The small village of Loto in Liguria

Il borgo di Loto

The small village of Loto in Liguria.
Among the villages and hamlets in the Sestri Levante area there is also one called Loto.
It is located along the road that passes through San Bernardo and rejoins the one that goes to Libiola and Montedomenico.
Just before there is also the detour that leads to Selva.

Il borghetto di Boccadasse.
Un’altra bella foto del borgo marinaro genovese di Boccadasse. Lo splendido borgo che in molti avranno già visto e che finalmente sono riuscito a visitare e a fotografare qualche giorno fa.

Boccadasse (Boca d’azë or Bocadâze in Genoese) is an ancient seaside village in the city of Genoa, which is part of the Albaro district. In the current administrative division of the municipality of Genoa it is therefore included in the Municipio VIII – Medio Levante, which in addition to Albaro also includes the Foce and San Martino districts.

Boccadasse, the pearl of Genoa on the sea

Boccadasse, la perla di Genova sul mare

Boccadasse, the pearl of Genoa on the sea.
A small enchanted village a few steps from the center of Genoa.
From here the villages probably end to leave space for the real city.
It is not the most beautiful photo I took today (I will publish the others slowly) and it is not even the classic image of the small fishing village but I also liked this one a lot.

Vicoli di Bonassola

Bonassola

Vicoli di Bonassola.
Era diverso tempo che mi proponevo di fare la passeggiata (ciclopedonale) tra Framura, Bonassola e Levanto.
Realizzata ristrutturando il tratto della ex ferrovia arriva a Bonassola, uno splendido borgo marinaro che si affaccia sul mar Ligure. Realizzerò un post separato per questo percorso.
Era, credo, la prima volta che lo visitavo e quindi ho scattato diverse foto che spero vi piaceranno!

According to some historical sources, the toponym of the town derives from Bulnetia or Bodetia, names that appear in some writings of the early Middle Ages. Other sources, considered more valid, would instead lead to the ancient term Vallis Bonazolae, indicating that coastal area between the present-day towns of Framura, to the west, and Levanto to the east.

The beautiful Manarola in the Cinque Terre

Manarola

The beautiful Manarola in the Cinque Terre.
I hadn't been able to visit Manarola lately. Yesterday, thanks to a beautiful September day, I filled the gap and went to the Cinque Terre to take some more photos.
It may not be the most fascinating of the five but it's still really worth a visit!

Vista di Portofino.
Tra le tante località rivierasche che ho fotografato negli ultimi giorni mancava senza dubbio Portofino. Ecco fatto! Oggi gita nel porticciolo e tante foto che piano piano inserirò qui. Questa è sicuramente una delle più belle in hdr. La vista del porticciolo dal sentiero che posta al castello.

Il modo migliore per apprezzare le meraviglie del parco è quello di percorrere in sicurezza i suoi sentieri più caratteristici ed affascinanti, tutti adeguatamente segnalati. Attraversandone la fitta rete di oltre 60 km, è possibile scoprire la ricchezza e la varietà degli ambienti naturali, dei panorami e dei complessi monumenti del promontorio.

The square and the houses of Varese Ligure

La piazza e le case di Varese Ligure

The square and the houses of Varese Ligure.
The very famous Ligurian village and the characteristic little houses of the circular square in the center, which perhaps cannot be seen much in the photo, are arranged in a circle around the castle.

The birth of the Varese village has its origins in the strategic position at the crossroads of the trans-Apennine roads leading to Parma and Tortona. The roads that start from Sestri Levante and Luni to Varese Ligure found easy access to the Po Valley, with the consequent creation of a trading market.
