This UNESCO World Heritage site boasts a historic church perched on the edge of a cliff and a fortress offering panoramic views. The charm of Portovenere is in its raw and rugged beauty, and it is a gateway to the nearby islands of Palmaria, Tino, and Tinetto.
- Lerici is famous for its imposing castle that dominates the landscape and offers breathtaking views over the Gulf of La Spezia. This seaside town offers sandy beaches, scenic hiking trails, and a charming historic center filled with narrow alleys and traditional Ligurian houses.

- Finally, a historical region crossing the border between Tuscany and Liguria, Lunigiana, is often called the “Land of a Hundred Castles.” Its rich history, dating back to the Etruscan and Roman times, has left a legacy of castles, churches, and medieval fortifications scattered throughout its verdant landscapes.
