The former Convent of the Annunziata in Sestri Levante
The former Convent of the Annunziata in Sestri Levante from an unusual perspective.
When you arrive at the point where I took this photo, normally, your gaze and your lens point to the Bay of Silence.
This time, however, I looked for a new perspective in the imposing Convent, built by the Dominican friars, which dominates the Bay.

The original convent was built in 1469 by the Dominican fathers, who had already established their base in the Genoese complex of Santa Maria di Castello since 1442. The structure is located on the extreme tip of the Sestri Levante peninsula, overlooking the sea on three sides: two towards the Baia del Silenzio and one towards the open sea of the Gulf of Tigullio.

I took a lot of photos in the town of Sestri Levante and you can find almost all of them here or by searching in the various article specific to the Ligurian city.
I refer you to the very well-kept and always updated website for the tourist promotion of my Sestri Levante: sestri-levante.net. This is the official website of the town's municipality: comune.sestri-levante.ge.it.
If you are looking for a nice portal that talks about all of Liguria I invite you to visit the official website of the Region: lamialiguria.it.
