One of the enchanted places in Liguria is San Fruttuoso di Camogli.
The other day I went to see it and I couldn't help but photograph it.

Where is the abbey located:
The Abbey of San Fruttuoso di Capodimonte is a Catholic place of worship located in the bay of the same name in the municipality of Camogli, a place also called Capodimonte, within the terrestrial and marine park of Monte di Portofino. The church is the seat of the parish of the same name of the vicariate of Recco-Uscio-Camogli of the archdiocese of Genoa. The abbey is dedicated to Saint Fruttuoso of Tarragona, a Catalan bishop and saint of the 3rd century, whose ashes are preserved at the abbey, where they were supposedly transferred following the Arab invasion of the Iberian Peninsula.
