a digital one. You will find much more to photograph than you think.

    If you visit Trieste on a winter week-end, bring something to eat from home, since you will hardly find an open restaurant in the centre or along the sea.
