Sleepy seaside swagger
Genoa may be somewhat sleepy, but it's the stuff sweet dreams are made of. Sitting pretty on the Italian Riviera, the city's tiers of terracotta coloured houses hover over the clear blue sea and shine in the year-round sunshine. Take a holiday in Genoa City and you'll discover sweeping panoramic views, chic beaches and mouth-watering Italian food.
Ancient Genoa has a proud history that stretches back to the medieval times. Once the seat of a great maritime empire, its wealth bestowed it with the architecture usually reserved for a much bigger city and earned it a spot on the UNESCO World Heritage list of protected sites. If you needed any further convincing, it is also the home of pesto and boasts some of the most incredible pesto dishes in the country. A dream destination just waiting to come true.
