ΥΠΑΡΧΕΙ ΚΑΤΙ ΠΙΟ ΡΟΜΑΝΤΙΚΟ ΑΠΟ ΤΟ ΝΑ ΧΑΘΕΙΣ ΣΤΗΝ ΓΈΝΟΒΑ?
Sandwiched between the mountains and the sea, Genoa is a concertina of a city, and full of surprises. Expect ridge-top forts, cable cars at dizzying heights, and tunnels burrowing under Unesco-listed palaces. Porto Antico, the redesigned waterfront, is centre stage, framed by bars built into ancient arcades and the superb Aquarium. The city centre is mostly pedestrianised, and made up of a maze of medieval streets called carrugi. Look upwards to discover secret friezes and frescoes. Sample the local fish grill, pasta and pesto, accompanied by Ligurian white wine. Let the city wash over you; Genoa is more a city of more senses than just sight.
