Visit Friuli-Venezia Giulia
The Friuli-Venezia Giulia region occupies the north-east corner of Italy, just to the east of Venice-Veneto.
The region has the stunning dolomites as a backdrop and contains the important city of Trieste.
Near Trieste be sure to visit the Grotte Gigante - the largest (visitable) cave system in the world.
The eastern part of the region contains the architecturally interesting town at Udine, the colourful town at Gorizia and the impressively located Cividale del Friuli.
Also in the region are some very fine ruins at Aquileia, bringing to mind its important role as a centre of Roman Italy.
