About the City

The city is located in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region in the North East of Italy. Its name derives from its location “port on the river Noncello”. It also has a rich history, dating back to the Roman era, so there are plenty to see.

One of the main attractions of this city is that it’s off the beaten track in terms of tourist destinations, so you can expect an authentic Italian experience when visiting.
