La Spezia is an Italian city located on the west coast, neighboring Genova and other small cities. Its prime location is home to architectural sites, lush landscape, and a buzzing aquatic life. If you’re looking to make a pit stop on your way to Florence or Milan, La Spezia should be a spot that can’t be missed.

Cinque Terra’s Colorful Buildings

Cinque Terra almost looks like a painting with their vibrant cities descending from the mountain tops. If you want an explanation of the city’s architecture and surroundings, make sure to book a guided tour to hear all the important details.

Visit the Walkway

After visiting Cinque Terra, check out the boardwalk adjacent to Centro Storico and Porto Mirabello for great people watching. It’s a nice time to unwind and listen to the birds squawking in the distance while reading a good book.

Ornate Stores and Scenery

Art is very much alive in the walls of establishments in La Spezia. Even a local pharmacy is delicately designed with colorful tiles and iconic emblems. The heart of Italy is seen through its preserved natural beaches and refined art.
