Milena Velba - Hohoho

Autunno sul Rilke

Per i triestini il Rilke non richiede ulteriori spiegazioni... per i non triestini dirò che si tratta di una delle passeggiate più amate, alta sul mare, in un paesaggio mozzafiato, e che deve il suo nome al poeta Rainer Maria Rilke che qui soggiornò e compose le sue "Elegie Duinesi".
Just a few words of explanation. One of the most popular promenades in Triest is called "Rilke path". It is a wonderful path high above the sea, in a luscious vegetation, and it owns its name to poer Rainer Maria Rilke who wrote his "Duino Elegies" here.

The house that divided the two lanes that arise from this open space was characterized by a semicircular shape to that of a people Sailors could not remember the stern of a ship. Recent renovations have replaced the old wall with a form of "orthodox" and common to warrant a "butt" but now compressed always present in the local lexicon had to affix a plaque.
