Liguria, Cinque Terra, Riomaggiore

The southern most village of the Cinque Terra, Riomaggiore lies on the walking path south to Portovenere or north to the next 5T village of Manarola along the famous 'la via dell'amore' (walk of love). Nestled between two cliffs, the town is noted for its vertical buildings that have a lower (front) entrance and a higher (rear) access onto the higher roads behind. Between the two sides there is a lovely characteristic fishing port.
