I Visited a Beautiful European Village

I visited a European village in 2024.

Cinque Terre is a famous place in Italy. It has beautiful water, coastlines, and villages.

There are five villages: Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. They are connected by a trail.

The villages have old buildings, settlements, and beautiful paths.

I visited each village for a day. I took the train from La Spezia.

You can stay in the villages, but it's expensive. Staying outside is a better option.

Here's what you need to know to visit Cinque Terre.

Cinque Terre has five villages: Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore.

The villages are in the Italian hills. They were hard to reach in the past.

Cinque Terre means 'five lands'. It has been around since the medieval era.

The region is still hard to reach, but it's very romantic.

You can reach Cinque Terre by car, train, plane, or boat. The villages have narrow roads.

If you drive, leave your car in La Spezia's train station.

The train is the best way to reach the villages. It connects them to Pisa, Rome, and Genoa.

If you come from Florence, change trains in Pisa. If you come from Milan, change in Genoa.

The Cinque Terre Card covers train travel and hiking fees.

You can also fly to Pisa or Genoa and take the train.

The airports have easy train connections to La Spezia.

In the summer, you can take a ferry to Cinque Terre.

Cinque Terre is easy to reach from Genoa or Pisa.

August is the peak holiday season. Prices are higher then.

The best time to visit is September or October. It's cooler and less crowded.

If you want to swim, visit between May and September.

The hiking trails are open from March to October.

Cinque Terre has a big nativity scene and five villages.

Riomaggiore is the southernmost village. It's romantic.

The Via dell'Amore starts in Riomaggiore.

The path goes to Manarola. It's a 20-minute walk.

Manarola is on a rocky outcrop. It has vineyards and a church.

Climb to the top of Manarola to see the church.

Corniglia is in the middle of Cinque Terre. It's 100 meters above the water.

You can see all five villages from Corniglia.

Vernazza is a beautiful village. It has a harbor and restaurants.

Vernazza has olive groves and a church.

Monterosso is the biggest village. It has beaches and olive groves.
