The gate of the Saline in Rapallo

The Gate of the Saline in Rapallo.
To tell the truth, I didn't even know there was a door in Rapallo and this one in the photo was a real surprise.
It is located at the end of the seafront promenade and you can walk along it to enter the alley.
I read on the town's website that the name comes from some salt mines that were in the area.

If you know something more or want to write me something about it add a comment or go to the bottom of the site to read what other visitors have written.

Where is the gate located:

It is the only survivor of the five gates of the ancient “walled village”, and owes its name to its proximity to the salt mines, of which the Genoese Doria family had a monopoly, which were active for many centuries in the flat area near the beach in the centre of the gulf.

The beautiful and elegant Villa Garibalda in the center of Rapallo.

Here's where exactly I took the photo:

Until the 1990s and 2000s it was in a state of semi-abandonment, but thanks to the restoration of its particular façade and interiors, it has returned to its former splendor with the opening, among other things, of a bar and restaurant on the lower floors.

The beautiful alley of the city of Rapallo in Liguria

The beautiful alleyway of the city of Rapallo in Liguria.
The beautiful town of Rapallo has in its center, like practically all Ligurian villages, its beautiful straight alleyway (or carrugio or carruggio) where the most beautiful shops are located and people take a stroll up and down on non-summer afternoons.
Everyone calls it an alleyway but the correct toponym is via Giuseppe Mazzini.

Caruggio or Carruggio, (a word that in the “official spelling” of Genoese should be written (Caroggio and pronounced Caruggiu, because in Ligurian the O is pronounced U), is the term used to indicate a street or alley, even a portico, typical of Ligurian historic centers. The term derives from the Latin quadrivium, or from the more popular quadruvium.

The Castle of Rapallo

Rapallo Castle.
It is the symbol of the coastal town and you cannot miss it while walking along the seafront.
It was built by the Doge of Genoa to defend the town from the Saracens and in particular from the famous (in our area) pirate Dragut during the Middle Ages.

Walking from Valle Christi Monastery to Rapallo

Passeggiando dal monastero di Valle Christi a Rapallo

Walking from the Valle Christi monastery to Rapallo.
A stroll in the small park where the Valle Christi monastery (or at least its ruins) is located.
A few months ago I went, after a long time that I had been meaning to, to visit it and I was very impressed.
It exudes sacredness but also history and mystery.
I invite you to go and see it, it is very convenient by car.

Doppia sorpresa quindi: interno della chiesa e splendido presepe con tutti i luoghi di Rapallo.
