WI_e2045_106.jpg

View from a spot near Granarolo down to the historic centre and the harbour of the capital city of Liguria. The protected harbour has been used since ancient times. It had a major importance for the great explorations of past centuries, and is still one of the busiest harbours in Europe. The importance of the city in finance and economics goes back to medieval times.
