Vicolo di Varese Ligure

Vicolo di Varese Ligure.
Un bello scorcio di Varese Ligure nella parte a Ponente del Torrente Crovana.
Non sono sicurissimo ma credo che questa parte del borgo sia chiamata il quartiere Grecino, come il ponte che lo collega con il centro della cittadina.

Borgo Rotondo in the historic center of Varese. Commissioned by the Fieschi family for the control and defense of the Varese territory, it is made up of identical stone houses arranged along the perimeter which, with an elliptical shape, enclose the two main squares (Piazza Fieschi and Piazza Castello), where the commercial activities, warehouses and laboratories were located in the underlying porticoes.

The Grecino Bridge in Varese Ligure

Il ponte Grecino a Varese Ligure

The Grecino bridge in Varese Ligure.
In Varese Ligure there are two most famous symbols: one is obviously the round square (from which the town's nickname Borgo Rotondo derives); the other is certainly the Grecino bridge (or Grexino).
This 16th century bridge is truly impressive, as is the small district that serves to reach it, also called Grecino.
