Sights of the Ligurian coast

City of Manarola

The city of Manarola is the oldest and one of the smallest cities of the Cinque Terre. It is located on a cliff near the sea. Its main attraction is the Genoese-style tower houses. The town's houses are located down the slope of the rocky coastline of the Ligurian Sea. The inhabitants of Manarola rely on fishing and winemaking. The local wine of the Sciacchetrà variety is quite famous; even Roman writings noted the high quality of the wine produced in this area.

Castle of the Doria family

The Doria family castle is an ancient defensive fortress from the twelfth century located in the Italian resort town of Portovenere. The castle itself began to be built in the 12th century and since then has been repeatedly completed, destroyed and rebuilt again. According to documents from the 14th century, inside the castle there was a chapel dedicated to St. John the Baptist, of which no traces remain today.

Note! Today, this ivy-covered ancient fortress proudly bears the status of a historical monument, attracting many tourists to Portovenere.
