Welcome to Genoa, a city of captivating contrasts where a glorious maritime past meets a vibrant present. Get lost in the maze-like alleyways, or 'caruggi,' of Europe's largest medieval city center, where hidden squares and historic shops reveal themselves at every turn. Then, emerge onto grand streets lined with the opulent Palazzi dei Rolli, magnificent Renaissance palaces that are a testament to the city's former wealth. You'll feel the city's deep connection to the sea at the revitalized Porto Antico (Old Port), a bustling hub of museums, attractions, and waterfront promenades perfect for a stroll.
