Travel guide for the Cinque Terre

Cinque Terre - The Cinque Terre are a territory of Liguria which is located on the eastern coast, or La Spezia. It includes five small villages which are: Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. This territory was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1997. The reason lies in the perfect symbiosis between man and the environment.

In fact, the inhabitants of the Cinque Terre have managed to populate a hostile territory, overlooking the sea, working it in terraces thanks to the use of dry stone walls. Tourists who want to visit the Cinque Terre villages should preferably prefer the train, which is the most convenient way to move between the villages. The alternative is to go on foot, a very pleasant activity since there are many well-marked routes that allow you to enjoy breathtaking views. The two most popular routes are the blue path, between Vernazza and Corniglia, and the way of love between Riomaggiore and Manarola. For those who love to sunbathe on the beach, the recommended location is Monterosso, where there are many private and public beaches.
