A glimpse of the modern arcades of Lavagna.
Lavagna, located in the heart of the Gulf of Tigullio, is a town that combines the charm of tradition with touches of modernity. Its arcades, which wind around the main streets of the center, are a perfect example of how contemporary architecture can enrich the urban landscape.
Some are very typical and ancient, with slate elements. Others are much more recent and modern (like the ones in the photo of this post) like these on Via Nuova Italia.
The arcades of Lavagna are characterized by materials such as stone and decorated with beautiful mosaics, which give an elegant and refined look. These arcades offer ideal shelter from both the summer sun and the winter rain, making it pleasant to walk around the city in every season.
Under the arcades, there are numerous shops, cafes and restaurants that invite you to stop for a break. This covered path is always lively, with residents and tourists mingling, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere. It is the perfect place to go shopping, enjoy a coffee or simply observe the city life.
The porticos are not only an architectural element, but also a meeting point for the local community. Here, the inhabitants of Lavagna meet to shop, chat and enjoy a moment of relaxation. This makes the porticos a dynamic and social place, where you can breathe the authentic atmosphere of Ligurian life.
For those visiting Lavagna, a walk under the porticos is an experience not to be missed. In addition to offering a unique view of the city, they allow you to discover hidden corners and architectural details that tell the story and culture of this fascinating Ligurian village.
