Cinque Terre: discovering Monterosso al Mare

Monterosso al Mare is a municipality located in the province of La Spezia, Liguria, Italy. It is one of the five towns of the Cinque Terre and is the largest in terms of area and population.

The town is divided into two parts: the 'old' old part and the 'new' modern part. The old part is a maze of narrow, steep streets, typical of the Cinque Terre, with colourful houses and shops selling local products. It is also home to the church of San Giovanni Battista, one of the oldest churches in the area.

The new part is located in the flatter part of the town and consists of modern buildings, restaurants, bars and shops. The largest beach in Monterosso al Mare is also located here.
