A wonderful holiday between… Cinque Terre and Portofino - riomaggiore uk
Riomaggiore
Leaving from La Spezia, the first village you meet is Riomaggiore.
With its vertical development, the village is crossed by stairs and staircases passing through the houses crowded together with their slate-roofs and their typical colours.
Under the main road the torrent Rivus Maior, which gave the name to the village, flows. In Riomaggiore you meet the famous Via dell’Amore (lovers’ road), the famous footpath carved into the rocks overlooking the sea.
Going through the romantic streetlet leading to Manarola is a wonderful experience: you can admire breathtaking views, listen to the waves breaking on the shores, breath the unmistakable saltiness.
