WHAT
Udine is a town with squares of Venetian charm and ancient buildings: from Piazza Libertà, defined as "the most beautiful Venetian square on the mainland", to Piazza Matteotti (or Herbal) which, all surrounded by porticos, seems to be an open-air lounge; here you can observe the slideshow of ancient and colourful historical buildings which impart the spirit of Udine.
On the hill of the town rises the castle : from its walls you can see the whole city, the mountains all around it, whereas to the south, less than an hour's drive away, there is the Adriatic Sea.
In the eighteenth century, Udine was the city of Giambattista Tiepolo who reached his artistic maturity here: today, his masterpieces can be admired in the Gallerie del Tiepolo (in the Patriarchal Palace), in the Duomo (Cathedral), and in the Chiesa della Purità. Today, Udine is a city that is open to innovation while tying its image to authentic taverns where one of the most-loved rituals is celebrated namely, the tasting of a goblet of wine (tajut) all in a very human and cordial atmosphere.
Friulian cooking, cultural events and traditional festivals (such as Friuli Doc), make of Udine an inviting place for an unforgettable holiday or weekend break.
HOW
Udine is 1 hour and a half by car from Venice and 1 hour from Udine and Tarvisio (on the border with Austria and Slovenia).
I suggest you to park at the Parking Piazza I Maggio and, from there, to follow this tour.
In the description of this video you’ll find the best tips on where to eat and where to stay overnight.
If you are in Udine, do not miss the opportunity to also visit Cividale del Friuli and Palmanova.
WHY
Visit Udine if you want to see fascinating Venetian style squares and fine old palaces, without being surrounded by mass tourism.
