Il piccolo borgo di Carpenissone in Liguria

The small village of Carpenissone in Liguria.
Some time ago I was in Carpenissone and while I was reaching the small village (maybe village is even too much) I took this beautiful photo immersed in the greenery of the trees.
To tell the truth I was there to taste the ravioli at the famous trattoria La Tagliola.

The center of the village of Vernazza in the Cinque Terre.
Some time ago, in winter, I was in Vernazza and it was almost shocking to walk in such an uncrowded village.
Right in January and with the Sentiero Azzurro closed you can fully enjoy the village.

Here is where the village is located:

In the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance it had its best period, characterized by extraordinary trade that favored its economic prosperity (it was called "the dry port"), still testified today by the numerous buildings in the historic center, worthy of appearing in much larger cities, and the economic growth was accompanied by lively cultural and social activity. Already in 1469, to favor the circulation of money a Jewish banker was called, one of the few professions to which those men were authorized, and despite this he was persecuted and later one of the very first Monti di Pietà was erected, followed later by the Monte Frumentario and various other charitable and welfare institutions.

The Cannara gate of the village of Bevagna in Umbria

La porta Cannara del borgo di Bevagna in Umbria

Cannara gate in the village of Bevagna in Umbria.
Cannara gate is one of the historical jewels of Bevagna, a charming town in Umbria. Dating back to the medieval period, this gate represents one of the best preserved testimonies of the city's past. The structure, with its imposing tower, loopholes and coats of arms, evokes images of a distant but timeless era.
An interesting detail is the central niche, once decorated with a fresco, which adds an artistic touch to the fortified architecture. Inside the gate, you can admire a sundial painted in the 18th century, testimony to the skill and attention to detail of the craftsmen of the time.
Visiting Cannara Gate means immersing yourself in the history of Bevagna and appreciating the timeless beauty of an urban work of art. A symbol of identity and tradition that continues to enchant visitors.
On the gate there is a sundial, which is however very faded, and a plaque in memory of Giuseppe Garibaldi.

The small port of Vernazza in the Cinque Terre

Il porticciolo di Vernazza alle Cinque Terre visto dall'alto

The small port of Vernazza in the Cinque Terre seen from above.
Some time ago, while I was at home, I went to the Cinque Terre to do some trekking. Unfortunately the classic Sentiero Azzurro (the one that goes from Monterosso to Vernazza on the sea side) was closed for maintenance so, with my wife, we decided to try walking uphill to the Sanctuary of Nostra Signora di Soviore and then, once at the top, we went down the path that, passing by Nostra Signora di Reggio, descends to Vernazza.
From above the village of Vernazza is always splendid, don't you think?

The village, which grew along the Vernazzola stream (now covered) which constitutes its central artery, has an exceptionally intact urban fabric, divided into a series of alleys and steep stairways. Above the town of Vernazza, at an altitude of 325 meters above sea level, is the sanctuary of Nostra Signora di Reggio.

The loggia of Piazza Luigi Angelini in Bergamo

La loggia di piazza Luigi Angelini a Bergamo

The loggia of Piazza Luigi Angelini in Bergamo.
Bergamo Alta, also known as Città Alta, is the historical and medieval part of Bergamo, located on a hill and surrounded by imposing Venetian walls, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2017. This area is famous for its cobbled streets, picturesque squares and breathtaking panoramic views.

Piazza Luigi Angelini is a hidden corner of Bergamo Alta, known for its loggia and quiet charm. The square is dedicated to Luigi Angelini, an engineer and architectural historian who played a crucial role in the redevelopment and preservation of the Città Alta in the 1930s.
Luigi Angelini was tasked with improving the condition of the Città Alta while maintaining its historic character. His redevelopment plan included demolishing ruined buildings and creating new public spaces, such as walkways, gardens and markets. Piazza Luigi Angelini, formerly known as Piazza Verzeri, is an example of his work, with the loggia providing a quiet and picturesque passage away from the tourist traffic.

What to See in Bergamo Alta:
Piazza Vecchia: the heart of the Upper Town, surrounded by historic buildings such as the Palazzo della Ragione and the Angelo Mai Civic Library.
The Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore: a splendid Romanesque church with richly decorated interiors.
The Colleoni Chapel: a masterpiece of the Lombard Renaissance, located next to the basilica.
The Campanone (Civic Tower): offers a panoramic view of the city and the surrounding mountains.
The Castle of San Vigilio: located on an even higher hill, reachable by a funicular, it offers spectacular views and a peaceful atmosphere.

Bergamo Alta and Piazza Luigi Angelini offer a fascinating mix of history, culture and architectural beauty.

A glimpse of the seaside village of Boccadasse in Genoa.
Boccadasse is a charming seaside village located in Genoa, known for its pastel-colored houses and its quiet and romantic atmosphere. This small neighborhood, which seems to have come out of a postcard, is characterized by narrow streets, stairways and a small pebble beach where fishermen spread their nets in the sun.

What to see and do in Boccadasse:
The church of Sant’Antonio da Padova: built by fishermen in the 17th century, this church is a place of worship much loved by the inhabitants of the village. Inside, you can admire marble floors of different colors and numerous ex votos that tell stories of rescues at sea.
The small beach of Boccadasse: a small pebble beach where you can relax and enjoy the view of the fishermen's boats and the colorful houses overlooking the sea.
The Türcke Castle: located in Capo Santa Chiara, this medieval-style castle, designed by the architect Gino Coppedè in 1903, offers a spectacular view of the Golfo Paradiso and Portofino.
Ice cream parlors and restaurants: Boccadasse is also famous for its artisanal ice cream parlors and seafood restaurants. It is the ideal place to enjoy an ice cream or a plate of fresh fish while admiring the view.
The Corso Italia promenade: a long promenade that connects Boccadasse to the center of Genoa, perfect for a relaxing stroll overlooking the sea.

The name “Boccadasse” comes from the shape of the inlet on which it stands, which resembles a “donkey’s mouth”. The village is also known as the “village of lovers” for its romantic atmosphere and breathtaking views.
