Narrow Alley Lined With Wonderful Aristocratic Urban Palazzos in the great maritime trading rival to Venice. We took a slow walking tour down the street, admiring its amazing architecture, mostly from the Reniissance and the Baroque Age. MUST SEE!

While it is hard to get a good view of the building as it is in the middle of very small streets, the inside is quite impressive, and you clearly see the different times of construction / decoration. You can go on the top, and on the way get a cool view of the inside from a high point, then you get a great view of the old town.

Take the funicular to this 600+ meters high Sanctuary. The church is absolutely beautiful with a nice history behind. The views from both the funicular and the sanctuary are unique and gorgeous. Definitely a recommended spot. We have been around many towns in the Ligurian region and Rapallo with the sanctuary, it’s rebuilt port and it’s city centre (with a stop at Eldolz... coffee shop - highly recommended as well) was a nice surprise and a delight to visit.

Nice little medieval town to have a stroll around, some quite steep hills though if you struggle with those. Castle wasn't open when we went, so make sure you get there early as it closes at 5pm! Note the restaurants don't open until 7pm, so we had to eat elsewhere as well. On a plus note, free parking! Worth a visit if nearby looking for sites to visit.

Devastated by an earthquake and abandoned, this unique medieval village has been reborn and is now inhabited by an international artists community.
Reviewed By turtlezurich
It is a whole little authentic medieval village abandoned in 1894 after an earthquake and repopulated by artists in the '60. Ever since it is a secret tourist attraction. It is and exclusively walking area with stone streets and houses. You need good shoes. This romantic landscape consists in half ruins and half artists workshops, boutiques and residences. It has a big restaurant at the entrance and another smaller one in the middle as well as a coffee/bakery shop. It has a romantic atmosphere. You can spend between 1 and 4 hours there, depending how interested you are.

Great cycle path, which runs right next to the sea from Ospedaletti to San Lorenzo al Mare. Great for families and there are lots of places along the line renting bicycles and 4-seater pedal cars. Being an old railway line, it's almost completely flat and passes through tunnels along the route. It gets very busy in the summer, and the occasional 'peloton' pass along very quickly considering the amount of young kids so keep an eye out. Great restaurants in San Lorenzo, and brilliant ice creams at the gelateria in Arma di Taggia which is along the road, though the ice cream is a couple of minutes detour towards the seafront
10. Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta

This is a large Romanesque church intact (with some latter additions). And the old town around is a treat to wander particularly around the city wall.
