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.
Do you know the Cinque Terre?

Where I took this photo:
The final part of via Nazionale towards the centre of Sestri Levante.
One of the busiest streets in my Sestri is definitely via Nazionale. In addition to crossing practically the entire town of Sestri longitudinally, it is the street that hosts the greatest number of businesses and shops.
This is its final part, one-way, just before the roundabout of Piazza Sant’Antonio.

This is the point from which I took the shot:
A beautiful villa in Corso Buenos Aires in Lavagna.
Corso Buenos Aires, in Lavagna, is that long tree-lined avenue that goes from the center to Entella and Chiavari.
It hosts the most beautiful houses and villas in the Tigullian city.
Like this beautiful building, whose name I don't know, however.
In the next few months I will post many others that I have recently photographed.

Via Asilo Maria Teresa in Sestri Levante.
Via Asilo Maria Teresa is a street located in Sestri Levante, a picturesque town in the Liguria region of Italy. This street is home to several businesses and services.
This street is well located in the center of Sestri Levante, making it easily accessible and ideal for a stroll among shops and restaurants.
Via Asilo Maria Teresa is named after Asilo Maria Teresa, a historic educational institution located along this street. The kindergarten was founded to provide education and care to children in the local community. The name “Maria Teresa” is likely a tribute to a prominent figure, perhaps a benefactor or an important person linked to the history of the institution or the town.
Sestri Levante is a picturesque town located on the Riviera di Levante in Liguria, Italy. It is famous for its two bays: the Baia del Silenzio and the Baia delle Favole, the latter named in honor of the writer Hans Christian Andersen who stayed there. The town offers a fascinating mix of natural beauty, with enchanting beaches and a historic center rich in history and culture.
Sestri Levante is also known for its cultural events, such as the Andersen Festival, which celebrates storytelling and street theater. It is an ideal place for those seeking a combination of relaxation, culture and breathtaking scenery.

Strolling through the splendid alleyway of Sestri Levante.
In winter, the period in which I took this photo, it is not that difficult to walk through the Sestrese alleyway and meet practically no one.
It is probably the best period to enjoy the centre of my town calmly and take some beautiful photos like this one.

Here is the spot where I took this photo:
Via del Prione ovvero il caruggio della Spezia.
The centre of La Spezia is crossed, for almost its entirety, by this pedestrian street called Via del Prione.
For us Ligurians this type of street is called caruggio (even if it is slightly wider than normal, the caruggi are just a little less bright); in other regions it is called via dello struscio or dello shopping.

If you want to see all the photos I took in the city click here:
The territory of La Spezia was already inhabited in prehistoric times, as evidenced by the numerous stele statues and the finds from the Bronze and Iron Ages found on various occasions on the heights of the Gulf and the adjacent valleys. Later, in historical times, the territory saw the settlement of the Ligurian populations, subdued in 155 BC by the consul Marco Claudio Marcello.

Un bel palazzo in Corso Colombo a Sestri Levante.
Cerco sempre di pubblicare fotografie di cose meno comuni e not di Sestri Levante (anche se la maggioranza delle mie foto ritraggono sempre la Baia del Silenzio).
In questo caso un bel palazzone, in Corso Colombo, proprio di fronte alla casa dove nacque Giovanni Descalzo.

The Archivolt of Via Gerolamo Boccardo in Genoa
Walking along the beautiful Via XX Settembre in Genoa, as I have already written to you many times, I almost always keep my nose in the air to enjoy all the beauty and details found there.
Just like this beautiful archivolt (or perhaps it is more of a terrace) that unites these two buildings, giving rise to the short street dedicated to an illustrious Genoese: Gerolamo Boccardo.

Here is where the archivolt is located:
Gerolamo Boccardo (Genoa, March 16, 1829 – Rome, March 20, 1904) was an Italian economist and politician. He was a senator of the Kingdom of Italy in the XIII legislature. After completing his high school studies, in 1844 he enrolled in the Faculty of Law at the University of Genoa, but the political commitments he soon took on made him delay his graduation, which he obtained only on July 2, 1849. In 1847 he was elected president of the Società Entellica di Chiavari, recently moved to Genoa. During this period he worked as a journalist at the Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, working to promote the transformation of the newspaper from an exclusively commercial newspaper to a political and economic newspaper.

The central Viale Dante in Sestri Levante.
The straight road that starts from the historic center and branches off until it reaches the Gromolo stream.
In this stretch, on the left of the photo, the town's elementary schools.
The pavement has recently (a few years) been renewed and restructured and now hosts both a short cycle path (not very functional) and these little trees.

Uno scorcio di via Ciovasso a Milano.
L’ultima volta che sono stato a Milano mi sono perso nella zona del quartiere che una volta era chiamato Contrada dell’Orso poco distante dalla famosa zona di Brera.
Una parte antica della città meneghina molto caratteristica.

Where is the street located:
Vicolo Ciovasso, che deriverebbe dal latino volgare clivacium (da cui il termine dialettale milanese civàss, ovvero “declivio”) con chiaro richiamo al fatto che la strada, un tempo, scendeva fino alle mura romane di Milano, le cui fondamenta erano collocate in un avvallamento. Altra ipotesi vorrebbe che “Ciovasso” derivi dal nome di una famiglia nobiliare milanese, i Civasso.
