Rivarola street in the historic center of Chiavari

Via Rivarola a Chiavari

Rivarola street in the historic center of Chiavari.
If it is not the most beautiful street in Chiavari it is probably the second.
Certainly less busy (with people) and easier to photograph.
Porticoes on both sides of the street, or rather of the alley, and arches galore.
It seems like a beautiful photo like many I have taken in Chiavari.

Lavagna e Chiavari da Sant’Anna

Lavagna e Chiavari da Sant'Anna

Lavagna e Chiavari da Sant’Anna.
Quando si sale fino alle Rocche di Sant’Anna, lungo la antica via Aurelia che passava sopra alle attuali gallerie stradali, si gode di una splendida vista sia su Sestri Levante a Levante sia su Lavagna e Chiavari a Ponente.
Con il mio teleobiettivo, in una giornata non molto afosa, è uscito anche uno scatto decente nel quale, nonostante la prospettiva sia rimasta un pochino schiacciata, si vede bene il porto di Lavagna e la Colonia Fara.

[ENG] Lavagna and Chiavari da Sant’Anna.
When you climb up to the Rocche di Sant’Anna, along the ancient Via Aurelia that passed over the current road tunnels, you can enjoy a splendid view of both Sestri Levante in the Levante and Lavagna and Chiavari in the Ponente.
With my telephoto lens, on a not very sultry day, a decent shot came out in which, despite the perspective being a little squashed, you can clearly see the port of Lavagna and the Colonia Fara.

Qualche tempo fa sono stato a visitare il Parco Rocca a Chiavari.
Camminando lungo le aiuole e le fontanelle ho trovato questo scorcio: la vasca con le tartarughe in basso (se guardate bene la foto se ne vede persino una), lex Chiesa di San Francesco (ora Auditorium), piazza Matteotti e in fondo Corso Garibaldi.

The arcades of Corso Garibaldi in the center of Chiavari

I portici di Corso Garibaldi a Chiavari

The arcades of Corso Garibaldi in the center of Chiavari.
This is a street in Chiavari that is a little more modern than the Carrugio Dritto, let me explain.
While in the carrugio there are historic shops and stores, along Corso Garibaldi there are more offices and homes.
The buildings are also larger and have more floors (perhaps because they are newer) and the arcades and arches are also higher.
However, these are still very beautiful, even if in a different way.

The alleyway of via Bighetti in the center of Chiavari

Il carrugio di via Bighetti a Chiavari

The alley of via Bighetti in the historic center of Chiavari.
The street parallel to the straight alley of Chiavari also has some very beautiful porticos and perhaps even older and more particular.
They are lower in height and darker but at the same time have a more lived-in appearance.

Arco di via Rivarola a Chiavari.
Camminando tra i portici di via Rivarola molti sono gli angoli che si prestano ad essere fotografati.
Alcuni archi sembrano forse simili ma, guardando bene, non c’è un arco uguale all’altro.
Ogni palazzo ha i suoi colori e le sue forme caratteristiche, degli archi ma anche delle colonne.
L’ardesia la fa sempre da padrona e la si nota bene dal colore scuro.

The steps of the Villa Rocca Park from above

The steps of the Villa Rocca Park from above.
A few months ago I posted a couple of photos of this staircase taken from below.
This one is the same element taken from above.
I like the lines of the double staircase and also the cobblestone pavement of the space at the bottom of the descent.

The connection between the garden and the park was created at the time of the extension, through a monumental staircase equipped with a nymphaeum placed on the axis of the palace at the entrance from via Costaguta. On the basis of historical documents it is clear that this space constituted the original garden, while the hill above was cultivated.

Palazzi in piazza Mazzini a Chiavari.
Una delle piazze più belle di Chiavari è proprio in centro e cosa la rende così bella sono i palazzi storici che ne delimitano i lati, almeno tre perché in uno c’è l’ex Palazzo di Giustizia.
Un bel contrasto tra il nome che tutti danno a questa piazza, piazza dei Cavoli, e la bellezza di questi palazzi.

The architectural layout remained unchanged until the late sixteenth century; from that time onwards new noble palaces were built within the walls in the contemporary Renaissance style. The choice of the new architectural style was especially evident in the main streets Ravaschieri and Stefano Rivarola where palaces very similar to other buildings in Genoa were erected or revised. From 1648, or perhaps from 1646, it received the title of City from the Republic of Genoa.

Alley of Via Bighetti in Chiavari

Carrugio di via Bighetti a Chiavari

Alley of Via Bighetti in Chiavari
Chiavari is not just Caruggio Dritto but, on the contrary, many of the most beautiful and original views are in the two streets parallel to it.
One is via Rivarola (let's say towards the sea) and the other is via Bighetti.
Here you can see, in addition to the column in dark stone, I think slate, also the arch in the same material and, in the foreground, the typical tiles that, if you notice, cover many of the sidewalks here in Liguria.
I read somewhere, if I remember correctly, that this geometrically decorated tile is actually called chiavarina because the factory that produced (produced) them was in Chiavari.

Of course if someone could suggest (or correct) something more they can do it by adding a comment.
