A heritage of artisan figures and historic trades tied to the everyday life of old Genoa, from the making of candied fruit to the tonnarotti, tuna fishermen who later emigrated to Sardinia. These vanished or vanishing trades tell the story of the city's productive and cultural identity.
Sito storico

Borgo
Bergeggi and its little island

Ancient fortified village in a panoramic position on the Savona coast, facing an uninhabited island and marine nature reserve, a destination for kayaking and snorkelling.
Boccadasse and Genoa's seafront promenade
An old fishing hamlet absorbed into the city of Genoa, Boccadasse retains its coloured houses, a small beach, and the starting point of a seafront promenade that stretches eastward, away from the urban centre.
Bussana Vecchia
Sanremo (IM)
A hilltop hamlet in the municipality of Sanremo, built on the ruins of a village abandoned after the 1887 earthquake, now a lively artists' colony home to international craftspeople and artists.
