 Palazzo Antonini Belgrado by Mikebond This palace dates back to the 17th century and today hosts the provincial administration, as well as some faculties of the Udine University. One can see inside frescoes by Giulio Quaglio (end of 17th century), but I didn't go in, because I was going to the castle and hadn't got much time. Leave a Comment

 Udine street by Mikebond How nice this narrow street is! It certainly reminds you of the Venetian calli (the typical streets of Venezia). No wonder of that! Leave a Comment

 Prosciutto!!! by sierralyndon North-west of Udine is the small town of San Daniele del Friuli. The biggest draw here is its world famous cured ham - Prosciutto di San Daniele. Its big rival is prosciutto from Parma (parma ham). San Daniele is filled with numerous prosciutto factories producing thousands and thousands of legs of ham. The best time to go is on the last weekend of August, when the town holds the annual prosciutto festival. The town turns into a giant canteen with long tables and seats in every piazza. Get your prosciutto, grissini and beer from the dozens of counters and then sit and eat all day or all evening. You can also go and visit the factories for brief tours. Free bus services take you around the different factories in the town. Leave a Comment

 Pleasant views around the lake by sierralyndon This idyllic lake is located some way out of Udine, but worth the drive to spend a pleasant afternoon. It is shared between three municipalities (hence the name "tre comuni"), but is more commonly known as Lago di Cavazzo. Leave a Comment

 Basilica delle Grazie by croisbeauty Todays construction of the Sanctuary of Madonna delle Grazie dates from 1730 and later on in the first half of the 19th century. In addition to the sanctuary there is the Convento dei Padri Serviti, a Convent dates back from the 15th century. The Sanctuary was built on the spot of an earlier church from the 15th century, dedicated to San Gervaiso. The interior of one nave sanctuary is very spacious and it preserves valuable paintings of Luca Monteverde and the famous painting of "Beata Vergine". Leave a Comment

 Il Palazzetto Veneziano by croisbeauty Il Palazzetto Veneziano, the Venetian Haus, was reconstructed in 1910, after it was pulled down to make the space for Palazzo d'Aronco. Originally, the palace was built in the 14th and 15th century and during the reconstruction works the original parts of the marble were preserved. However, the reconstruction did not respected the original proportions of the building, therefore it looks "stretched" now. Leave a Comment

 Duomo of Gemona by sierralyndon Gemona is a hillside village north of Udine. It was completely destroyed by an earthquake which hit the region in 1976. Hence practically the whole village was rebuilt. So it has a very "new" feeling as you walk along the hilly streets. Noteworthy sites here include the Duomo and just enjoying the spectacular view of the mountains from up close. Leave a Comment
