Cinque Terre (La Spezia)

Head out of town and discover the five stunning, colorful towns clinging to the cliffs along the coast. Hike along the trail connecting them or take a boat tour and see them from the water as ancient seafarers did. Go ashore and explore a picturesque town and its castle. Or visit intriguing Portovenere, another colorful town rising above one end of La Spezia's harbor with breathtaking views and the lovely Church of San Pietro.

Enjoy delicious fresh seafood, focaccia, pickled anchovies and a glass of local wine.

Search for fine jewelry, ceramics, leather goods and artwork as well as olive oil and wine.
