The authentic heart of Sestri Levante: the caruggio
The authentic heart of Sestri Levante: the caruggio.
Sestri Levante, a pearl on the Ligurian Riviera, is famous for its enchanting beaches: the Baia del Silenzio and the Baia delle Favole. However, to discover the authentic soul of this charming town, you need to immerse yourself in its historic center and walk along the Caruggio, a narrow street that holds centuries of history and tradition.
The caruggio is much more than just a street. It is a journey back in time, a paved street adorned with colorful houses that intertwine with each other. The facades of the houses are painted in bright colors, the windows are adorned with flowers and green shutters and the small traditional shops sell local culinary products and handmade souvenirs. This place exudes authenticity and makes you feel like you are truly in the heart of Liguria.
The Caruggio is also a gastronomic paradise. You’ll find trattorias and restaurants serving Ligurian delicacies, such as focaccia genovese, pansoti with walnut sauce, and of course pesto alla genovese. Stop at one of the small taverns to enjoy a plate of trofie with pesto or a slice of farinata, a type of savory chickpea pie typical of the region.
In conclusion, the Caruggio of Sestri Levante is much more than just a street; it is the beating heart of a community that feeds on history, tradition and authenticity, making a visit to Sestri Levante a truly memorable experience.
