Miramare Castle Park 🇮🇹

#traveldiaries I spent a beautiful afternoon at the Miramare Castle Park near Trieste, and it was such a peaceful escape! 🌿 The park surrounds the stunning Castello di Miramare, and entry to the grounds is free, so you can stroll around as long as you like. The gardens are lush and well-kept, with paths winding through dense trees, flowerbeds, and fountains. The views of the Adriatic Sea from the cliffs are breathtaking, especially at sunset. I even spotted a few swans gliding through the ponds—it felt like something out of a fairy tale. There’s plenty to see inside the park, from the tiny greenhouses to the statues scattered around, but my favorite spot was the small pier where you can sit and watch the waves roll in. The castle itself is worth visiting too if you’re up for a tour. After the park, I took a short drive into Trieste to enjoy some gelato by the harbor. If you’re in the area, Miramare Castle Park is perfect for a relaxing, scenic day out. #miramarecastle #triesteadventures #italiangardens #seasideviews #natureescape #friuliveneziagiulia
