Friuli Venezia Giulia, Ippolito Nievo's little compendium of the universe

If the aim of an extended Europe is to be united in diversity, then Friuli Venezia Giulia has got there before it. In a place where the Alps and the Adriatic symbolise the two extremes of a multi-faceted and changing landscape, Italian, Slavic and Germanic cultures meet in a sort of melting pot of traditions, languages and religions.

Nearly 8,000 square km of unspoilt mountains, gentle hills and deep blue sea form the contours of a nerve centre of European geography at the crossroad of people and history, a land that rewards the visitor with its richness and that never fails to surprise, no matter what the point of view is.
