You step off the quay into a square where stone remembers every ruler — the Adriatic breeze nudges the crowd and the guide starts in measured German or English. Over the next 90 minutes the city loosens its layers: Republic-era arches, Roman inscriptions, and Austro-Hungarian façades pass like pages in an open book.
