Liguria, a sea of villages
Liguria’s other ‘sea’: its beautiful villages
In Liguria there is another sea.
A sea of stories, traditions, tastes and colours: a sea of villages to dive into at any time of year. From the inland villages perched high on the rocks to the ‘Saracen’ villages, shaped to defend against pirate raids. From the olive oil valleys to the ancient fiefdoms of the Del Carretto family, the carrugi – the alleyways found in the villages in the Genoa area – to the wineries in the Cinque Terre vineyards and the fortresses in the Spezzino area. Most Beautiful Villages in Italy, Orange Flag Villages, Authentic Villages.
