The buildings overlooking the port in Piazza Caricamento in Genoa.
One of the most popular squares in Genoa, even if almost no one notices it because it is only a place of transit between the Porto Antico (the aquarium) and the historic center (the alleys).
With beautiful old buildings, almost all well renovated.

Here's where the square is located:

The square, built in 1839 as the terminus of the new coastal road named after King Carlo Alberto (now Via Gramsci), was called Caricamento starting in 1854, when it became the terminus, intended for the loading and unloading of goods related to the port, of the railway designed as an extension of the Turin-Genoa line to serve port traffic. Numerous photographs from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries show the square crowded with carts pulled by donkeys, oxen or horses, waiting to load or unload goods of all kinds.
