Genoa - Italian Movie
Trips
This busy port town, with its narrow and seedy medieval
streets opening into broad, pedestrian-only piazzas ringed with palaces,
was the home of Christopher Columbus and has drifters from the world
over. Recently refurbished as one of the Cultural Capitals of Europe,
2004, Genoa has the second biggest aquarium in the world and easily the
busiest and best regulated passeggiata in Italy, where the streets grow
thicker with slow-moving people than Manhattan at mid-day and abruptly
empty into private parties at the appointed hour. Don't miss the
artistic excesses in the palaces of Andrea Doria and others and the
large frescoes depicting the life of Columbus.
