The famous Vacca Gate at the beginning of the alleys of Genoa
The famous Porta dei Vacca at the beginning of the alleys of Genoa.
Yesterday I was in Genoa and took many photos that I will gradually insert here (and on the page dedicated to Zena).
This is the Porta dei Vacca, the point where Via del Campo, one of the main alleys of the historic center of the city, begins.

Where is the Gate located:
The Porta dei Vacca, originally called Porta di Santa Fede, from the name of the nearby church (deconsecrated in 1926 and now home to municipal offices) and also nicknamed Porta Sottana, in contrast to the contemporary Porta Soprana, is part of the fortification works of the 12th century Genoese city walls.
