Cinque Terre: A coast of color

4/17/2015

 
We decided to visit Cinque Terre in mid-March before Easter weekend kicked off the tourist season.

Vernazza

These colorful towns are scattered along rugged coastline overlooking the Ligurian Sea. 


Visitors come to relax on the beaches, wander the hiking trails, and indulge in the regional cuisine.
.On our first afternoon we took the train to Monterosso, which is divided into two parts: old town and new town.

New town appeared as a typical beach scene of sun bathers, boardwalks,
 and frozen drink stands.

Day 1: Monterosso and Vernazza

The name Cinque Terre stands for “Five Lands”, representing the five coastal villages that make up the national park. 

Each town is protected by a series of hills, which have hundreds of terraces built up into the land filled with lemon trees and grape vines.
