Genoa, a port city and capital of Liguria, is historically renowned for its important role in maritime trade over many centuries.
Known as one of the most extensive medieval historic centres in Europe, Genoa’s historic centre is a maze of alleyways (caruggi) that open unexpectedly onto small squares, often linked, like the churches that overlook them, to important noble families.
The spirit of Genoa resides precisely in the alleyways, where smells, flavours, languages and diverse cultures mix together.
In the historic centre stands the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, in Romanesque style with a façade of white and black stripes and frescoed interiors. Narrow streets lead to monumental squares such as Piazza de Ferrari, with its characteristic bronze fountain, and the Carlo Felice opera house.
Not to be missed and iconic is the Aquarium of Genoa, the largest in Europe. The exhibition route features over 70 environments and approximately 12,000 specimens from 600 species, from all the seas of the world. An unforgettable experience for young and old alike, which will fill your heart with emotions and a deep respect for the sea and its extraordinary inhabitants.
It is also impossible to overlook Genoese culinary tradition, with the legendary basil pesto, famous throughout the world, and focaccia, which can be savoury like focaccia with olives, onion and tomato, or also sweet and filled.
The accommodation is 9 km from the airport and 1.2 km from Genova Principe station.
