A complex and diverse world of art, churches, shrines, but also palaces, civic buildings and monuments that bear witness to the creativity, prosperity and intricate history of this territory. Genoa, the capital, shows works of art of an exceptional value.
Architectural styles are intertwined: from Romanesque to Gothic, from Baroque to rococo, from liberty to rationalism. There are a lot of museums, many of them linked to maritime activities.
Moreover, leaving the sea behind, you enter on tiptoe in towns and villages which have remained unchanged over the years with their narrow streets, houses and stone bridges.
The museums tell both the history of these places and the priceless wisdom of craft creations such as the art of paper, of iron, filigree and wood on the western side, and the production of embroidery, lace, silks, damasks and velvets, together with the manufacture of slate on the eastern side.
