To see all the photos I took in the village click here:

Between the 7th and 8th centuries, following the conquest of Liguria by the Lombards, the Columban monks of Bobbio, who followed the rule of Saint Columbanus and continued their work of evangelization, built a monastery that over time grew to become a religious and economic nerve center. The birth of Brugnato is therefore linked to the foundation of the abbey which, like other monastic sites in Liguria and northern Italy, depended on the abbey of San Colombano di Bobbio.

Uno scorcio del centro di Santo Stefano d’Aveto.
La scorsa estate sono stato a fare una breve gita nella splendida località “montana” di Santo Stefano d’Aveto.
Un borgo che, vista l’altezza degli Appennini, ha anche un impianto sciistico.
Ovviamente in estate diventa un luogo per passeggiate e camminate.
Questo è uno dei vicoli che attraversano il piccolo centro storico.

Uno scorcio di Camogli, il bel borgo marinaro in Liguria.
Appena dietro la basilica di Santa Maria Assunta e al castello della Dragonara c’e’ un piccolo agglomerato di casette con qualche vicoletto quasi segreto.
Questo e’ quello che vi troverete di fronte passeggiandovi con l’immancabile filo per stendere i panni, posto tra una casa e quella di fronte, tanto comune nei borghi di mare.

Qui vi lascio anche un paio di video, che ho realizzato sempre in quel giorno, nel porticciolo di Camogli:

The most significant architectural aspect of the town is the presence of colored buildings overlooking the beach. The colors and the lighter horizontal lines (called string courses) served the sailors of Camogli to more easily recognize their home among the various floors of the buildings in the village and return there after fishing.

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.

Il ponte romano nel porticciolo di Bogliasco, in Liguria

Il ponte romano nel porticciolo di Bogliasco, in Liguria

Il ponte romano nel porticciolo di Bogliasco, in Liguria.
Uno dei punti più fotografati del piccolo borgo marinaro di Bogliasco e’ sicuramente il porticciolo ed il ponte romano.
Che poi il ponte, come molti della mia regione, viene chiamato romano ma e’ di costruzione medievale (magari costruito su uno precedente romano, come quello di Riva Trigoso).

On the official website of Cultural Heritage I then found other interesting information: here.

It is the first municipality you come across when travelling from Genoa towards the Riviera di Levante, in a small inlet at the mouth of the river of the same name. Among the reliefs of the territory there is Mount Cordona (803 m) along the ancient path to the hamlet of Sessarego and Mount Rotondo (789 m). The beaches alternate with deep and characteristic cliffs. It is possible to practice surfing there. The hinterland is typical of eastern Liguria, partly with strips of olive groves, with the possibility of excursions.

One of the Ligurian seaside villages with the most creuze and alleys that I can remember visiting.
In the province of La Spezia and perched on a small promontory overlooking the sea, it has a small labyrinth of stairs, arches and alleys in which it is wonderful to get lost.
