Genoa presents itself as a lively harbor city. Today, it serves as a popular destination for visitors, its rich architectural legacy narrating the tales of its past grandeur. In the 12th and 13th centuries, the Republic of Genoa held sway over the Mediterranean, an influence that can still be felt presently. Behold the verdict beauty of the Romanesque Cathedral of San Lorenzo, with its intricately frescoed interiors and distinctive black-and-white striped exterior. Take a leisurely stroll through the city’s slim lanes that lead you to squares brimming with monuments and the Walls of Genoa, historic fortifications that safeguarded the city of Genoa.
