most interesting places in “Five
Lands” is the name of landscape between
the two extreme promontories “Punta
Mesco” and “Punta of Montenero”,
here ,five villages Monterosso,
Vernazza,Corniglia,Manarola,Riomaggiore
make up the renowned Cinque Terre.Over the
years,the people have succeeded in
imposing their will on this difficult
landscape through terrace cultivation
consisting of narrow strips of land on the
hillside or sheer cliffs called
“fasce”.Man has had to build countless
short dry walls “muretti” and steps to
support the steep strips of land.From a
research carried out by naturalalists it
seems that,over thousands of years,the
inhabitants of the Cinque Terre have
carried out an enormous task in
constructing and repairing these famous
short dry walls “muretti”.So much so
that the two-metre-high,eleven thousand
kilometer long network of dry walls is
comparable to the Great Wall of China.
There is a daily boat service,which allows
you to move about from Lerici to
Portovenere and from Monterosso,Vernazza
and Rio Maggiore and admire the whole of
the Cinque Terre coastline and other
places nearby. Ask your quotations
