Prione street in the center of La Spezia: the alleyway
Prione street in the center of La Spezia: the caruggio.
In all the Ligurian towns and villages there is always a main street full of shops and bars where people spend their afternoons walking up and down and it is always nicknamed caruggio (or carrugio).
In La Spezia this street is called via del Prione and it is a beautiful street of about a kilometer, pedestrian, which goes (more or less) from the train station to the public gardens overlooking the sea.

The territory of La Spezia was already inhabited in prehistoric times, as evidenced by the numerous stele statues and the finds from the Bronze and Iron Ages found on various occasions on the heights of the Gulf and the adjacent valleys. Later, in historical times, the territory saw the settlement of the Ligurian populations, subdued in 155 BC by the consul Marco Claudio Marcello.
