One of the most beautiful villages in Liguria, sometimes considered the sixth of the Cinque Terre, is located a few kilometers from La Spezia.
Here too the colorful houses, a little higher than the other villages, overlook the small port.

Where is Portovenere:
In 1997, Porto Venere, together with the islands of Palmaria, Tino, Tinetto and the Cinque Terre, was included among the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
