Riddles trade in neoclassical details. Along the Canal Grande, trivia drifts past moored boats toward the blue-domed church of Sant'Antonio, with James Joyce's Trieste never far away. Then the grand finale: Piazza Unità d'Italia, the largest sea-facing square in Europe, framed by palazzi and open to the Adriatic wind.
