Liguria: Italy’s Stunning Riviera

#centraleurope

Liguria, stretching along Italy’s northwestern coast, is a region of dramatic cliffs, colorful seaside villages, and sparkling blue waters. From the world-famous Cinque Terre to charming towns like Portovenere and Camogli, Liguria feels like a living postcard. I loved wandering through narrow alleys, discovering pastel-painted houses, and enjoying breathtaking views of the Ligurian Sea at every turn.

Food in Liguria is unforgettable — fresh seafood, pesto alla Genovese, focaccia, and trofie pasta make every meal a highlight. Hiking the trails between villages in Cinque Terre offers panoramic views of terraced vineyards and the coastline, while boat trips provide a unique perspective of the cliffside villages.

Tips: Trains and ferries connect most coastal towns, making car-free travel possible and stress-free. Visit early in the morning or late afternoon to avoid crowds in Cinque Terre. Comfortable shoes are a must for walking the steep streets and trails.

📍 Location: Liguria, Northwestern Italy
🕒 Best Time to Visit: Spring and early autumn for mild weather and fewer tourists
