The ramparts of Palmanova are always a satisfying ride. In the moat, it's not uncommon to spot sunbathing turtles, kingfishers, and a remarkable biodiversity.

Strassoldo is a medieval village that was included in the 2019 list of the "Borghi più belli d'Italia" (Most Beautiful Villages in Italy). With its two castles, Strassoldo represents a rare example of a well-preserved medieval village of exceptional charm. The Strassoldo family is one of the few examples of feudal lords who have remained in possession of the castles since their foundation and continue to inhabit them to this day. The castles can be entered through two entrance gates, and the paths inside are paved. The village surrounding the castle has continually expanded and has been well preserved and restored. Two mills with working wheels are particularly charming, one of which dates back to the 12th century and has been in operation for over seven hundred years.

Porta Cividale in Palmanova - along with Porta Aquileia and Porta Udine, each with their early Baroque outworks, is one of three city gates that provide access to the city through the fortified belt with three rings of fortresses. Palmanova itself was founded on October 7, 1593, as a planned city/fortress with a central square and radial street network in the shape of a nine-pointed star. It was the most important land base and served to protect the Republic of Venice from the Turks. Today it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
